The MacKillop Weekly Update – last updated 29 July, 2025

Welcome to the MacKillop College Weekly Update, your essential guide to upcoming events and important reminders for our school community.

Each week, this update highlights key dates, special activities, and everything you need to know to stay connected and informed at MacKillop College.

Online Learning Days

To support individual career counselling sessions as part of the Expo, we will be running online learning days for Year 10 and Year 11 students on Wednesday, July 30.

On this days, students will be provided with work via the SEQTA platform, which they are expected to complete independently at home. These online learning days are necessary as a significant number of our teaching staff will be assisting with the individual career counselling sessions.

We appreciate your support and understanding as we work to provide meaningful guidance and opportunities for our students.
