Principal's News 

All students attending St Louis de Montfort's Aspendale have the right to feel safe. 

The care, safety and well-being of children and young people

It is a fundamental responsibility of all within our school.

Good afternoon, families,

 

I hope you’ve all had a wonderful week enjoying what looks to be the final stretch of this beautiful, warm weather before autumn truly sets in.

 

It has been a busy and vibrant week at school. On Tuesday, we celebrated St Louis’ Feast Day. A massive thank you to the many parents who volunteered their time to marshal the route, cook sausages, and support the event in so many ways. Special thanks also go to Mr Andrew for his incredible work in coordinating the day’s activities.

 

A huge congratulations to Fatima House for their fantastic effort in winning the Cross-country House shield!
