Sacred Heart College

Adelaide Schools introduces Sacred Heart College in Sorrento, for all your education and learning needs.

Sacred Heart College is a Catholic Co-Educational Secondary School offering education to boys and girls in Years 7-12.

The College was established in 1967 by the Sisters of Our Lady of the Missions who over a period of years since 1897 have operated various schools in Highgate, Fremantle and country areas of WA.

Initially a girls’ school, the growth of the population in the surrounding suburbs gave rise to a need for the school to expand its number and enrol boys. The first group of boys was enrolled in 1977.

The College is now fully co-educational with an intake of approximately 204 students in Year 7. The full student enrolment is approximately 1170.

The College is situated on an 8-hectare site overlooking the Indian Ocean. Extensive playing fields presently include an oval, hard courts for tennis, netball, volleyball and basketball, as well as cricket practice nets.

Buildings on site include a Resource Centre, Science laboratories, general classrooms and specialist rooms for Computing, Technology and Enterprise, Media Studies, Remediation and Education Support. The McInerney Centre incorporates a gymnasium and provides facilities for education in the Performing Arts (Dance, Drama and Music). We also have a Chapel.

The Pastoral Care Centre is ideally located in the middle of the College and is the focal point for student needs. Within this building are offices for the College Chaplain, Educational Psychologist and the 6 Deans of Students who are allocated to each Year group.
