MacKillop Catholic College

Never thanks enough for this school, l still remember the first time l walked in, to enrol my kids (they are just moved from Asia) we got the warmest welcome and offered big opportunity for my kids to try the level of subjects what he want to do which in other schools they not give us option because of barriers language (l been to many schools in Darwin&Palmerston). The principal, staff and teachers are really supportive and very easy to get communication. Its proven...one of my son start in year 11 in MCC with limited English but because all the supports and hard work he graduated and got in to direct entry medical student in Flinders university.nI have 4 kids 2 been there, one current student and one in enrol list. Very happy with the school and my thanks will never end.

Both my kids have moved to MacKillop this year, they love it! Lots of choice for electives, great teachers, great kids excellent results! We love all the opportunities the school has provided for both of them.nI can’t say thank you enough.

My eldest has started her first year at McKillop. She often complains about the uniform and how it doesn’t breathe. The quality of the shirts are not designed for territory weather, also the elastic around the bottom doesn’t help at all. The skorts are like cardboard. They wouldn’t be comfortable at all.nShe often refers to the boys uniform looks much more comfortable especially the shirts.nI went to St Johns college where the uniforms were comfortable and more appropriate for our temperatures of Darwin.nMy suggestion would be to consider a change to allow them to be more breathable and comfortable for all students. Boys and girls uniforms shouldn’t be different. Uniformity should be considered.

My kids love going to Mackillop, like all schools it has small problems but over all it's a great school. I love the uniform, I think it looks smart. When we chose Mackillop we were made aware of the uniform expectations and agreed with them. I like that you can tell the juniors from the seniors. I feel my kids are getting a good around education.

my son got kicked out for being black
