The Junior School Showcase provides an opportunity to view the  amazing project work of our Junior School students, including:

• Year 7 Project Respect
• Year 8 Make a Difference (MAD) Project
• Year 9 Major Projects

More information on each of these areas is provided below. 

The Junior School Showcase will be held onsite. Visitors can park either in the front car parks and follow the signage to the rear of the College, or alternatively park on the basketball courts near the Quambi sports stadium, accessible via Begg St. 

Year 7 - Gallery of Learning

In Year 7 our students take centre stage in a Gallery of Learning, where they proudly showcase their personal growth alongside academic achievement from their first year at Sacred Heart. Guided by the Mercy value Respect, they show how they’ve built strong relationships with peers, teachers, and the wider school community. For this special event, every Year 7 student will be a tour guide for their family, leading them around their homeroom gallery to share what they’ve learned, how they’ve changed, and what it means to be a respectful, confident member of the Sacred Heart community.

Year 8 - ‘Make a Difference’ (MAD) Project

The MAD Project is a significant part of the Religious Education program at Year 8. The project invites students to choose an environmental or social issue to research and investigate across a four month period, in their Religious Education classes. The project aims to encourage students to learn about an issue while also identifying ways that they can each can Make a Difference, whether this be through informing others about the issue at a local or community level, or making steps towards improvement or change. Ultimately it reminds us that there are many ways that individuals really can Make a Difference.

Year 9 - Major Projects

The Year 9 Expo Project is a longstanding tradition at Sacred Heart College. Each year, students pursue an area of their own passion and interest to produce project items that celebrate their unique gifts and talents. The project fosters skills in planning, time-management, and design, with the presentation evening at the Junior School Showcase being a celebration of all that has been achieved. On the night of the showcase, you can expect to find Quambi (the College sports centre) and the Atrium full to capacity with refurbished furniture, remodelled cars, upcycled fabrics, original photography and works of art, an array of handmade items and everything else in between. It's an experience not to be missed!
