“Each one of these students will be welcomed to St Joseph’s College as part of our community and we greatly look forward to bringing them into what we do at St Joseph’s,” said Mr Goodman.

Mr Goodman also welcomed everyone to 2021 on behalf of all staff.

“We hope that our community had a wonderful break, taking the time to refresh by spending time with family and friend over the festive period,” said Mr Goodman.

St Joseph’s College is proud of its student representatives this year, who will be led by College Captains Mitchell Berg and Jemma Bradshaw.
