St Joseph’s Gloucester aims to provide opportunities to develop and cultivate leadership qualities within all students.

We aim to instil in our students, a strong sense of social justice through the service of others. Because of our small nature, all students in Year 6 are eligible to be school leaders. They must be willing to represent the school at community events and lead the school community at various times during the school year.

From time to time, the students will represent the school at regional and diocesan events also.

All school leaders are presented with their LEADER badges during a special ceremony in Catholic Schools Week early in Term 1.

Student leaders take great pride in leading the three sporting houses at St Joseph's:

• Lorikeets (Yellow)
• Bellbirds (Blue)
• Rosellas (Red)

Students are allocated to a sporting house upon enrolment. Children from the same family are allocated to the same team.
