About Us
About Our School
For over a century, Kincoppal-Rose Bay School of the Sacred Heart has been educating the hearts and minds of students, preparing them for lives of courage and confidence.
KRB is a leading Catholic independent school and part of the international network of Sacred Heart Schools. Located in Sydney’s eastern suburb of Rose Bay, against the stunning backdrop of Sydney Harbour. Our school caters for boys (ELC-6) and girls day (ELC-12) and boarding (Years 7-12). We help each individual to discover their purpose while cultivating their talents and passions. Importantly, we foster a commitment to service as global citizens of the world. We provide our students with access to the latest thinking, concepts and practice in the broader world.
Our focus is on the positive education of the whole student – educating both the heart and the mind as the School’s motto ‘Cor Unum’ suggests. We encourage our students to pursue their personal strengths, passions and talents; become independent, lifelong learners; develop empathy with others; and feel secure in their world with the belief that they have the capacity to transform it.
Our academic and co-curricular programs promote global awareness and social responsibility, with students encouraged to become alert to the world beyond their own lives and to act where the need exists. Kincoppal-Rose Bay is a school with a strong spirit and an even stronger heart that remains committed to developing young men and women of integrity and compassion, who are equipped with a lifelong love of learning.
Principal's Welcome
Principal's Welcome
I warmly welcome you to Kincoppal-Rose Bay, School of the Sacred Heart.
Our school educates boys and girls from 3 years of age to the end of Year 6. From Year 7 to Year 12, we educate young women, offering day and boarding places.
The beautiful harbour at Rose Bay is a serene backdrop to the learning, development and adventure that takes place within our school every day. For our youngest students in the Early Learning Centre, our unique campus allows them to experience the joy of nature through their Wild Time program. For our Boarders, KRB is a home away from home where they can relax and unwind. Each student in our school is valued and we hope they all find that our campus is a place of endeavor, growth and connection. Our corridors are always filled with the sound of laughter from students who have a thirst for greater knowledge and inquiry, and an obvious desire to do more, and be more.
