My name is Jamie Wahab, and I have the privilege of being the Principal of this exceptional school. At Sacred Heart, we are committed to providing each child with the opportunities and experiences they need to reach their full potential in a supportive and caring environment.
Our approach is deeply grounded in the science of learning. We believe that understanding how the brain learns best is essential for ensuring every child thrives. Through research-based strategies, including explicit and direct instruction, we establish a solid foundation in literacy and numeracy. These core skills, supported by a knowledge-rich curriculum, serve as the bedrock for academic success, enabling students to engage meaningfully with the world around them.
Our dedicated educators are central to the success of our school community. With a strong commitment to fostering a love for learning, they create dynamic and stimulating learning experiences that engage students and spark their desire to flourish. Through their passion and expertise, our students develop the academic, social, and emotional skills needed to face future challenges with confidence and determination.
At Sacred Heart, we aim to inspire hearts and minds to know Christ and cultivate a love of learning. We are dedicated to providing a well-rounded education that nurtures the growth of each individual. In addition to a strong focus on academics, we offer numerous opportunities for students to explore their interests and talents – from sports, where our students excel in local, diocesan, and state championships, to the creative and performing arts, as well as a wide range of extracurricular activities. These experiences allow students to discover their passions, develop their talents, and build teamwork and leadership skills.
We are proud of the strong, close-knit community that exists between our parish, school, parents, and the wider local community. This collaboration creates a nurturing environment where students feel supported and valued. Together, we work to ensure that every child thrives academically, socially, and spiritually, fostering a sense of belonging and unity.
We also recognise the importance of fostering positive habits and behaviours. Our behaviour curriculum is woven into every aspect of school life, helping students develop the routines and values necessary for personal and academic growth. Grounded in our Catholic faith, we guide our students to embrace values that inspire them to become responsible, ethical leaders for the future.
At Sacred Heart, we are committed to providing an authentic Catholic education with care and compassion. We empower students to use their talents to be the very best they can be, preparing them not only for high school but for a lifetime of growth, leadership, and service.
Thank you for considering Sacred Heart as a potential school for your child. I look forward to the opportunity to meet you and discuss how we can support your child’s growth and development in our community.
