The top teams from each of the six Global Rounds are then invited to compete at the Tournament of Champions. This year, 50 countries were represented.

SACRED HEART SPORTING SUCCESS

For the ninth consecutive year our students have won all three Associated and Catholics Colleges (ACC) 'A' Division carnivals - Athlectics, Cross Country and Swimming. The number of consecutive wins across ACC carnivals is now 29. 

Whilst the swimming team fought hard for a close win, the Cross Country team won by 80 points and the athletics team by 133 points.

We had 65 teams compete in the Northern and Associated Schools (NAS) afterschool competition and won the Overall Trophy for the seventh year in a row.

VIETNAM MISSION 2019

Each year our Year 11 students raise funds to help students in need in Vietnam. This year our students visted four convents, Thu Duc, Cu Chi, Suio Da and Xuan Loc where they stayed with our Founding Order, the RNDM Sisters.

The students renovated a boarding house in Long Dien where 100 students from surrounding communities were receiving education from the Sisters.

Our Year 11 students painted and decorated two classroms, the dining hall and the meeting hall.
