St Francis of Assisi opened its doors in 1981 and has since grown and developed significantly into a thriving community with approximately 850 students. Considerable focus has been placed on policies and practices to ensure that the spirit and vision of the Christian story should permeate throughout the whole of the curriculum. Our vision and mission are linked to our learning and teaching policy where we offer an holistic education with an emphasis on meeting individual needs. Our comprehensive curriculum is enhanced by our extensive specialist program that includes ICT, library, Italian, drama, music, visual art and music. Our caring culture provides the children with a safe and secure environment, with recently upgraded facilities, in which to learn. There are well-developed adventure playgrounds for the children, four multi-purpose courts, an oval and much more. Here at St Francis' we believe every person is special. To that end, we aim to create an atmosphere where children can grow in richness, fullness and integrity. We believe this can be achieved in the knowledge of God's love for each of us and by an increasing awareness of and response to His presence in our lives.
