Soccer Gala Day
Congratulations to all of our 89 students who participated in the 'mini' Soccer Gala Day last Thursday at King George V Oval, Port Kembla. This was a joint event with St Patrick's, Port Kembla.
The weather turned out to be perfect for soccer, and the students had a fun and active day. It was great to see a large number of parents and families enjoying the day with their children.
A huge thank you to the staff of St Francis and St Patrick's for making this day happen.




Transport for school events
You may have noticed that most sporting events we will ask that you provide transport for your child. The cost and difficulty of organising buses or other options are the main factors in this decision.
We thank all of our families who have supported their children by making arrangements for their transport so far this year.
Diocesan Trial Nominations - For students in Years 5 and 6 in 2023
Nominations are now open for these trials. Students are required to be experienced players and extremely talented at their chosen sport. These trials are not gala days or school-based carnivals. They have not been designed for students “to come and try or for the experience”, they are for students who are elite at their sport and expect to make it to the next level.
Base criteria need to be met to attend these trials. Below is the background information you should specify in your nomination:
- years played
- representative experience and teams (preferred not essential)
- any outstanding achievements in the sport
All student nominations are sent to trial conveners for approval. Students who have nominated for a sport will then be informed if they have been successful or unsuccessful to attend the Wollongong trials. Successful students will receive a letter from the school detailing the trial, times, gear requirements etc.
Please complete a separate form for any additional sports you wish to nominate for.
