Parents/Guardians are the primary educators of their children. Here in St. Joseph’s we value co-operation and regular contact with parents. We have an active Parents’ Association that meets regularly throughout the year. The association provides that crucial link between parents and the school giving members the opportunity to keep abreast of school activities and developments. Membership is open to all parents/guardians. The Parents ‘Association is the parent consultative body on the development of new policies and participates in fundraising activities which enhance the teaching and learning of the students.

A report on Board of Management meetings is also circulated. The Principal attends each meeting. On occasion, there is a presentation by an invited speaker on some aspect of school life and development. Early in each academic year, the Parents’ Association holds their A.G.M., to which all parents are invited. At this meeting all parents are encouraged to join the parents’ association. We strongly encourage parents to get actively involved in the life of the school and the Parents’ Association gives a great opportunity to do so. Alternatively, you can contact the school directly if you are interested in becoming a member of our Parents Association.
