Our fundamental aim at St Joseph’s is to assist pupils in their personal faith journey by providing an education for all our children in which the spirit of Christ permeates the whole life of the school.  As our mission statement suggests, “It is the role of the school to work actively in partnership with parents to foster the spiritual, educational, social and personal development of all our children”. Everything that the school teaches is centred on its Self-Evaluation Framework of the 5W’s, which are Word, Worship, Welcome, Welfare and Witness.

Our Catholic life is the cornerstone of our school community. Daily prayers, regular Masses, and Religious Education are integral parts of our curriculum, providing children with the opportunity to deepen their relationship with God and live out their faith in their everyday lives. We encourage our children to embrace the teachings of Jesus Christ, fostering a spirit of compassion, kindness, and respect for others. As Pope Francis reminds us, “The world tells us to seek success, power, and money; God tells us to seek humility, service, and love.”
