| Principal's Welcome |
Esto Mundi Lumen - With Mary’s help be a light for the world
I feel proud and blessed to be the Principal of MacKillop College, Bathurst, and I am pleased that you have decided to find out more about our wonderful school by visiting our website.
MacKillop College, an all girl’s Catholic secondary school, is enlivened by the beautiful traditions of the Sisters of Mercy and the Sisters of St Joseph. As such, the College is a place where students are encouraged to build positive relationships so that the spirit of community flourishes, to develop their own unique qualities and talents in order to grow towards their personal potential, and to dedicate themselves to helping others, being visible signs of Christ in our world.
An education at MacKillop College offers a broad range of opportunities, which provide students with the best possible chance to develop all aspects of themselves: the academic, the spiritual, the physical, the social. The MacKillop College culture of high expectations with high levels of support, helps to create a learning community where our girls feel safe and welcome, and where they can comfortably strive to achieve their goals.
The spirit of community is strong at MacKillop College. It is a spirit underpinned by respect, tolerance and love, and it is a spirit that allows us to welcome applications from students and families from all backgrounds. If you are desiring a welcoming and supportive school to nurture the growth of your daughter on her educational journey, I invite you to consider MacKillop College. Please contact the College for more information or if you would like to book a tour to see our beautiful College first hand.
I look forward to an opportunity to meet you in person.
Mr Peter Halpin
College Principal
