The college held its annual prizegiving and presentation day on December 12, with many students recognised for their academic, sporting, creative and social talents.
"Excellence in learning and teaching has a very important place in daily life at St Francis College and it is always a thrill to watch our students grow over the course of the school year," Mrs King said.
"The opening of the Marcellin Learning Centre this year has allowed students and teachers to work collaboratively in contemporary learning spaces.
"Teachers work side-by-side, learning together.
"I thank you (the students) for a rewarding year ... remember you have the capacity to achieve anything you set your heart on.
"Appreciate the gifts you have and use them well."
