Administration 

Quote for the fortnight:

Fee statements will be sent out via email early next week.

Please check nForma regularly for forms or notices relating to your child/ren. 

Also, please ensure that all details are correct for your child, and please enter any medical details, emergency contacts and anything else we may need to be aware of.

All applications for Prep 2027 need to be submitted electronically as we have moved to a new system. This can be accessed via our website.  Scroll down the page and you can start the application and submit at your own pace (it can be saved and returned to as needed). All applications need to include the following:

• Copy of Birth Certificate
• Copy of Immunisation Certificate
• Copy of Baptism Certificate (if applicable)

• $50 application fee (can be paid at the office)

   

School Information Package 2026

Important school information is contained in the School Information Package. It is regularly updated throughout the year.

nForma Portal  - app version available too!

At Sacred Heart, we use nForma for all school communication, including:

• Student reports at mid-year and end-of-year
• Absence advice
• Notices and permission forms
• Bulk emails and SMS
• First aid advice

• Parent-teacher interview bookings

   

This platform ensures streamlined and effective communication across our school community.  Please ensure you check for the latest version (currently 5.1.0); the app is constantly evolving to provide better communication for parents.

***We no longer use Operoo or Audiri, so please remove these, unless used for other schools or sporting organisations.***

CDFpay 

All purchases for uniform, P&F events and also Tuck Shop orders are placed through the CDFpay app. Please ensure you have downloaded it.  Any payments for the P&F must not be paid to the school account.  All payments should be submitted via the app.

ATTENDANCE:

Rolls are marked from 8:55-9am.  If your child arrives after 9am please sign them in at the office.  Please enter absences directly in the nForma Parent Portal app.  

Alternatively, you can email classroom teachers and cc the office (admin@shs.catholic.edu.au) to advise any absence or late arrival.  

Our attendance system will send an automated SMS to parents if we haven't received explanation by 9:30am (SMS system rolls out according to roll confirmation time).  

DROPPING ITEMS AT THE OFFICE:

If you have something to drop in at the office for your child, please ensure it is labelled clearly with their name and class.  It will be passed on at the next break time.  We do not interrupt class time. Please keep these drop offs to a minimum.

MESSAGES TO CHILDREN - IE: CHANGE IN PICK UP DETAILS ETC

Please ensure you ring through any messages to be passed on to your child.  Email cannot be relied upon as we may not see it in time, or staff may be absent.  The best way to ensure a message will be passed on is to PHONE the office.  Children are not to contact parents directly using electronic devices at any time.  

P&F PAYMENTS:

Payments for the P&F (i.e. for functions or uniform shop) must be kept separate from school payments. The P&F have a separate bank account—please do not use the school bank account for their payments.  Most P&F functions/events can be paid for on CDFpay, same as the uniform shop.

· Remember, if unsure of anything at all in relation to administration matters at school, don't hesitate to ring the office and we will be more than happy to assist you. 

· The office is open between 8:30am and 3:45pm Monday –Friday.

BEFORE AND AFTERCARE 2026

We are thrilled to be able to offer Before Care on Wednesdays and Thursdays in 2026. 

Aftercare will run Mon-Thurs.  No Friday service due to lack of interest.  This service can only operate if there is enough demand. 

Thanks for your understanding with all admin matters, if you have any queries, don't hesitate to contact me admin@shsandringham.catholic.edu.au
