"The Real Game"
Taking on the career challenge at Sacred Heart College, Year 10 students spent a day exploring career options in "The Real Game". Dressed for the occasion they looked at their dreams, questioned the options they had for their future, and with a dusting of realism gained knowledge to help them with their subject choices and career path.
Feast Day Poetry Competition
This year the Library ran a poetry competition for Years 9 and 10 inviting the girls to write a poem with the theme "What Feast Day means to me". The competition was open untill the end of the term which gave the Year 9 students plenty of time to reflect on their first Feast Day at Sacred Heart.
The English Department had the hard job of sorting the 2 winners and 2 runners up from each year group but Aimee and Alyanna wrote the winning Year 9 poems, and Josephine and Danielle were judged the winners in Year 10. The poems all shared a similar theme of a shared school community, friendship, fun, food, excitement over concert items, and will be stored in the school archives.
Feast Day 2011
Form Classes, Deans, Senior Management and Support Staff all contributed their own "hearts" with special meanings to adorn the cross at this years Feast Day. Archbishop John Dew presided over the Mass at the Town Hall which was marked by a poignant acknowlegment to Mrs Ruth Clitheroe, Assistant Principal, who will be retiring at the end of the year after 31 years of service. A shared lunch followed for all form classes and the day was capped off with an afternoon concert, ending another successful Feast Day.
