The Coat of arms itself is clear in its significance. The lotus stands for purity and integrity. It is resting on a sea of blue, a colour denoting the Blessed Virgin Mary, the chosen Mother of Jesus Christ. The heart inside a cross is the Heart of Jesus who was crucified to redeem the humankind. The ring of thorns around the Heart tells us that the Heart of Jesus loves us even to the point of suffering. The open book is the symbol of knowledge that the college imparts. Sacred Heart College is named after the Sacred Heart of Jesus Christ Himself.

AD OMNE OPUS BONUM INSTRUCTI is the motto of our college. Various translations, are possible. 'Ready for every Good Work' is one. Another highly significant translation is that given by Rev.
