In 2021 I welcome back to St Joseph’s Primary School, Camille Sargeant and Kristy Haberfield from family leave.  I also welcome back Kara Ward (returning from working in Broome, WA) and Jeff Vizon as learning support officer.

Jim Guinan (current Deputy Principal) will conclude his deputy principal tenure at the end of this year and will return to St Joseph’s in 2021 working with our Literacy team 2 days per week.  I would also like to take this opportunity to inform you all that in 2021 Mrs Monica Currer (Literacy Leader) will reduce her support to a part time role.

I especially thank Jason McDonough for his outstanding support to our facility team this last term while Nigel Gray was on leave for term 3.  Nigel will return in term 4.

Andre Pangrazio (Learning Support Officer) who is currently on 12 months leave while taking part in a music writing scholarship, has now officially resigned.

I also again welcome Laura Dunn to Grade 1, room B1 for Term 4, replacing Melanie Alexander who is currently on leave.
