The transformation of heads and hearts lies at the heart of a Sacré Cœur education. Our holistic approach to educating young women unites academic endeavour with a deep commitment to each child; this is the truest expression of the Sacré Cœur way.

Laughter, inclusivity, friendship and diversity of opportunity are evidenced in a Sacré Cœur education. Our students feel a palpable sense of belonging and connection to their lived experience and benefit from of a rich diversity of faiths within our community.

The girls are guided to be innovative and responsive to their community. Through immersion experiences, a shared commitment to social justice and an education that guides them to think broadly about issues impacting the world, we nurture our students to be agents of change. They are encouraged to raise their voices and to look outwardly, applying their wisdom and skill.

Our students learn from highly qualified and passionate teachers, many of whom are curriculum experts and VCE assessors. Our teachers embrace each child as an individual, meeting their learning and wellbeing needs; as a result, our young women flourish and achieve exceptional results.

We are privileged to belong to an international Sacred Heart family of over 150 schools across 41 countries.

JUNIOR SCHOOL

Children are naturally enthusiastic and curious. The learning experiences we deliver build upon their inquisitiveness in a stimulating and caring environment. Our new fee schedule makes it more accessible than ever before.

YEAR 9 PROGRAM

Called Notre Monde, the program focuses on fostering growth in resilience, communication, teamwork, creativity, leadership and problem solving. Mindfulness, community service and physical challenge also form an integral part.

CREATIVITY

Creativity is a cornerstone of a Sacré Cœur education. From the creative and performing arts to design thinking in STEM, we nurture creative thinking so that our young women can see and solve the challenges of today and the future.

NEW FACILITIES

From mid-2021, we will enjoy exciting new learning spaces in our four-storey science, technology, arts and resource centre. Students will learn in inspiring and collaborative spaces, including a rooftop garden and specially designed junior playgrounds.
