St Francis Catholic School’s Annual Awards Day

St Francis Catholic School’s annual Awards Day was held on Wednesday November 30. It was a chance for the school community to reflect upon the incredible journey that they shared throughout 2023 as well as a time to recognise and honour the outstanding achievements of students throughout the year. From academic achievements to artistic endeavours, athletic triumphs to community service initiatives, St Francis Catholic School students consistently demonstrated their dedication, passion and resilience throughout the year.

At St Francis Catholic School, students are continually encouraged to strive and aim for excellence and on Awards Day we were reminded that there is no one measure for excellence. Aiming for excellence is about the personal goals, growth, resilience and character development that occurs throughout the year and in 2023, St Francis Catholic School students strived to put their best foot forward and they certainly aimed for excellence.
