International Exchange between Sacred Heart Halifax & Sacred Heart Atherton, California!

Two of our high school exchange students Maddy and Sebastian and elementary school student, Elena, daughter of Sra Rojo, attended classes at Sacred Heart School in Atherton, California recently.  Sra Rojo was on a professional exchange and brought her daughter.

Maddy and Sebastian found a painting of Mater Admirabilis at Atherton!
