Starting School

Kia ora and welcome to Saint Francis de Sales School.

We are delighted to welcome you and your whānau into our school community as you begin this exciting learning journey with us. We value the partnership between home and school and look forward to working alongside you to support your child’s growth and success.

At Saint Francis de Sales, we celebrate each child as a unique individual. Our goal is to nurture their strengths, inspire curiosity, encourage creativity, and help them develop the confidence and skills they need to reach their full potential.

We understand that every child learns differently. Learning is a journey, not a race, and children develop at their own pace. We are committed to providing a supportive and inclusive environment where every learner can thrive.

The primary school years are filled with discovery, growth, and memorable experiences. Research consistently shows that when parents and whānau are actively involved in their child’s learning, children achieve greater success and develop a lifelong love of learning.

We invite you to explore the information available on our website, learn more about our school, and become involved in the many opportunities, events, and activities that make Saint Francis de Sales such a special community.
