We are rebuilding the church today.

As educators working in schools who carry the Franciscan tradition we are needed more than ever at this time, for our young people need models of people simply living the Gospel life. 

This is what schools who carry the Franciscan tradition do – we simply live the Gospel!

FSA celebrates all things Franciscan and the ‘goodness’ that empowers and enriches our schools. Resources, formation experiences and connections are what we offer. Our schools are our life blood and we are serving them with life!

Celebrate Centenaries during 2023-2026.
