School & Education Programs

Schools are invited to contact the Heritage Centre Education staff to arrange a group experience of the Mary MacKillop Museum.

The Heritage Centre offers an introductory talk on Mary MacKillop, a guided small group tour of the Museum and follow up activities appropriate to the group. Students also see the Chapel where St Mary of the Cross MacKillop prayed and visit the Temporary Gallery to view the changing displays and exhibits on offer.

Programs are available for primary and secondary students as well as special groups.

First Communion and Confirmation Reflection Days are also available for student groups. During these specially arranged days students utilise appropriate resources and where possible, participate in a prayer or liturgical celebration in the Mary MacKillop Chapel.

Groups returning to the Museum are offered a range of activities and learn about different aspects of Mary MacKillop’s life and work.

Please contact us regarding a range remote interactive educational programs for schools, providing students with access to engaging and effective learning experiences.
