Principal's Message

It is with great pleasure that I welcome you to the St Mary MacKillop Primary website.


I'd like to take the opportunity to share a little of our history, culture, faith and experiences.

At St Mary MacKillop Primary, our students and staff are encouraged to strive for personal excellence in all areas of their learning, and to seek to develop themselves fully.

The staff are a professional and dedicated team committed to the education and care of our students. As a community we strive to build a safe and happy environment in which learning is a positive and rewarding experience for all.

The students are offered academic, social and spiritual opportunities appropriate to their needs. As a Catholic school we have a strong faith tradition founded on the teachings of Jesus Christ. We provide a place where families can experience God's presence and be called into his loving grace. We belong to the parish of St Nicholas of Myra, Penrith, and work closely with the Parish Priest, Father Mathew Antony, in building our relationships within the community.

I hope you enjoy this virtual tour of life at St Mary MacKillop Primary. For further enquiries or to make an appointment to visit, please contact our school office. We would love to share our special place with you.


Mr Scott Buchan
Principal
