Principal’s Welcome
Welcome to the Mary MacKillop Catholic Community Primary School website. My name is Laurie Bechelli and I have been the principal here since 2018. It is a great privilege to work in such a welcoming environment which offers a progressive and contemporary education for our students.
Mary MacKillop Catholic Community Primary School caters for boys and girls from K-6 and our main focus is to provide a quality Catholic education to all students in our care. We aim to provide a safe, caring and loving environment for all students. Our school is centered on the Gospel values that define our Catholic faith along with the incredible example of seeing a need and doing something about it as demonstrated by Saint Mary of the Cross MacKillop, Australia’s first saint.
Our school is characterised by its strong sense of community, with our relationship with Fr John and our parish being a key element. The staff are very professional and they work collaboratively to provide our students with all they need to receive a quality education that will prepare them for life in a rapidly changing world.
I thoroughly enjoy my role as Principal and I look forward to working with you here at Mary MacKillop.
Yours sincerely
Laurie Bechelli
Principal
