General Information

Lunchbox Items

A friendly reminder that children are not permitted to bring lollies, chocolates, soft drinks, or energy drinks to school. 

We appreciate your continued support in encouraging nutritious options and helping our students stay focused and energised for learning throughout the day.

Also, please be reminded that St Francis Xavier's School is an allergy aware school. 

This means that we aim to create a safe environment for our students with allergies and request that our families are mindful of the foods being packed in their child's lunchbox. 

Your assistance is greatly appreciated.

IMPORTANT REMINDER
