College Houses - Charisms and Outreach

Students joining Sacred Heart College are welcomed into one of four College Houses; Julian, Quinlan, Delany and Xavier. Each House has an inspirational hero, a specific charism value and an agency that students work to support throughout each year. 

The Houses have a vital role in service and outreach within our Catholic community and every member of each of the four College Houses learns and lives that service.  The prime purpose of our House system is to give voice and action to outreach.
