The History of St Joseph's Primary School, Wyndham
On St Joseph’s Day, March 19th 1964, the Mother General of the Sisters of St Joseph, Mother Adrian, her assistant Mother Leone and teaching Sisters Maureen, Joseph and Fergal (Margaret Lambert) arrived in Wyndham to open a Catholic School.
The sisters were to live in the presbytery and Fr Carl Boes, soon replaced by Fr Binno, lived in the garage until a presbytery was built.
School commenced in the Church, now the pre-primary building. In true Kimberley style the desks went by mistake to Darwin and the Church seats were used instead. School commenced on the 31st of March 1964.
