What is the connection between Sacred Heart and Bishop John Bede Polding? John Bede Polding was the first Roman Catholic Bishop and Archbishop of Sydney. Born in England, he arrived in Sydney in 1835. His compassion shone through with the care that he showed towards convicts, Indigenous Australian communities and women in need. Polding honoured every human being with the respect of God. He worked tirelessly to bring Priests and Religious orders to Australia to establish Catholic schooling and provide an education for the youth. Our Red ‘Polding’ House is named after Bishop John Bede Polding for all his good works, and for the contribution that he made to the establishment of Catholic Education in Australia. |
