Our Story
St Joseph’s School History
The Order of Sisters of St Joseph of the Sacred Heart came to Waroona in 1943. There were strong Irish and Italian communities in the district who were keen for their children to receive a Catholic education and so St. Joseph’s Catholic School was opened by the order.
Sr. Elizabeth Murphy was the foundation Principal and the sisters maintained a presence in the school until the end of 1993. The first lay Principal, Mr. Tim Emery, was appointed in 1988.
