Dear Readers,
 Welcome to the website of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Catholic College, Alice Springs. The College has an enrolment in excess of one thousand students, centred on four administrative units, namely, the Indigenous Pre-School Learning Centre, the Bath Street Campus (Transition to Year 4), the Traeger Campus (Years 5 to 8) and the Sadadeen Campus (Years 9 to 12). There is also a central College office at the Sadadeen site.
Although on a day to day basis the units run reasonably independently, they each play an important role in the whole College structure and in the Christian family spirit that underlies the dynamics and philosophy of the College. Many families have children at two or more of the campuses.
The Opening School Mass, celebrated on Friday, 18th March 2011, was a wonderful gathering for our school community and a special opportunity for everyone to appreciate the talents of the College staff and students. There were over 1,200 people in attendance.
The Alice Springs' Convention Centre was suitably prepared for this official opening of the school year. Clearly, Bishop Hurley was delighted to be amongst us and to experience our rather large school family. He spoke warmly to the students and compared the love of a mother for her baby to the love that God has for each one of us. He said that one of the most beautiful images that we can have of God is that of the face of a young baby. The Bishop was the main celebrant for the Mass and he was accompanied by Fr Jim Knight and Fr Michael Nguyen.
