New precinct planned for Sacred Heart Cathedral site aims to give Bendigo a boost
The Catholic Diocese of Sandhurst has submitted plans to rejuvenate the church-owned land adjacent to Sacred Heart Cathedral at the corner of High Street and Short Street.
The $30 million plans will create a new precinct in Bendigo called Cathedral Square.
The new Cathedral Square development will create a vibrant new public space and tourism landmark at the entrance to Bendigo. It will include a new contemporary building and newly landscaped parklands that will respect the local aesthetic and complement the Cathedral.
Bishop's Shane's Homily Chrism Mass 2024
Bishop Shane spoke of the 150 years since the Dicoese was established, recognising that mission remains constant.
An Easter Message from Bishop Shane Mackinlay
... may the generations of faithful Christians who have gone before us encourage and inspire us ... us to make Jesus’ giving of himself the pattern of our own lives.

Year in Review 2023
International Women's Day 2024 "Inspire Inclusion"
“Each year, when we celebrate International Women’s Day, we are reminded of the ongoing need to take stock of how we are enabling the dignity and equality of women and bringing it to the fore," says Bishop Michael Morrissey.
Student Leaders Shine
It seems the future is in very good hands as the young people in our schools remind us that they are not just the leaders of tomorrow; they're actively contributing to positive change today.
