Sacred Heart Girls' College 2021 Calendar

Kirsten from Hamilton East

Kia ora - my name is Kirsten and I'm the Archivist & Alumni Administrator at Sacred Heart Girls' College in Hamilton East.

This year I have created a HERstory Calendar 2021, which is unique to Sacred Heart and the Hamilton East area. Historical photographs range from the 1940s through to today, and include St Mary's Convent & Chapel, the Cathedral and you'll recognise the Riverina in the background of one too.

Also included are artifacts from our archival collection and quotes from our founder, Euprahsie Barbier. All 2021 school term dates are included, as are the religious holidays and feast days. The calendar goes to January 2022.

Having been part of the Hamilton East community for over 135 years, we would love to have your support. Calendars are available for $20 each using this Order Form: forms.gle...

Price: $20

Poll: Would you help your kids out with buying a home?

Libby Totton Reporter from Waikato Times

OPINION: Over the past year, I’ve had the same conversation with many Waikato families again and again.

A child has found a house. The market feels like it’s moving. There’s pressure to act quickly. And before anyone has really had time to think it through, parents are being asked to step in with cash, guarantees, or equity from their own home.

Would you help your kids out with buying a home? Tell us more in the comments (adding NFP if you don't want your words used in print).
