Our School

St Joseph’s Warragul is a Catholic primary school situated one hundred kilometres from Melbourne in the rolling hills of West Gippsland.

St Joseph’s believes that developing caring and nurturing relationships is at the centre of all we do, underpinned by a strong awareness of Christian values.

We are committed to creating a safe and nurturing culture for all children in our school environment.

We are committed to Child Safety and hold that the care, safety and wellbeing of children as a central and fundamental responsibility of Catholic education. This commitment is drawn from and inherent to the teaching and mission of Jesus Christ, with love, justice and the sanctity of each human person at the heart of the Gospel.

The staff at St Joseph’s are dedicated, professional and focussed on meeting the needs of all children at our school.

Parents are encouraged to be active participants in the life of the school and there are many opportunities for parents to be involved.

We believe that children learn best when in an encouraging, stimulating and supportive learning environment.

We also have trained literacy and numeracy intervention teachers and teacher aides to assist children who struggle in these important areas.

We are also situated next to Marist Sion Catholic Secondary College. P-12 Catholic education is offered to families in close proximity.
