What are Year Representatives?
The system of Year Representatives works particularly well at our school. Any Sacred Heart parent can volunteer to be a Year Rep for their child's year. The role of a Year Rep is evolving to focus more on ‘pastoral care’ ie. connecting parents, buddying new families, encouraging parents’ to support in classroom and school activities, and coordinating social events that bring families together. Year representatives liaise with teachers and encourage all parents in the year group to become involved in planning and running events throughout the year.

Uniform Policy
All the rules and guidelines regarding the SHM Uniform Presentation Policy
UNIFORM POLICY
Sacred Heart Catholic Primary School is a Catholic school in the Marist tradition. We are proud of our school and would like all students in our community to present themselves in a way that reflects the values and standards of the school.
All students who attend SHM Catholic Primary School must wear the approved school uniform. The wearing of our school uniform is a consequence of the acceptance of enrolment at SHM Catholic Primary School. Our school’s uniform policy has been created under the Workplace Health and Safety Guidelines and the Anti-Discrimination Act.
Compulsory enforcement of our uniform policy enables consistency in dress standards throughout the school and is a way of identifying students who are part of the Sacred Heart community. If for any reason your child is unable to wear a particular item of our school uniform, they should provide a note from their parent/guardian advising the school of the situation and take appropriate steps to correct the uniform as soon as possible.
This Uniform Policy also addresses accessories which are acceptable. Again, approval of such accessories takes into account the safety, both physical and environmental, of each child. Any accessory deemed inappropriate by the Sacred Heart Leadership Team will require immediate removal or alteration.
Should such instances occur the final decision will rest with the School Principal.
