National Reconciliation Week - Wednesday 27th May to Wednesday 3rd June 2026
As we approach National Reconciliation Week, our school community comes together to acknowledge the past, celebrate the world’s oldest living cultures, and commit to building a future grounded in respect and unity.
This year’s theme, All In, reminds us that reconciliation is a shared responsibility — every student, teacher, family, and community member has a role to play.
Throughout the week, students will explore First Nations histories and cultures, engage in meaningful conversations about reconciliation, and participate in activities that foster understanding and connection. Together, we commit to being all in for reconciliation, now and always.
All students are invited to dress in RED, YELLOW & BLACK to show their commitment to reconciliation on
Wednesday 3rd June.
We encourage families to continue these important conversations at home, helping to build a future strengthened by respect, understanding, and unity.

National Simultaneous Storytime
Yesterday, Wednesday 27 May at 12:00pm, children across Australia joined together for National Simultaneous Storytime, a beloved annual event that celebrates the joy of reading. This year’s book, Luna Roo: The Kangaroo Baller by Adam Jackson and Adrian Lloyd, illustrated by Jake A. Minton, invites children into a playful world of courage, teamwork, and resilience.
National Simultaneous Storytime is an annual event that aims to promote the value of reading and literacy in libraries, classrooms, and communities around the country.
The book was read/watched in our St Francis classrooms along with many others around Australia.
The link is attached if you would like to watch it with your children.
