Curriculum

St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School prides itself on its commitment to providing a quality, holistic education to all students. Part of this commitment involves developing a sound curriculum based on both government and Catholic Education requirements. 

At St Joseph’s School, students are exposed to a broad range of learning experiences. We believe that as we live in a rapidly changing world experiencing many environmental and social challenges, it is vital that students are given the conceptual and practical tools which will enable them to take their place as fully functioning members of an increasingly complex society.
