Welcome to St Joseph's Catholic School, Mount Isa

Why choose a Catholic school?

Choosing a school is an important decision for your child and your family. With a strong focus on student wellbeing, inclusion and excellence in all pursuits, our school community is vibrant, proud and highly regarded within the wider community.

Catholic school students:

• experience belonging — We believe the best way for students to get the most out of their schooling is to feel connected to their peers, their teacher and their school community.
• experience opportunity — With access to excellent resources and expert teachers, we create real opportunities for students.
• experience the dedication — Our Catholic school teachers are dedicated to delivering the best faith-based educational experience to every student.
• experience our difference — Catholic schools focus on the whole child, encouraging growth in all aspects of a well-rounded education including social, spiritual, cultural, environmental, sporting, creative and academic.
• experience their best — Every student's 'best' is different, and we work collaboratively with parents to help students realise their potential.

Education at its best

We see our students as individuals, developing and discovering their talents at their own pace. Our role is to support and guide them, teaching them the knowledge and tools they need to succeed. Our Inclusive Education Team allows us to differentiate for student ability, helping children develop competence at their own skill levels. Our Indigenous Education Department works with students, families and the community to establish partnerships for successful learning.

St Joseph's offers state-of-the-art facilities, including an impressive library and indoor sport and performing arts building, expert teachers and specialist subjects to give your child a high quality educational experience.
