Welcome to Sacred Heart Primary School—a vibrant, inclusive Catholic learning community where every child is known, valued, and inspired to thrive.

​

At Sacred Heart, we are proud of our long-standing tradition of excellence, grounded in the Mercy values of compassion, service, and respect. Our mission is to provide a high-quality, inclusive education where faith, wellbeing and academic growth go hand in hand.

​

Our Catholic identity is central to who we are and how we teach. In today’s world, we bring faith to life through respectful dialogue, diversity, and action for the common good. Whether through recontextualised Religious Education, inclusive prayer, or Catholic Social Teaching in action, students are invited to engage with faith in meaningful, relevant ways.

We are also a school that deeply values evidence-informed practice. In recent years, Sacred Heart has embraced the Science of Learning, aligning our teaching with what research tells us about how students learn best. This includes our Structured Literacy approach and a strong focus on early intervention—strategies that are helping every learner build strong foundations and achieve outstanding growth.

​

Our staff are dedicated, skilled professionals who work together to continually improve. Through purposeful collaboration, data-informed planning, and shared commitment to our students, we are proud to be recognised as a leader in Catholic education—particularly through our work with the FLARE Project.

​

Just as important is our unwavering commitment to student wellbeing. Sacred Heart is a place where children feel safe, connected, and supported. Through whole-school wellbeing approaches, trauma-informed practices, social-emotional learning, and even the companionship of our wellbeing dog Coco, we create an environment where children flourish.

Looking ahead, our priorities are shaped by our commitment to continuous improvement and to ensuring that every child experiences "fullness of life"—in learning and beyond.

​

We are focused on:

• Deepening Catholic identity through dialogue, prayer, reflection and service

• Embedding inclusive, whole-school approaches to student wellbeing and belonging

• Strengthening student engagement through curiosity, agency, and the Science of Learning

• Working in genuine partnership with families to support each child’s growth

 

At Sacred Heart, we believe that education is a shared journey. We value the trust parents place in us, and we are committed to working side-by-side to support your child academically, socially, and spiritually.

 

Thank you for taking the time to explore our school. We look forward to welcoming you into the Sacred Heart community.
