SHS School App: Communications

SHS School App

The Sacred Heart School App is the school’s official communication platform for current parents, guardians and students. It provides one convenient place to receive school information, submit attendance notes and forms, make payments and access VSware.

Communications

School communications for parents and guardians are published through the App. These include:

  • School news and important notifications

  • Personal notifications

  • Noticeboards and photo galleries

  • The school calendar

  • Notes and forms for parents and guardians

Attendance Notes

Parents and guardians should use the App to submit attendance notes relating to:

  • Student absences

  • Late arrivals

  • Permission to leave school early

Attendance notes should be submitted before 8.30 a.m. whenever possible. This allows school staff sufficient time to process them. Forms submitted after 8.30 a.m. may not be processed immediately.

Forms

Forms and documents requiring parental approval or a signature can be completed and submitted through the App.

VSware

Parents and guardians can access their VSware account directly through the Home Menu on the App.

Payments

When a school payment is due, parents and guardians will receive a notification through the App. Simply tap the notification, add the relevant item to your cart and complete the payment securely.

Resources

The App’s information and resources sections provide convenient access to frequently used school information and documents.

Registration and Mobile Numbers

To register for the App, you must use the mobile number recorded for you by the school.

Each parent or guardian who requires access must have their current mobile number registered with the school. If your number has changed or you experience difficulty registering, please contact the school office.
