A Message From Grade 5/6
On the morning of Thursday 15th of February we were lucky to have six St Kilda players come to our school and explain to us how they kept fit and energetic by having a good diet.
They talked to us about how they made it to the AFL and how they played different sports when they were younger.
They also told us about what inspired them to be dedicated footballers today.
I don’t play AFL but it was cool meeting AFL players that had a career in playing professional Aussie Rules.

$125 for primary school students

Long Absences & Late Arrivals
Just a friendly reminder to please advise the school of student absences at your earliest convenience, either via email or the absence line. When leaving a message on the absence line, please include your name, the student's name, and classroom, along with the reason for the absence.
If your student arrives at school after the music has stopped playing, they will need to sign in at the office. We are happy to assist you and your children at the office with this.
This prevents us from sending you a clarification text. If you have a senior student please remind them they must come via the office to let us know they have arrived at school.
Extended absences for example holidays during term time need to be communicated with our principal, Mrs Carrie Rodda. Please email her directly: principal@safranksth.catholic.edu.au
