About our school
Walk in Light
At St Francis, we foster a nurturing environment where every child feels a genuine sense of belonging. We know that when students feel connected and valued, they thrive — embracing every opportunity for growth across learning, sport, the arts, culture and service.
Located in the rural township of Hughenden, St Francis Catholic Primary School is a small, close-knit community where relationships matter and each child is truly known.
Inspired by the example of St Francis of Assisi and the teachings of Jesus, we strive to be a community grounded in faith, self-discipline, forgiveness and peace. We encourage a spirit of service — not only within our school, but throughout the wider community.
Join our welcoming community and discover the difference St Francis can make in your child’s life.

St Francis Catholic School, Hughenden has a proud history of providing high-quality education in an environment of the Catholic tradition.
We believe a balanced education is important, and our students enjoy a wide range of learning, sporting, musical and social justice opportunities.

Our teachers here at St Francis Catholic School embrace the very latest in technology and best practice to educate your child according to our multi-age philosophy, while also considering each child’s abilities and needs.
I believe the key to our students’ successes is a very strong sense of belonging, which is strengthened by the consistent support and encouragement that exists within our school community.
