SECONDARY

Our School offers a rich secondary educational program within the context of a Christian environment which is based on respect for the self, others and the environment while nurturing each individual’s personal relationship with God.

An education at St Joseph's School will equip your child to be a life-long learner, able to meet future challenges with increased confidence. Through a strong pastoral care program, we endeavour to provide a learning environment in which the spiritual, intellectual, physical, social and emotional needs of each child are met.

In Years 7 to 10 we offer a range of learning experiences aimed at providing a strong foundation for future years. Students are enrolled in Religious Education, English, Mathematics, Humanities and Social Studies, Science and Physical Education and Health. Opportunities exist for study in a variety of courses such as Outdoor Education, Food, Wood, Construction and Italian.

In the Senior school (Years 10 to 12) students have access to a number of pathways involving ATAR, General and VET courses. These include:

  • University
  • A vocational educational pathway (CRTAFE)
  • Workplace Learning Program
  • ViSN – eLearning experience

We encourage our students to value the many opportunities that are offered to them at St Joseph’s School, not only in their academic studies but the vast range of co-curricular activities. The da Vinci Program and Drama pursuits, in addition to our MaJEC program, sporting and cultural programs, enable our students to experience success with all of their talents.

St Joseph’s School has a close relationship with the Northam Residential College so that our Boarding students experience close communication between school, boarding school and home.
