Dear families and friends,
|
Last Sunday was the first Sunday of Advent. Advent is a very important part of the Church's year when we are waiting and preparing for Christmas. At St Francis, we have been talking about Advent at our Monday morning assemblies for the past three weeks. Key themes that we have shared include; Hope, Joy and Peace. Next week we will talk to the children about Love.
|
Our End of School Year Mass is next Wednesday at 9:00am in the undercover area. We will also be celebrating the graduation of our 2019 Year 6 students and the presentation of yearly awards. We hope that families and friends can join us for this very special celebration.
|
Our school structure for 2020 will look a little different from this year as we will have a Transition/Year 1 class, a Year 1/ Year 2, Year 3/Year 4 and a Year 5/Year 6. We are still welcoming new enrolments. Class lists will be available from the 22nd of January.

On Wednesday evening the School Board met for the final time this year. At the meeting, both the School Uniform and the Pastoral Care and Wellbeing policies were ratified. I would like to take this opportunity to thank the members of the school board for their time, energy and contributions to the school for our children and the support and guidance they provide to me.
