Acknowledging Saint Marcellin Champagnat, this Friday 13th June- for students in the Champagnat (Gold) House:
This Friday, students in the Champagnat House (Gold) are invited to wear their sports uniform & a gold/yellow accessory (hair band, hat, ribbon, socks- NO coloured hairspray, please) in acknowledgement of Saint Marcellin Champagnat, founder of the Marist Brothers.
What is the connection between Sacred Heart school and Saint Marcellin Champagnat? On the 14th of September, 1922, the Marist Brothers opened a school on our site- prior to this date, the school that was built on our site had been run by the Sisters of Mercy and it was known as St Brigid’s school. In 1944, St Brigid’s part of the school was closed and the Marist brothers school was extended in the year 1945. In 1954, the school on our site was opened as the Sacred Heart school. |
