Parents and community members play a vital role in their children's education, and a strong partnership between families and schools enriches the learning experience.
At St Francis College, we strive to keep parents and caregivers informed through various channels:
St Francis College Newsletter
Our newsletter is sent out every two weeks via SWAY. You'll receive an email on Fridays with a link to stay updated on all that's happening at the College.
BCE Parent Portal
Upon enrolment, you will gain access to the BCE Parent Portal, along with guidelines to help you navigate it effectively.
BCE Connect Mobile App
This convenient app provides secure access to school and student information, helping you stay engaged. It integrates with our website, Parent Portal, social media, and Google Maps.
SMS Notifications
We send SMS alerts when your child is absent or late without prior notification. This ensures all students are accounted for. Messages go to the primary contact parent, but we can send them to both if needed.
Social Media
Follow us on our St Francis College Facebook Page to see the amazing things happening at our school. We also have various groups you can join, including Friends of St Francis, SFC Career Pathways, SFC Uniform Buy/Swap/Sell, St Francis Community Hub and SFC Alumni.
Additionally, connect with us on Instagram and LinkedIn for more updates and insights.
Media Consent
When using students' images on our website and social media, we check their Media Consent status, which you provide upon enrolment. You can choose from two consent options:
- Public (Broad Consent)
- None (No Consent)
We encourage all parents and legal guardians to complete the Media Consent Form during enrolment by selecting one of these options.
