200 Years of Catholic Education
Catholic students from across the country have joined together in a video performance of the national song ‘Faith in the Future’, to celebrate 200 years of Catholic education in Australia, which marks the anniversary of the first official Catholic school opened in Parramatta in October 1820.
The ‘Faith in the Future Australian Catholic Schools Version’ features 370 students from 29 Catholic schools across Australia including remote, regional and rural communities such as: St John's Catholic School Richmond in Tasmania, Our Lady Sacred Heart School Waiben (Thursday Island), Sacred Heart College Sorrento in Western Australia, and Our Lady of the Sacred Heart Catholic College Alice Springs in the Northern Territory.
Prime Minister, Scott Morrison, also recorded a message as part of the 200 Years of Catholic Education Mass held Monday 24 May, including a shout-out to Sacred Heart Catholic School Geeveston!
