Facilities

A well-resourced rural school with welcoming classrooms and grassy, spacious playgrounds, Merriwa School presents as a motivational learning environment for their students. Technology resources feature prominently in each classroom and the school’s musical resources are of a very high quality and are used within a tutoring program operated by the Upper Hunter Conservatory of Music.

Curriculum

A comprehensive Religious Curriculum set by the Maitland-Newcastle Diocese is implemented across all classes within the school. This subject is taught alongside the six key learning areas as stipulated in the NSW Board of Studies Syllabuses. Students are taught by example to become problem solving and forward thinkers and to demonstrate an appreciation of the environment and their responsibility for its preservation. Curriculum differentiation is considered a priority for teaching staff as they design programs to meet each student’s specific individual needs.

School ethos

St Joseph’s Primary School is a community of Catholic faith, where the uniqueness of each student is nurtured and valued and one where students are empowered and challenged to be lifelong learners with optimism and hope for the future.
