Welcome to St Joseph’s Catholic Primary School’s Website.
Thank you for considering our wonderful school as the learning community that you wish your child to attend. We look forward to the contribution your presence will make to what is one of the best schools in Mackay.

Our Website offers you an opportunity to learn more about St Joseph’s and the principles and values that underpin the educational culture we believe in and promote. In no small way our educational aim is guided and framed within the Catholic ideals of Faith, Hope and Love-which has its full expression in the message and call of Jesus Christ. The faith life of our school is taken seriously and is seen as an opportunity to develop and educate the whole child. Our motto: With Christ We Grow, is the rallying cry of our educational endeavour here at St Joseph’s. Everyone called to this endeavour can be positively influenced to make a difference and be renewed in their understanding of the world and God’s call to make a positive difference.

We believe that every child that comes to St Joseph’s is unique, valued and capable of learning. Children have unlimited potential and they all have gifts, interests and personal qualities that can be utilised to make the most of any learning opportunity. St Joseph’s exists to support families help children discover the wonder of learning and the call to use their gifts for the betterment of themselves and others.

Our School’s Patron : Saint Joseph- Foster Father of Jesus- personifies the context of the Catholic Educational Culture we try to create here, namely that our school welcomes, protects and teaches children to be life-long learners that are invited to be followers of Christ.

I commend the Website to you and welcome you to our community.

God Bless.
