All positions have been filled and we are thrilled to announce our full time teaching positions for 2016 have been filled by Mrs Robyn Wilson, Mrs Catherine Kruze and Mrs Wendy Rheinberger and our part time term one position by Miss Sarah Cudmore.

Sarah joins the St Joseph's staff after impressing us in her role as a relief teacher.

Sadly at the end of 2015 we will farewell Miss Amanda Bale who has accepted a full time role at St Edward's.

Amanda has been an integral part of our team and we wish her all the best for the future.

The PreLit, MiniLit, MultiLit and Comprehension programs come to an end this week.

These programs have had a profoundly positive effect on the learning of many St Joseph's children in the last four terms.

An enormous thank you to Mrs Thompson, Mrs Payne and Miss Allan for the roles they have played in helping so many St Joseph's children.
