Baradene College of the Sacred Heart is a Catholic high school for girls aged between 11 to 18 (Year 7-13) located in Remuera, Auckland, New Zealand. This year (2009) Baradene is celebrating being a school for 100 years. The students participate in school events like House Parades, swimming sports, athletics day, House singing, and gain points for their houses.

They also have at the end of each year a school mass farewelling the seniors of the school.

Every year a different school goal is chosen as the focus of the year from the list of 5:

  • Social awareness which impels to action
  • Faith which is relevant in today's world
  • A deep respect for intellectual values (current 2009 goal)
  • The building of community as a Christian value
  • Personal growth in an atmosphere of wise freedom

Three school buildings, Mitchelson House, the original building, and the former stables, are listed as Category II Historic Places. [2][3][4] The school is currently constructing a new building which is planned to be finished later in 2009.

Baradene College has six houses:

  • Amiens (Red)
  • Barat (White)
  • Erskine (Yellow)
  • Loreto (Green)
  • Philippine (Purple)
