Our school is a place of belonging - we value respect, compassion, gratitude and creativity and we're passionate about social justice and the sustainability of our world.

We're a welcoming and inclusive community that is working with you, your child's first educator, to raise the hearts and minds of our young people.

The close-knit family nature of our school community means we know each child, their family and their unique needs personally, and give each of them the individual support and skills required to face the world of tomorrow.

St Joseph’s School Barmera firmly believes that education is the key to success, and that everyone should have access to a quality education.

We provide:

We are committed to creating a learning environment that is inclusive and respectful of all individuals and backgrounds, and that promotes a sense of belonging to the community.
