LAST week Mr Clery had the opportunity to accompany St Joseph's two school captains, Brad Forsyth and Amelia Seymour and two prefects, Phoenix Carroll and Yolanda Such to the Grip Student Leadership Conference in Tamworth. This was a wonderful opportunity for our young leaders to learn about this discipline where they were challenged to get out of their comfort zone.
