Our virtual school tour is now available for families who are looking to enrol their children at school but would prefer not to come on a physical tour at this time.

Your may have seen the trailer for the school tour on our Facebook page http://www.facebook.com/StJosephsTranmere/ 

The virtual tour is also available on our school website http://www.stjotran.catholic.edu.au/ 

We invite you to share the tour with any of your friends and families who are looking to enrol their children at school.  There is a school fee discount for any school family who secures a new enrolment for the school (the discount applies for the first year the new family attends the school).

Winter appeal still on and needed

This winter, your commitment to helping those experiencing disadvantage and poverty is still very much needed and appreciated.

The Winter Appeal supports the notion that ordinary people are able to make an extraordinary difference in the communities where they live. The inspiration to do what matters is all around us. The Spirit to feed, heal, shelter, nuture, inspire - the power to change lives- is in everyone.

The St Vincent de Paul Society has launched its Covid-19/Winter Appeal to help people experiencing disadvantage. As the impacts of job losses due to Covid-19 are realised and more people reach out for assistance, the organisation needs your help to ensure our local Conference members and volunteers can continue their work supporting the disadvantaged in our community.
