UNESCO CONFERENCE - PARIS

Back in March, our Junior and Senior Choirs performed a song called 'A Small Part of the World' in the  auditorium, and our performance was livestreamed to a UNESCO conference in Paris and to many hundreds of others participating virtually across Europe.  The song represents standing together for what is right and we dedicated our performance to the people of Ukraine, when that tragic conflict had only recently begun.

Sacred Heart were invited to represent Newcastle as part of the North East Festival of Languages, and in the outro our students showcase some of the many languages spoken in our school community.

The video (linked below) combines footage from the enormous UN conference venue in Paris with our own footage from the Auditorium.  What better way to celebrate the Goal of Intellect on this special Feast Day than to celebrate the musical and linguistic gifts of our Sacred Heart students!

SHINE - SCIENCE CURRICULUM

Sacred Heart is leading an innovative new project that is seeking to sharpen the science skills of hundreds of schoolchildren in Newcastle and Northumberland.

Thanks to a grant of £90,000 from SHINE, and through a partnership with regional schools’ network Schools North East, a Science curriculum is being developed alongside six of our primary feeder schools that is designed to give primary pupils the skills they need to succeed in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics when they move to secondary school.

WALK TO END HUNGER

“Walk to end Hunger”: Sacred Heart to the Vatican

As a school community we are going to travel 2280km in the week of the 4th-8thApril. (The distance between Sacred Heart and the Vatican)

All members of our school community both staff and students are being encouraged to walk, run, cycle, row swim etc at least 2km each to contribute to our total. All money raised will go to helping rural communities with things like crops, clean water and education on feeding children nutritional meals as well as providing them with the ingredients/seeds needed.

We are doing it to raise money for CAFOD throughout Lent and we would appreciate any sponsorship you can give us!
