The St Joseph’s College Difference
At St Joseph’s, we strive for quality in everything we do.
We have educated generations of young people, shaping futures in a Catholic context. We embrace every student as an individual and value accomplishments across all areas including academic, sporting, artistic and creative achievements.
Today, the College came together for the annual Interact Club's Shave for a Cure fundraiser, held alongside the SJC Cross Country and Explosion of Colour Run.
The College’s Interact Club and the 13 students who participated have so far raised thousands of dollars for the Leukaemia Foundation as part of the World's Greatest Shave, with donations continuing to come in.
The day also included a bake sale, crêpe stand, sausage sizzle, Crochet Club stall, face painting and the 'Guess the Lollies' fundraiser, with every activity helping to support the cause.
Congratulations and thank you to all the students and staff who helped make this year's fundraiser such a success. What a wonderful achievement.
SJC's annual Shave for a Cure has become a much-loved College tradition, with the largely student led Interact Club playing a key role in bringing our community together to support those affected by leukaemia and other forms of cancer while raising vital funds for research.
A sincere thank you to the hairdressers for generously donating their time throughout the morning. Your support helped make the event such a memorable success.

CONFRO & QISSN 2026 BEGINS
With the Queensland Independent Secondary Schools Rugby League and Netball Carnivals just around the corner, today was a big day for our SJC teams.
At the assembly this morning, our students received their official 2026 playing apparel and were joined by special guest and SJC alumna Jada Ferguson, who helped present the jerseys and dresses ahead of next week's carnivals.
As a four-time QISSN representative for SJC, Queensland State of Origin player, NRLW Premiership winner and Brisbane Broncos star, Jada knows a thing or two about pulling on a team jersey and giving it your all. Thank you, Jada, for taking the time to join us and help mark this special occasion. It was a fantastic opportunity for our students to meet someone who once represented SJC at QISSN and has gone on to achieve success at the highest levels of the game.
With the apparel sorted and Brisbane in sight, the excitement is building as our students prepare to proudly represent Joeys next week.
A huge thank you to our incredible 2026 sponsors and the dedicated staff members who will accompany and support our students as they represent SJC in Brisbane next week.
The Team behind The Teams
Ms Debbie Newton, Mr Mitchell Wheeldon, Mrs Karyn Morrison, Miss Taylor Steinmuller, Mr Cameron Love, Ms Bridget Kenny, Mr Thomas Moore, Mr Jim Brennan, Mr Tim Stone, Mr Andrew Fitness, Mr Joseph Cryle, and Mrs Jess Lawrence.

Last week, our Year 11 Modern History students welcomed back St Joseph's College alumnus and Vietnam War veteran, Mr Greg Brady (Class of 1963), for a special guest speaker session.
Returning to the same school he graduated from more than 60 years ago, Mr Brady shared his experiences of military service during the Vietnam War, offering students a firsthand perspective on a chapter of history often explored only through textbooks.
Through personal stories, photographs, letters sent home during his deployment and service medals, students gained a deeper understanding of the realities of war, service and sacrifice.
Adding a personal connection to the visit, Mr Brady is also the grandfather of SJC teacher Mrs Taylah Hodgkinson, whose students had the privilege of learning directly from his lived experience.
We thank Mr Brady for returning to SJC to share his story and helping students connect with history in a deeply personal and meaningful way. ... See MoreSee Less
