College Musical - Cinderella
An enormous congratulations to every person involved in our College production of Cinderella. With all the uncertainty around venue and the resulting need for flexibility, each and every person involved did a truly exceptional job.
There have been many comments from audience members about how incredible the whole production was, including the costumes, vocals, dance numbers, and set design.
Thank you to all the staff and students who worked so hard to the musical such an undeniable success!
Commissioning Mass and Top 20
Our College Commissioning Mass, where we welcome our Year 7 students and new staff as a whole College community, was held in the morning of Thursday the 26th.
That afternoon, we recongised the incredible academic achievements of last years class in our Top 20, where we award those who had the top 20 results for the Class of 2026, as well as those who achieved the highest result in each VCE or VCE VM subject, along with scholarship recepients.
It's always amazing to see and hear from those who are worked hard to see truly outstanding results, and inspiring to know what is possible. Congratulations to all who were recognised on the day.
International Women's Day
Our College was excited to celebrate International Women's Day across the week with a whole range of activities.
This morning, we were honoured to host an International Women's Day event on behalf of Sarah Connely, State Member for Laverton. The event celebrated women's achievements, amplified women's voices and created a safe and empowering space for discussion around women's experiences and leadership. We were thrilled to welcome so many of our community partners to our campus, including some of our own student leaders and female Year 11 students.
On the 3rd, students and staff attended the Western Bulldogs' International Women's Day event at the Whitten Oval, and heard from mentors and influential role models.
Then on the 5th, our CTK students heard from three inspiring women in double Learner Mentor in the morning.
Emma Williams is a provisional psychologist, Maori woman and mum of 5 girls, who spoke about growing into our best selves, and that who we are now is very different to who we'll be in five years.
Our next speaker on the panel was Bianca Mickovski, who is one of our 4Cs Alumni! She's been building an online coaching and nutrition program, and spoke about mindset and the importance of backing yourself.
Finally, Ashleigh Lacorcia, founder of Melbourne lashes, built a lash training studio from the ground up, and has more than 20,000 students across the world. She spoke about having confidence and backing yourself, that if you believe you can, you can!
That afternoon, our Sacred Heart students celebrated with trivia, a photobooth, and an encouragement to make a pledge for the sake of women across the globe.
Finally, this morning we welcomed a number of Local, State, and Federal members to our College to celebrate with a breakfast. Students who attended had the opportunity to ask some really meaningful questions during the Q and A session, as well as spending time celebrating one another.
We hope that everyone has a chance to celebrate on International Women's Day on the 8th of March, and finds a way to make it sepcial for all the incredible women in our community who do so much to make it a vibrant and inclusive place!
Project Compassion Launch
Each year our College raises funds for Project Compassion, coordinated by Caritas, in the lead up to Easter. Project Compassion fights back against poverty and injustices across the world, and at our College funds are raised through sausage sizzles, Shrove Tuesday pancake sales, donation boxes, Walkathons and more.
Late last month, Project Compassion was formally launched at MacKillop Secondary College, with our students in attendance.
Keep an eye out on our social media to discover more about ways you can contribute.
Okinawa College Exchange Program
A warm welcome to all of our exchange students from Okinawa, Japan!
The College will host students from our sister school for two weeks, with a number of incredible excursions and Australian experiences. Students have already tried vegemite, lamingtons, and vanilla slices, and we're so excited to see everything else they'll be doing while here at our College.
Year 12 Tree Planting
Last year the College was excited to introduce a new tradition, where our Year 12 leadership plant a tree on behalf of their entire Class.
This year the process was live streamed to the year 12 students in Learner Mentor classes, with prayers for the future andc a recognition that throughout their final year they'll see this tree grow and evolve just as they do.
Ash Wednesday and Shrove Tuesday
The entire College community recognised both Shrove Tuesday and Ash Wednesday, with pancakes on Tuesday raising money for Project Compassion, and Ash Wednesday with a sprinkling of ashes and a liturgy in LM classes.
Year 7 Camps
A big congratulations to our Year 7s, who earlier in the Term attended their first College camp!
It's always exciting to wave off our youngest students as they depart on the buses for three days of learning, adventure, and fun.
Well done on a wonderful first camp!

Our library has recently aqcuired a number of Makerspace robots, which allow students to create, edit, and program their own mini robots!
The project launched last week, and proved to be incredibly popular at both campuses!
