THEME : READ GROW …INSPIRE…

An amazing amount of creativity by our students (and their parents/ grandparents) went into last year’s costumes of BOOK characters and we eagerly await even more participants this year.  

Students - start thinking about the BOOK character you want to come as. 

Please choose a character from any BOOK. 

The judges will be instructed to choose the most original costume from a BOOK and the student who gets into character in their behaviour and manner in the parade. 

Happy Planning! 

Saint Joseph's Junior School has emerged victorious in the recent ADPSSA Inter School Cross Country Carnival held at the Grammar. The first time the Junior School has won in ten years!! The school's team of talented runners put up a stellar performance, leaving behind their competitors from several other schools to claim the top prize.

The carnival, which is an annual event, was attended by students from Grammar, Bethel, ACC, Parklands and included students from Year 3 - 6. The Saint Joseph's team, had been training hard for the event for several weeks. Students had a well-planned strategy to push themselves all the way to the finish line and executed it to perfection on the day of the race. The team's runners displayed exceptional endurance, speed, and determination which helped them gain an edge over other competitors.

The Saint Josephs team's victory was a result of their collective effort and determination to succeed. The school's runners displayed excellent teamwork, supporting and encouraging each other throughout the race. It was evident that they had put in a lot of hard work and dedication. The college would like to recognise the efforts of the following students for their outstanding effort on the day:

1. Luke (Yr 3) Champion Boy
2. Mason (Yr 4) Champion Boy
3. Sophie (Yr 4) Champion Girl
4. Benji (Y 4) Runner Up Boy
5. Suri (Yr 5) Champion Girl
