High Praise Indeed - Brother Garvey

It gives the Joeys team, teachers, management and Alumni great encouragement when you send out a newsletter (which you can read by clicking here) and get a response like this from Brother Garvey.

Brother Garvey is the Christian Brothers European Province Leader.

It is particularly encouraging that Brother Garvey took the time to read through all the articles and watch all the videos including the 1hr + St. Josephs open night live stream recording. Thank you Brother Garvey.

Dear Dave,

I have just watched the Admissions Promotional Video.

It is a great presentation and the students were exceptional.

It is great to see how a school is moving into the twenty-first century while not losing sound traditional human and educational values.

Through working with our English Schools – including two AGMs this morning – I have become even more aware of the huge contribution that has been made by our school leadership and staffs. This came through in the St. Joseph’s presentation and I congratulate all for staying safe and continuing the life of the school. You are all heroes in our challenged society.

Thank, you, Dave, for sharing this with me. But because I watched every minute of the video, I now have to make up time! It was a fascinating picture of the life of a modern school. Congratulations to all.

I should say that Joey’s must win the prize for the commitment and engagement of the Past Pupils.

Kind Regards,

Edmund Garvey
