St Francis De Sales Regional College

St Francis De Sales Regional College is a Catholic Co-educational Day and Weekly Boarding School providing a comprehensive education across Years 7-12, for students from Leeton, Narrandera and surrounding rural areas in the Riverina.

We focus on students as individuals and aim to develop their own personal skills by providing a broad curriculum, enriched with many extra-curricular and sporting activities. We adopt a ‘restorative justice’ approach to our everyday life at the College, and encourage students to reflect upon Gospel values in their approach to their own learning.

Our outstanding reputation has evolved from our commitment to providing the best possible education to every student, underpinned by our core purpose—to educate the whole person.
