Our Special Catholic Character
St Joseph
Heart of Service Award
We are honoured to have St Joseph as our patron saint. St Joseph’s story reminds us that greatness is found in faith, service, and love.
Each year, we celebrate St Joseph’s Feast Day, honouring him as our protector and role model.
We also have a special award in his name. The Saint Joseph Heart of Service Award, and it is the most prestigious recognition given out during our term, celebrating students who embody the spirit of compassionate action and genuine global citizenship just like St Joseph.
This is not just an award for volunteer hours; it is a recognition of students who authentically live our core values by actively making a tangible, positive difference in the world around them.
