St. Francis Catholic School sits proudly alongside our Parish on Mackay Street in the center of Thames.

 
Inspired by St Francis' love of God and Creation, we provide a nurturing learning environment for each child. Children are challenged to develop and make the most of their unique gifts and talents. At St Francis, we learn how to love and love to learn.  
We are a small, multi cultural and family focused school serving the needs of our local community working in partnership with our Parish to educate the whole child, Spirit, mind body and faith. We aim to go above and beyond for each and every one of our children.

If you want to know more about our school, please phone, send and email or even better, pop in and see us.

 

God bless
Oliver Fahey
Principal
