CELEBRATING 200 YEARS OF CATHOLIC EDUCATION IN AUSTRALIA

Sacred Heart’s Year 11 Contemporary Rock Band was chosen to perform at the 200 years of Catholic Education celebration on Sunday 21 February at the Perth Convention Centre. This event was also a celebration for Catholic Education Western Australia, as we celebrate 50 Years Together.

The Year 11s performed the 200 years commemorative song “Faith In The Future” (words and music by Fr Rob Galea and Luke Batterbury) for all principals of Western Australian Catholic Schools. Our students were outstanding and were very well received by all principals. The Year 11s then continued to entertain the celebrating party with other songs.

THE SACRED HEART COLLEGE HISTORY BOOK, HEARTSPACE, IS NOW AVAILABLE FOR PURCHASE AND COLLECTION

HeartSpace, the story of Sacred Heart College from 1967 - 2019, focuses on the 'Spirit' and 'Heart' of our Sacred Heart College history. The story begins with an introduction to Euphrasie Barbier and her formation of the Sisters of Our Lady of the Missions (RNDM Sisters) halfway across the world, before exploring the reasoning behind Sacred Heart Girls' School's gradual move from Highgate in Perth's CBD to Sorrento in the far north extremity of Perth, our transition from an Order owned school to being governed by Catholic Education WA, the many 'actors' along the way and our current reputation as one of Perth's leading Catholic Colleges.
