Principal Update

St Francis, Nathalia is a child safe school.  

We promote the safety, wellbeing and inclusion of all children.

Dear Families,

 

Welcome back to Term 2!   

 

Easter, the most significant event in the Catholic calendar, signifies the fulfilment of Old Testament prophecies and the revelation of God's plan for humanity's salvation. As we commemorate Jesus's Resurrection, Easter also symbolises the triumph over death and the promise of salvation.  The holiday pause provided us with a chance to reflect on the term, reconnect with loved ones, and celebrate Easter's profound significance.

 

I trust that everyone had a restful break and is prepared for the exciting adventures awaiting us in Team 2. We kicked off the term with the ANZAC day public holiday this Thursday and we have a Numeracy Professional Development (pupil-free) day on Friday of Week 3 (3 May, 2024).

 

Wishing you all a fantastic week ahead!

Matt
