The Flame in the North - Centenary Celebrations of the Daughters of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart in Northern and Central Australia 1908 to 2008
An exhibition of dedication and courage.
In July 2008 the Daughters of Our Lady of the Sacred Heart celebrate the centenary of their arrival in northern Australia. In July 1908 Sisters Eustille Sayers, Dominica O’Sullivan, Bertrand Sweeney, Kieran Doyle and Hyacinth Lenehan arrived in Darwin by boat, as pioneers in Catholic education, health care and pastoral services throughout the Northern Territory and the Torres Strait Islands.
This exhibition explores and celebrates their dedication to the spiritual, physical, education and social well-being of the Indigenous and non-Indigenous people of northern Australia, through their tireless work in some of the most inhospitable Australian landscapes as well as their vital contribution to the development of today's modern northern centres.
