Representative and Gala Day Sports Costs
Thank you to our P&F for their generous support in covering the majority of the 2024 sporting costs. There have been significant increases in expenses for children to participate in Representative Sports and Gala Days.  Due to the increased cost, the P&F will support half payment in 2025 to reduce the cost for families. These fees are charged by the venues to cover their costs. 2025 sporting fees will be minimal and will be required when providing consent via Compass. 

Olympian Visit 
Our Year 3-6 students were very fortunate to have a visit from Olympian Emma Jeffcoat last week. Emma represented Australia at the Tokyo Olympics in the sport of Triathlon.
Emma shared with students her journey to becoming an Olympian, as well as the importance of hard work, resilience and gratitude. She outlined her training schedule, the importance of exercise as well as other key aspects of being a professional athlete such as commitment and discipline.
Emma inspired our students to be the best they can be, whether that be at school, at home, on the sporting field or with their friends.
We thank Emma for coming to visit us at St Francis. She was incredibly generous with her knowledge, time, and answered lots of thoughtful questions that our students had.
Emma gained a lot of fans from St Francis, and we are all now cheering her along her journey of qualifying for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics.
