St Joseph's School
About our Parish School
St Joseph’s is the primary school of the Hawthorn Parish. As a community we gather, worship and celebrate regularly at the Immaculate Conception Church with Fr. Des Dwyer, our Parish Priest. At St Joseph’s we embrace our mission to proclaim Jesus’ message of God’s love for all, to see the contemporary world with imagination and a particular hope-filled view of the human person and all of creation. We invite our students to make sense of their world and their lives within a faith community that is faithful to the mission of Jesus.
Since its beginning in 1854, St Joseph’s has had a proud history of providing quality education to the community of Hawthorn, in Melbourne’s inner East. The school is characterised by a strong sense of community and commits to a personalised approach to learning and teaching, aimed at students reaching their full potential.
More information about St. Joseph's School is on their website, including their Child Safety policies.
