The Junior Years at St Francis College serve children aged 8-12, encompassing Years 3 to 6.
With gentle courtesy and profound simplicity, Francis embraced every living thing as a reflection of his Creator.
In alignment with the values of St Francis, the Junior Years promote the following principles:
- Identifying and accommodating the emotional, social, cultural, spiritual, behavioural, and educational needs of each child.
- Recognising that children enter our school at different stages of development.
- Encouraging increased levels of responsibility and independence within each child.
- Providing a safe, welcoming, and inspiring environment that challenges students to reach their full potential.
- Enhancing the use and understanding of technology by incorporating interactive whiteboards and class notebooks into diverse learning tasks.
- Instilling and upholding the Franciscan values of stewardship, harmony, peace, and community.
