Awards at St Francis Catholic College
As the College is growing and changing we are constantly reviewing our processes, procedures and systems to ensure we are catering for the needs of all students.
One system which we review annually is our Award System, which differs from our Reward system which focuses on our Bronze, Silver, Gold and Medallion levels.
In the past the College has given Awards based on mid year reports at the end of Semester One and then conducted an End of Year Award Ceremony based on end of year reports.
After consultation with staff, students and feedback provided from parents in 2019 our Awards will be distributed as follows:
End of Semester One |
Junior/Middle/Senior Years Academic Excellence |
Term 2: Week 10 Assemblies |
End of Semester Two |
Junior/Middle/Senior Years Academic Excellence |
Term 4: Week 10 Assemblies |
End of Year Awards |
Junior/Middle/Senior Years Open Hearts Award |
Term 4: |
For our existing parents one notable difference will be that 100% Attendance Awards are no longer going to be distributed. The Leadership Team has discussed this award and the many issues and concerns it has raised over the last two years. Attending school is compulsory and therefore awards for attendance will no longer be part of the College Award system.
We are excited to introduce another layer of our Award System now giving students three opportunities to achieve major awards throughout the year.
