Dear Sacred Heart Community,
Family Week
Thank you so very much to all our family members that were able to join us for our activities and assembly - we know how hard it is to juggle other commitments
It is great to celebrate what we have and to say thank you to each other and our families and to come together as a community.
Thank you also for sending in a family photo - whenever I've been asked to do that for my own children, I've realised that we need to take more family photos!
Please be assured that we will use our photos for a few other special things throughout the year, and we will share the slideshow with the children again so they can enjoy seeing themselves and their friends families. I will share photos of our Sacred Heart Family Tree when it is finished next week.
FREE E-Safety Webinars
Children are using technology and social media more and more and the e-Safety Commission have a number of Free e-Safety parent and carer webinars this term. They are designed to inform parents and keep our children safe online and look really worthwhile. There are a number of times, topics and dates available.

Setting your child up for success online

School Closure Day: 16th of May
On Tuesday 16th of May, we had a great professional learning day with Emma-Rose Parsons, a psychologist and presenter at schools and community organisations who worked with us on neuro-affirming education practices. It was such a great day of learning for all the staff.
Take Care,
