Scholarships

Sacred Heart is deeply committed to empowering every student through education and supporting their capacity to make a meaningful, just impact on society.

To remove barriers to academic excellence, our Equity Scholarship Program is purposefully designed to expand learning opportunities for families with demonstrated financial need, ensuring that a transformative Sacred Heart education remains accessible, inclusive and supportive of every student's potential.

Navigating a new country, culture and educational landscape presents profound challenges for refugee families, often serving as the primary barrier to a student’s learning journey. 

In keeping with our rich Mercy heritage of hospitality and social justice, we offer an Inclusion and Diversity Scholarship. This scholarship is a fully funded initiative specifically designed to welcome, enable and support first-generation refugee students in a safe and nurturing environment.

Designed to ensure a seamless and dignifying integration into College life, this scholarship extends holistic, wraparound support to both the student and their family, including:

• Personalised Transitions: Individualised arrival and orientation frameworks alongside dedicated family engagement initiatives.
• Targeted Learning: Supported literacy and numeracy program.
• Holistic Wellbeing: Targeted social-emotional learning programs, professional counselling, peer-to-peer networks and tailored mentoring.
• Community Connection: Dedicated pastoral support groups designed to build a profound sense of belonging, cross-cultural appreciation and mutual respect.
