Sacred Heart Catholic College - History

History

It accepts boys and girls aged 11–18, primarily from one of its Catholic feeder primary schools including Great Crosby Catholic Primary School, Ursuline Catholic Primary School and the St. Edmund's and St. Thomas' Catholic Primary School.

The school is currently split across two sites. The Upper Site (which primarily deals with Year 9, Year 10, Year 11 and A-level students) is the former Seafield Convent building, whilst the lower site (which primarily deals with Year 7 and Year 8 students), situated on Myers Road East is the former St Bede's. The sites are within a short walk of each other. The school's Upper Site was used as a setting for the film Nowhere Boy.

Famous quotes containing the word history:

    The history of all Magazines shows plainly that those which have attained celebrity were indebted for it to articles similar in natureto Berenice—although, I grant you, far superior in style and execution. I say similar in nature. You ask me in what does this nature consist? In the ludicrous heightened into the grotesque: the fearful coloured into the horrible: the witty exaggerated into the burlesque: the singular wrought out into the strange and mystical.
    Edgar Allan Poe (1809–1849)

    Throughout the history of commercial life nobody has ever quite liked the commission man. His function is too vague, his presence always seems one too many, his profit looks too easy, and even when you admit that he has a necessary function, you feel that this function is, as it were, a personification of something that in an ethical society would not need to exist. If people could deal with one another honestly, they would not need agents.
    Raymond Chandler (1888–1959)

    What is most interesting and valuable in it, however, is not the materials for the history of Pontiac, or Braddock, or the Northwest, which it furnishes; not the annals of the country, but the natural facts, or perennials, which are ever without date. When out of history the truth shall be extracted, it will have shed its dates like withered leaves.
    Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
