We have a number of Specialist Areas at St Joseph's, that enhance the children's creativity and artistic expression.
Physical Education
Being active helps our students maintain health and happiness throughout their life. Our PE teacher, Karen Gilchrist, is passionate about maintaining children's physical fitness and developing their skills to allow them to participate in any sport into the future.
Auslan - Signing Language
Our Auslan teacher, Bridgette Haysom, encourages our students to be able to converse with the hard of hearing in a meaningful way.
Visual Arts
Mel Kecskes is a passionate art teacher who works at a number of schools and is committed to her students' developing their artistic skills - attributes that will allow them to enjoy art activities throughout their lives.
Science
Bridegette Hasysom rotates her specialist time between Science and Auslan. This subject allows students to see the real world and understand the Scientific concepts behind them.
Digital Technology/Media Arts
Ange Richards is an Arts and Technology specialist who works with students throughout the year to deepen their understanding of digital technologies and creative expression. In Media Arts, students explore the art of filmmaking and bring ideas to life through motion-based projects. Through Digital Technologies, they learn how devices connect and operate, develop coding skills, and gain insights into artificial intelligence and its role in our digital world. Ange’s innovative approach empowers students to think critically, create boldly, and embrace the possibilities of technology in everyday life.
