Mary Mackillop College

Brisbane Private Schools introduces Mary Mackillop College in Nundah, for all your education and learning needs.

Mary MacKillop College was opened as a day school in 1963 by the Sisters of St. Joseph and was first known as Mt. St. Joseph’s Students Secondary School. In 1970 the name was changed to Corpus Christi College to avoid confusion with other schools in the area. In 2009, to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Mary MacKillop's death and canonisation, the Sisters of St Joseph renamed the College, Mary MacKillop College.

The Sisters of St. Joseph are a Religious Order founded in Australia in 1866 by our first Australian Saint, Mary MacKillop. In keeping with the spirit of the foundress, Josephite schools continue to have a strong emphasis on faith, community and pastoral care as well as on an education suited to the needs of today.

Today the College has an enrolment of 500 and its students are drawn from a wide range of Brisbane suburbs. The school caters for Years 8 to 12 and has a teaching staff of 35. It is expected that the College will move to incorporate Year 7 in 2015/16.r.
