24.01.2022 Our Year 8 Reflection Day this year focused on the theme of kindness. Students heard from local community group ‘Be The One', learnt more about what kindness means to them and engaged in activities to challenge their thinking. To conclude the day students created an art mural that is now displayed in the amphitheatre.

21.01.2022 As part of our recent Bandanna Day celebrations, the MacKillop students created their own sidewalk bandanna designs. Their final chalk bandannas were amazing and brought colour and joy to our community. During our fundraising efforts students raised an outstanding $605! Jules from Canteen Australia shared stories about the clients who received the care-packs created during our Athon outreach activities earlier this year. She said the packs have been an amazing support this year, especially through COVID restrictions and thanked Cardijn on behalf of Canteen for our ongoing, generous support.
