About our school
A Prep to Year 12 school, our College commenced in 2016 offering Prep to Year 3. Over the years to come, we will develop our full offerings through to Year 12, with an anticipated 1600 students, their families and members of staff forming our College community. Our full primary offering, Prep to Year 6, was in place in 2019, and secondary education commenced with Year 7 in 2020. Our first Year 12 cohort will graduate in 2025.
MacKillop Catholic College is situated in the southern corridor of Cairns. We value our welcoming, inclusive community, our innovative curriculum, engaging pedagogy, and dedicated staff. The dispositions of Respect, Engagement and Personal Best underpin all that we do at MacKillop.
Principal's Message
As a Catholic school, we are inspired by the vision of Christ’s Gospel as an authentic way to shape our humanity. We look to our patron, St Mary MacKillop – her spirituality and her life’s work – as an example of the way being a disciple of Jesus gives life meaning, purpose and direction. Likewise, we too strive to be disciples of Jesus, inspired by Mary MacKillop’s example. This gives the flavour to all we are called to accomplish as a Catholic school community.
We are committed to joining with parents and families in partnership for the education, development and formation of our young people. And this we do in a safe, caring and disciplined environment.
We look forward to partnering with you in Inspiring the Hearts, Minds and Spirits of our young people. Come, join us!
