Congratulations to Siena Tonkin (Year 12 Kimberley) who was the proud recipient of ACC Letters for Athletics at yesterday's Whole School Assembly.
An ACC Letters Award is the highest individual accolade presented by Associated & Catholic Colleges of WA. The award recognises a student’s sustained excellence in sport, making them part of a very distinguished club of athletes.
ACC Letters is presented to any student that is selected in an ACC Swimming, Athletics or Cross Country All Stars Team for their age group for at least four years; or selected in an ACC Open All Stars team sport, such as Basketball, Netball or AFLW for at least three years.

On Friday 28 May, Advisory Council Chair, Mr Steve Cleaver, on behalf of the Executive Director of Catholic Education, Dr Debra Sayce, announced that Mr Leo Di Gregorio will be our College Principal from 2022.
Leo comes to our College community from his current position as Principal of Emmanuel Catholic College, Success, a position he has held for eight years. From 2004-2013, Leo was Deputy Principal at Sacred Heart College, during which time he was Acting Principal for one Term. Prior to that, from 1999-2003, Leo was Head of Senior School at Ursula Frayne Catholic College, Victoria Park.
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.
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.
At the end of last year, our much loved Principal, Mr Peter Bothe, proudly received Western Australia’s only National Excellence in Teaching Award (NEiTA) for leadership by principals following a challenging year in education.
Peter was nominated for the Founders’ Principal Award for Leadership by Head of Gifted and Talented and 2011 NEiTA Award recipient, Mrs Tanya Atherton, in recognition of his outstanding stewardship of student education and welfare and exemplary teacher and school community leadership in a year of pandemic.
