The College has a number of special programs that provide students with enhanced learning opportunities, support with their studies, or enable them to pursue areas of interest and targeted elective choices.
Careers Advice & Support
MacKillop students have access to a Careers Advisor, who can connect students with Australian School-Based Apprenticeships and employment opportunities, as well as providing information about the workplace and further learning.
MacKillop students have the opportunity to visit Italy, France, Japan, Greece, New Zealand, the United States, South-East Asia, as well as other locations around Australia.
St Mary MacKillop College's Learning Alumni Platform is a professional learning network for past students of the College who are now teachers in the ACT, NSW and beyond.
The St Mary MacKillop PE Pathways Program has been designed to support students who aim to reach an elite level in their selected sport, with a focus on students’ long-term athletic development.
At St Mary MacKillop College, the learning needs of our students are paramount. To acknowledge and challenge our students who are excelling in academic pursuit, we offer The Infinite Program.
St Mary of the Cross MacKillop made the statement: “We are but travellers here, so while we are here we should do as much good as we can and live in peace with each other.”
With this in mind, the College respectfully acknowledges the Ngunnawal people who are the Traditional Custodians and First People of the land on which we gather each day. The College also pays its respects to the Elders past, present and emerging, and any other Aboriginal or Torres Strait Islander peoples living and working in the MacKillop community.
