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.
Dear Families,
Yesterday, we celebrated World Teachers' Day with a wonderful morning tea kindly provided by our Year 5 families. A special thank you to Anne (from Year 2) for creating such a beautiful display in the staff room! On behalf of all our educators, thank you to every parent and carer who made our team feel so valued and appreciated. I feel truly blessed to work alongside such a dedicated, inspiring staff community.
Year 4s are off to camp this week and we are all so excited to be going to Mill Valley
