How to be involved

Share Your Skills, Share Your Passion

At Sacred Heart, we believe our students learn best when they connect with people in our community who are willing to share their time, talents and experiences.
 
We welcome volunteers who may enjoy working alongside our students in areas such as craft, sewing, painting, gardening, cooking, woodworking, music, technology or any hobby, trade or area of expertise you would love to share.
 
Volunteering with students is incredibly rewarding. The time, encouragement and knowledge you provide can spark confidence, creativity and curiosity in children, while helping them discover new interests and skills. Our volunteers are highly valued members of our school community, and the relationships formed often become a special and meaningful part of school life.
 
Whether you can help regularly or occasionally, there are many opportunities to become involved in our vibrant school community.
 
We warmly welcome parents, grandparents, carers and community members to join us in helping every child grow and thrive.
