On Tuesday the 28th of August, two teams of talented students from St Joseph's participated in the Netball Gala Day which took place at Jamison Park in Penrith.
Our junior team which consisted of students from Year 3, Year 4 and Year 5 were victorious, winning five games and losing three. This team displayed true sportsmanship and teamwork on the field, working together to claim five victories on the day.
In addition to the success of our junior team, our senior team which was made up of students from Year 6 went undefeated and won in their division, taking home brand new shiny medals.
All in all this was a fantastic day of sportsmanship, participation and teamwork; a whole lot of fun was had by all of the students who participated. Congratulations to our talented students on their sporting success!
A special thank you to the parents who came along and assisted in coaching the team, your ongoing support is greatly appreciated.

“Father, into your hands I commend my spirit.” Luke 23:46 Today our St Joseph’s community pauses to remember Good Friday, the day Jesus gave his life on the Cross out of love for the world. Good Friday invites us to reflect on the depth of Christ’s sacrifice and the power of selfless love. Through his suffering and death, Jesus showed us what it truly means to forgive, to serve others, and to love without limits. We remember that even in the darkness of the Cross, hope remains, because God’s love is stronger than sin and death. May this sacred day encourage us to live with compassion, kindness, and faith as we journey toward the hope of Easter. 🙏🏻

Our Kindergarten students had a wonderful time at our Kindy Monster Party! The day was filled with excitement, laughter, and lots of learning through play. The children enjoyed a range of fun party games including Pin the Eye on the Monster, Musical Chairs, and a Monster Disco with a disco ball and glow sticks! They also got creative making their very own Monster Biscuits (which were delicious!), and Monster Masks, showing off their wonderful imagination! Our Kindy students worked together during a Monster Scavenger Hunt out on the playground and they had a fantastic game of Monster Bingo. Throughout the celebrations, we also shared and enjoyed a variety of wonderful monster stories, sparking imagination and a love of reading. It was so lovely to see our youngest students engaging, collaborating, and having so much fun together. We are sure everyone will sleep well last night!

As part of our Canberra trip, year 6 visited the Australian war memorial, exploring Australian wartime history. They engaged with exhibits and participated in reflections to understand the personal stories behind the conflicts. We all paid our respect to the service men and women who sacrifice so much for us every day.
