Three Principals

Parish of Collingwood celebrates 150 years of St Joseph's Primary School. With the launch of the well presented History Book, the Principal, Mrs Patricia Taylor, writes,

"Our school had humble beginnings in the 1850s and 60s when a number of early schools, established by private individuals, merged to form St Joseph’s School on the current Otter St site. These schools were run by dedicated teams of lay principals and teachers.

In December 1891, the Sisters of Charity came to Collingwood and remained at St Joseph’s until the end of 1993 when I took the reigns as the first lay principal since 1890." >Read more


Fr Peter Hoang celebrated the 150th Anniversary, school and parish community Mass, where the children formed the choir. Various dignitaries attended and the school was opened to invite all present to view the various photographic and historical displays. Many past teachers and past pupils relished the occasion.
