Who does St Joseph’s Primary School, Schofields sing for?
They “sing for the Wanderers’’ and this week the Western Sydney Wanderers Football Club paid them a special visit to thank them for their support and also announced them as the ‘Wanderers School of the Year’.
Former Year 6 students Tyronne Brown, Aidan Gosling and Brayden Cauchi entered the Western Sydney Wanderers School of the Year competition last year in a bid to demonstrate they are the Wanderers’ biggest fans.
“We are so happy and excited the school has won Wanderers School of the Year,’’ Aiden said.
As a result of winning the competition, the school was rewarded with a Western Sydney Wanderers Expo, which included a range of activities including a coaching clinic hosted by players, jumping castle, face-painting, poster-signing and photo opportunities.
The visit also featured two members from its powerchair team. Andy Waite and Ben Keyte come out especially to meet Kindergarten student Cruz Leite, who is a huge fan.
St Joseph’s Principal Lesley Studans said the event was really wonderful for the school.
“It has done wonders for our school spirit and highlights to the students that when you try your best you can get rewarded,’’ Mrs Studans said.
“It also reinforces our school values of ‘Together We Can’, which is all about our sense of community and working together as a team to achieve a goal.’’

Uncle Ted from Jarara came out to visit today, we sat together and talked about their culture. The stories that shaped their people, the land that holds their history, and the totems that carry meaning through generations. Uncle Ted shared what he knew, and the students asked lots of questions, and found new ideas connecting their identity. From those conversations, a creative spark took hold. Together they explored ways to bring those ideas to life through art sketching and painting. It became a meaningful exchange: culture passed on not just through talking, but through making.

Yesterday, a contingent of our Year 6 Faith in Action team participated in LIFTED Junior. This was an opportunity for students to encounter Jesus through music, testimony, discussion and prayer. The event allowed students to explore and deepen their faith and reflection on how their personal gifts call them to mission and service. It was wonderful to see our leaders so engaged in this important part of their faith formation.

Sleep is far more than just a nightly reset; it is an essential building block for a student's academic, emotional, and social success. When children get the recommended hours of sleep, their brains are better equipped to consolidate memories, process new information, and maintain focus throughout the school day. Click on the link for St Joseph's School TV and learn how sleep can affect their happiness.
