Parent Volunteers
At Sacred Heart we value the contribution of vulunteers and we invite our school families to be part of our learning community.
Parents are invited to participate in classroom literacy, numeracy and integrated programs, working bees, fund raising, excursions and camping programs.
We value the strong link between home and school and encourage this partnership with our school community.
There are many ways for you to participate in school life and we do urge you to react to notices sent home and to join in and make it our school not the school. We hope you will become as proud of our school as we are.

Do I need a WWCC to enter Sacred Heart School grounds?
No, although we strongly encourage all parents and caregivers to apply for a Working with Children Check and register it with the school to assist us in continually promoting a child safe environment. It is everyone’s responsibility to make sure our students are safe and feel safe at all times.
