Welcome to our College

The vision of St Joseph's College is to provide a Catholic education that pursues excellence in holistic learning. The College was established by the Christian Brothers in 1875. There are four campuses – the main campus at Gregory Terrace, Waterford Place (Year 10s), 10ha of sporting facilities at Tennyson and Outdoor Education Centre at Lake Maroon.

Gregory Terrace is the home to both state-of-the-art and historical facilities that reflect the history and the continuing development of the College, the heart of which is our Spring Hill campus.

Academic Excellence

Gregory Terrace has a tradition of striving for excellence in the classroom and for celebrating academic achievement. This spirit of striving and application has seen Gregory Terrace’s academic performance remain consistently high. The 2020 Senior cohort continued the College's legacy of outstanding results under the new Australian Tertiary Admission Rank (ATAR) system. Just as strong results are recognised, so too is improvement and students being the ‘best that they can be’.

Co-curricular

Co-curricular activities are a key aspect of the holistic education provided at Gregory Terrace. St Joseph's College is consistently among Queensland’s leading schools in areas as diverse as debating, cross-country and rowing. The College has a proud sporting tradition and offers a wide range of sporting pursuits, including rugby, football, gymnastics, cricket, rowing, swimming, athletics, volleyball and basketball. St Joseph's College has a strong music program. Boys from Years 5 to 7 are provided with musical instruments and lessons while older students are encouraged to learn a musical instrument or continue with tuition. There are a large number of bands, ensembles, orchestras and choirs.

Pastoral care

A key facet of the caring environment at St Joseph's College is its House system. On arriving at Terrace, students are placed in one of nine Houses under the direction of a House Dean. The Houses, which cater for students from Years 5-12, are divided into Tutor Groups, each led by a staff tutor, with the Year 12 students cast as role models. The interaction across the year levels builds on the relationships developed between the younger and older students that are established from their first day at Terrace.

Exceptional Learners

The student body of the College includes a number of students with special educational needs for whom provision of effective education programs and resources are required and supported.
Students may be in one or many of the above situations. Gregory Terrace makes a concerted effort, through the Exceptional Learners program, to ensure that the needs of each of our students are understood and catered for, so that they may be challenged, supported and thrive within our learning environment.
