St. Joseph's Primary School, Leeton

St Joseph's Primary School Leeton is a Catholic Primary School nestled in the centre of town. The Josephite Sisters founded our school in October 1917. The school opened with nearly one hundred students in classes from Year One to Year Six. From these foundations stem our strong Josephite traditions. The school offers a warm, welcoming and safe environment for the children. St Joseph's is a Catholic School centred on the teachings of Jesus. Quality teaching programmes offer all students the opportunity for growth and success. The St Joseph's school spirit is evident in the way parents, teachers and students interact and work together for the betterment of the children and the school. Parents are actively involved in many facets of school life. Communication between parents, staff and students is encouraged and valued. The classes range from Kindergarten to Year Six and the school is a learning environment for our students in a caring and suppportive way. Many varied programmes allow for students who have special skills or talents and programmes exist for students who need extra support. A thorough assessment tool is used in Year One in Literacy and Numeracy to identify students at risk and programmes are in place to cater for these students. At St Joseph's we value a community which supports and nurtures children as today's children, tomorrow's adults.
