Established in 1888, the school caters for over 700 students from Prep to Year 12 and has an open-entry policy.[2] It offers the Victorian Certificate of Education (VCE). The school was ranked 7th out of all the schools in Victoria for VCE in 2013 and 1st out of all the Catholic schools for the second consecutive year.[3] Sacré Cœur is a member of Girls Sport Victoria (GSV), the Junior School Heads Association of Australia[4] and the Association of Heads of Independent Schools of Australia (AHISA)[5] It is part of the international network of Sacré Cœur schools. In 2013, the school celebrated 125 years of schooling at their current Burke Road campus. HistoryThe School was founded by the French order of nuns, the Society of the Sacred Heart (RSCJ) in 1888. Sacré Cœur, has its origins in the vision of Madeleine Sophie Barat, who founded the Society of the Sacred Heart in Paris in 1800. Growing up during the French Revolution in the small town of Joigny about 80 miles south of Paris, Sophie felt a strong call to religious life from an early age. Although her attraction was to a strictly contemplative life, her reflections led her to the realisation that an education based on Christian values was essential for a more just society to emerge from the upheaval of the revolution. Having an unusually strong classical education herself, she envisioned an education for girls which would develop each student's gifts to the fullest, lay the foundations for a solid, active faith including compassionate service to the poor, and awaken a thirst for lifelong learning. HousesThere are four Houses, named after the school's founder St Madeleine Sophie Barat and Mothers Superior of the school; Digby, Duschesne, Stuart and Barat. The four house colours are Red, Green, Yellow and Blue. The four houses annually compete in an array of inter house competitions. These competitions include House Athletics, House Swimming and the House Arts festival. ProgramsIn Year 8, students take part in a 2-week City Cite experience. The City Cite program aims to encourage high levels of personal organisation and responsibility, social competence, leadership and resilience. It gives the students an opportunity to learn in a different environment, and become familiar with their city whilst working independently and in groups. Students are accompanied and assisted by staff members throughout the City Cite experience.[6] In Year 9, students take part in the Notre Monde program. The program takes place in a designated part of the school, and is composed of multiple units that run for 6 weeks each. The Notre Monde program allows girls to experience learning in a broad variety of environments. It covers numerous subjects, with a few being Social Justice, Visual and Creative Arts and International studies. iPads have been integrated into the program, with every student and staff member possessing one for the duration of the year.[7] In Years 10 and 11, students are invited to partake in an international exchange program. The countries students are able to visit include:[8]
