How you can help

The Annual Giving Program provides funds for specified priority building projects. Gifts may be made at any time throughout the year and are tax deductible.

Capital Appeals will be conducted from time to time. Major capital developments as set out in the School's Master Plan will continue to be a priority for the future. Campaigns with set targets and timelines will be determined in consultation with the School Board.

Bequests can make a lasting difference. A very special way of providing for the future of our School is by including the Sacré Cœur Foundation Limited as one of the beneficiaries in your Will. Click here to obtain information from our Bequest Brochure.

Library resources and scholarships make a real and practical difference to the learning and educational experiences available to our students. If you are considering making a gift for one of these purposes, please contact the Foundation Executive Officer .

Sacré Cœur Foundation Professional Development Grant for Staff  in recognition of the invaluable professional contribution made by the staff. A grant of up to $10,000 was made available to provide a professional development opportunity for a staff member in 2009.  The Foundation is seeking financial support to ensure the Professional Development Grant will be made available in future years.

Endowments will be invested and the income earned will be used to provide scholarships and bursaries to assist with student and staff professional development.

Fundraising events are held throughout the year and everyone is welcome to attend. Proceeds for each event will be directed to a special need.

Cor Unum Walk
A special component of the redevelopment of the historic Sacré Cœur gardens is the Cor Unum Walk where the contributions of our students, alumnae, school families and friends are celebrated and current and future students can be inspired for their own journeys of learning and life.

The Cor Unum Walk was officially opened on 17 March 2013 and it creates a physical and distinctive welcome to the many visitors and to the hundreds of students who travel the Cor Unum Walk daily. It forms a component of the main thoroughfare from the School gates towards the main buildings, situated between the entry driveway and the tennis courts and oval.

The Sacré Cœur Foundation would like to take this opportunity to thank the many hundreds of people within the Sacré Cœur community who have purchased a paver to assist in the realisation of this important project.

If you would like to purchase a paver you are still able to do so. Orders submitted by 20 September 2013 will have their engraved brick included in the Walk during Term 4 this year ensuring their paver will be included within our 125th celebration year. Orders for pavers received after that time will be installed on an annual basis. Please click here to download a Cor Unum Walk Paver Order Form.
