Our movie team winning their trophies
On Monday 30 March the St Francis of Assisi Primary 2014 movie team attended the Kidzflicks 2015 Movie awards night at Event Cinemas in Bondi. We were nominated for six out of the fourteen awards.
KidzFlicks, the Sydney International Festival of Films by Children, is a week long celebration of films made by children 12 years of age and younger. KidzFlicks offers young Australian filmmakers the opportunity to screen their work for a wider audience. KidzFlicks also brings films by children from over 30 other countries onto Australian screens, enabling Australian children to see their own filmmkaing in a truly international context.
We are very delighted to announce that we won awards for ‘Best Directing’ and ‘Best Film’ with the production Hare Pylls v Wild, an entertaining and amusing 'wildlife' documentary with tips for surviving school.
It was great to have all the students and ex-students attend the ceremony. Thank you to their families for their support as well.
Congratulations to all the students involved on this remarkable achievement.
Our movie team:
Iris Sinsay, Joshua Emery, Alexander Blazeski-Lindo, Abby Wasylinka, Miguel Tuazon, Vinaal Lal, Clara Naseim, Jadine Roman, Marc Caramoan, Andre Atienza, Camille Bautista.

Next Tuesday at 7pm, 11 August, The Good Shepherd Parish will be hosting the First-Class Relic of St Clare of Assisi, which will be available for all to venerate as we celebrate the feast of this beloved Saint. Before Mass, there will be a talk presented by Camille Bautista, a 2020 graduate of St Clare's High School who also previously served the school as a teacher's aide. She will be sharing a reflection on the life and witness of St Clare. The evening is being hosted by Capuchin Young Adults Plumpton, who are guided by the Capuchin Friars (like Fr John) and are made up of St Clare’s HS and St Francis of Assisi Primary Shool alumni. It is a wonderful opportunity during this Jubilee Year of St Francis and the 800th anniversary of his passing to honour the deep friendship and shared spirituality of St Francis and St Clare.
