 I believe that the sheer strength and
 tenacity of women both past and present,
 who have tirelessly persisted to achieve
 equality, justice and recognition in our
 world, despite at times overwhelming
 adversity, is truly extraordinary. This
 continued fearlessness and determination
 gives me hope for a brighter future.

“Going into my future I am so glad
 I spent my formative years at

Congratulations to the Class of 2019
The Sacré Cœur community is immensely proud of the results of the Class of 2019 at an individual and collective level.
They also made a significant contribution to our community over their final year to ensure it was a memorable one for all.

Success comes in countless forms at Sacré Cœur and I am especially pleased that many of our girls achieved at a
level greater than their original hopes and expectations. None of this success is possible without the highest quality
teachers and I thank them all for their dedication and expert guidance.

I am confident they will approach their future studies with the confidence gained from their experience at Sacré Cœur.
