St Joseph’s Regional College is a school that endeavours to provide a quality Christ-centred learning community catering to students from Years 7 to 12. 

We acknowledge that parents are the first and primary educators of their children. We partner with parish, community and families to enable each student to reach their true potential with academic, sporting, cultural and social success opportunities.

St Joseph’s Regional College is a caring, inclusive community renowned for our pastoral care, emphasising knowing each student and growing their unique potential.

We value a safe, supportive, inclusive school community, and we teach students respect for themselves, their families and the community as they learn to be mature, responsible and compassionate young adults who can adjust and embrace challenges.

We understand that students are more likely to achieve their potential when their overall wellbeing is nurtured, and we encourage our students to have a strong sense of pride in themselves.

Our teachers are committed to providing our students with a Contemporary Learning experience, encouraging collaboration, creativity and critical thinking skills that inspire life-long learning. 

We invite your family to become part of our wonderful school community.

Parent Testimonials

'Our boys were very hesitant about going to St Joseph’s Regional College as all their friends from St Agnes Primary were heading off to another school. It was during COVID that they began their Secondary school journey, so their introduction to St Joseph’s Regional College was far from normal. As parents, we had our concerns also as we had never set foot on the school grounds due to restrictions. Our concerns were put to rest very soon. After a few weeks, the boys loved their new school environment and started thriving with so many wonderful opportunities available to them.

St Joseph’s has a great sense of community, and you are made to feel very welcome whenever there is an event, parent-teacher, or any other gathering at the school. Teachers are dedicated and go above and beyond to further our boys' education.

As a family, we could not be happier with our choice to send our boys to St Joseph’s Regional College.' - Duff Family.

'Our family feels very blessed to have our daughters attend St Joseph’s Regional College. Our eldest daughter graduated a few years ago. Jorja is currently in Year 12 & Millie is heading into Year 9 in 2024.

The Principal, along with the college teachers and staff, are very dedicated to providing a great education, helping all students reach their full potential, and bringing a sense of belonging to all the students and families.

The opportunities the college offers the students are amazing, and my girls have enjoyed trying and learning new things. Overall I believe the college is a community of caring students, teachers, and parents that always show kindness and guidance to my children.
