Parents' Association

Welcome back and a warm welcome to all the new families who have joined our school community this year. We look forward to meeting you all at our upcoming Welcome Picnic and Prep and New Families Welcome. The PA is looking forward to another wonderful year of community and friendraising events this year. 

With a new PA Executive team this year we thought we would share our goals for the year ahead. We will be working alongside our amazing Parent Reps and school community to achieve these goals this year:

Our goals for PA this year are to:

• Bring our community together through inclusive events
• Share and celebrate our talents and ideas
• Support families and local businesses where possible
• Invite the wider community to see how wonderful our school is and help boost enrolments
• Give back to those less fortunate through our fundraising
• Fundraise with a purpose of providing resources and equipment all students will benefit from
• Communicate honestly and effectively with Parent Reps and wider school community with events, fundraising projects etc 

We would really love to support our school and local businesses as much as we can this year. If your business or a community business you know, would love to work with us this year in promoting, supporting or donating to our school please fill out the form here: Connecting with Our Community 

We also encourage any ideas or feedback regarding events, fundraising and bringing our school community together. Please reach out to your child's parent rep to share your ideas with us or email us at sjjlombardi@gmail.com. Everyone is welcome to attend our PA meetings throughout the year to share your voice and ideas too. 

Thanks for your support in the year ahead!

Sacred Heart Meals Service

What is the meals service?

The Sacred Heart Meals Service is available to all Sacred Heart families that require some practical help in the form of meals at a time of need. This may be due to a very happy occasion such as a new birth in the family, or in more difficult circumstances such as a death or illness in a family. 

How does it work?

The Meals Service Coordinators can be contacted by a teacher, class rep, member of the Parents Association, a friend within the school or the family members themselves. The coordinators would then contact the family to chat about what would be helpful (e.g. how often, favourite meals, dietary requirements etc) and then coordinate the service, requesting assistance from the relevant year level.

It’s important to note that we are very careful in being discreet at all times and maintaining confidentiality, ensuring the family are happy with what information (if any) is passed on to those we are asking to assist. 

We can be contacted via the following methods:
