Welcome to St Francis Xavier’s Catholic Primary School Arncliffe.
We are about providing a holistic education for every student to reach their full potential across all domains including, academic, social, emotional, spiritual, and physical. I’m incredibly proud to work alongside a team of dedicated and passionate professionals who ensure that every student is known and cared for.
At St Francis Xavier’s we believe that children learn best when they are known, understood, and supported to live life to the full (John 10:10).
We are a community that combines a rich history with highly engaging and contemporary approaches to education. Our vision is “We learn, engage and celebrate – nurturing confident and creative global learners” and we consistently strive to achieve this through our commitment to our Catholic faith and to ensuring that all of our students are nurtured to achieve their potential through a culture of high expectation and support.
Building positive relationships and working in partnership with parents and our parish is at the very heart of our thriving Catholic community. We look forward to growing our school community with the development of new and innovative learning spaces, this year and in many to come.
We encourage you to explore our website and visit our social media pages to gain a snapshot of the strength of our school as a dynamic, innovative, and inclusive learning community.
