Principal's News
Dear Parents and Guardians,
On the last day of Term 1, I would like to take a moment to express my gratitude for your ongoing support and commitment to our school community. It has been a busy but rewarding term, filled with learning, growth, and fun-filled experiences for our students.
I would like to give a shout-out to our dedicated teachers who spend countless hours working behind the scenes to ensure our students are provided with a safe, happy environment to access high-quality teaching every day. This break offers us all a chance to rest, rejuvenate, and spend quality time with loved ones.
Nuts reminder.
Just a reminder that our school is a nut-free environment. Recently, we have had a couple of instances where products containing nuts have come into school. Can you please check to ensure all products sent to school are nut-free. I thank you in advance for helping to keep our students safe.
Open Days
We are fast approaching the enrolment period for 2025. Our school & ELC open days are Thursday, 9th of May and Wednesday, 29th of May. We will host school and ELC tours from 9:30-11 am and 3:30-6 pm on both days. You will soon see road signs out advertising these days over the holiday break. You do not need to book an appointment on these days and times. Just turn up for a tour and an information pack.
The most significant contributor to enrolments in the school is our current parent body's word of mouth. Can I please ask you to like and share our material on Facebook during this period and encourage any parents interested in potential enrolment to come along on one of these days. We can also accommodate visits on other days, with notice, if these days and times are unsuitable by calling the front office on 62924500.
The Catholic Schools' official enrolment period is from 1st -31st May. We are already beginning to receive enrolment enquiries and applications for Kinder 2025, which have been submitted through our school website. Enrol Now! @ St Francis of Assisi Primary School - Calwell. If you are currently enrolled in a Catholic ELC, you must complete a new Kindergarten 2025 enrolment through the above link.
If you want to enrol in our Early Learning Centre for 2025, the enrolment forms can be found here: St Francis of Assisi Primary School ELC - Calwell.
Pupil Free Day
Next Term, students in all Catholic Schools will not return to school until Tuesday, the 30th of April, due to a Pupil Free day on Monday, the 29th of April. Our staff will participate in a Staff Development Day on the designated Pupil Free Day.
Thank you once again for your unwavering dedication to our school community. Your partnership is invaluable, and it is what makes our school truly special.
Wishing you a wonderful holiday break.
Kind regards
Sean
