What if affordability is an issue?
Our aim is to provide families with access to affordable education of the highest quality. A family’s financial circumstances are not a barrier to enrolment at St Francis of Assisi College. We are committed to working with parents/guardians in a just, respectful, compassionate, transparent and considered manner in the processes for setting and collecting fees.
Families experiencing hardship are encouraged to meet with Anthony Pickering, College Finance Manager. Details of a family’s financial circumstances in determining fee remission arrangements will be handled respectfully and with appropriate confidentiality in accordance with the school’s Privacy Policy.
Please note: Class 7A will have practical PE Wednesday afternoon and need to wear their sports uniform for the day.
Delay on Sports Shorts and Bucket Hats
We have been informed the supply of the College sports shorts and bucket hat has been delayed, with both expected to arrive during term 1. Our uniform provider has been outstanding at ensuring timely supply of our new College uniform range, and these minor delays are our of the control of the supplier. We have developed interim solutions for students:
Sports Shorts
Students can wear plain navy blue sports shorts, this can include sport shorts from their previous school if navy blue. Yates Menswear also have a plain blue basketball short for $15 if required.
Bucket Hat
Yates Menswear have a plain blue bucket hat available for under $10 that can be used as an alternate until the College hat is in stock.
Link SA are proud of their two brand new coaches (pictured above) that will be transporting our students to the College.
Families that have registered and/or contacted us regarding the bus are currently being set up in our Transport System and will be allocated a unique Username and Password for the TransportMe Passenger App via email.
An email to registered families will be sent out during February and Smart Cards will be sent in the post for swiping on and off the Bus. A manual system is in place while we are setting up the TransportMe system.
Transport fees will be invoiced in Term 1 and can be paid weekly, fortnightly, monthly or termly via a direct debit payment arrangement. This can be incorporated into your Tuition Fees payment at your request.
