St Francis of Assisi Primary was fortunate to trial a new virtual reality program where students get to experience what life is like in Timor Leste.
The story was filmed by an ABC film crew and it aired on their breakfast program.

Last week some Stage Two students participated in the Soccer Gala Day in Penrith! Although the day started with a rain shower, it ended with blue skies that matched our high spirits! All students participated with determination, worked as a team and had fun while doing it.

🎉 Congratulations to our Stage 3 Girls Soccer Team! ⚽️💪 Our Stage 3 girls put in an incredible performance at the recent Gala Day, going undefeated throughout the tournament! Their teamwork, determination, and sportsmanship were on full display as they battled through a highly competitive group. The final result came down to the wire - a tense wait for the outcome of another match to determine the group winner. In a thrilling twist, our girls claimed 1st place on goal difference—a well-deserved victory! We are so proud of their effort, resilience, and the way they represented our school. Well done, girls! 🥇👏 Also a big thank you to all the parents for their support on the day.
