St Francis Xavier's Regional Catholic School

At St Francis Xavier’s Catholic School, our vision is to establish a space of cultural safety for First Nations students and their families, where reconciliation and cultural respect are meaningfully embedded into the daily actions of those in our community. Our vision for reconciliation includes ongoing attention to, and enhancement of, First Nations cultures and perspectives in curriculum content, while fostering a community of learners that respect and celebrate over 60,000 years of cultures and continuing connections to Country. We see our Reconciliation Action Plan as a framework for ongoing sustainable change, which includes the continued development and support of actions and projects that will improve the outcomes for First Nations students and all students at the school. St Francis Xavier's Catholic School is located on Kaurna Yarta (Kaurna Country) and commits to building meaningful relationships with Elders in the community to facilitate opportunities to learn about Kaurna Miyurna (Kaurna People), Kaurna Warra (Kaurna Language), Kaurna ways of knowing, being, and doing, and more broadly, about all First Nations peoples, their perspectives, histories, and cultures.  Our Reconciliation Action Plan is aligned to, and supports, the charism and values of St Francis Xavier's Catholic school, which include: respect, compassion, and service.
