Mary MacKillop Catholic College Principal Chris Gabbett was very pleased to receive confirmation of funding for the Uluru Arts Precinct from the Minister for Education, Grace Grace earlier this month. 

The Queensland Government have committed just under $1.2 million to complement the Commonwealth funding announced in November by Garth Hamilton, Federal Member for Groome.  This contribution will support the College’s vision of developing state of the art performance facilities for the students at the College. 

Mr Gabbett said, ‘Our goal at Mary MacKillop is to provide an outstanding and holistic education for our students.  Modern and exciting Arts facilities are central to that and I am so appreciative of the State and Federal Government and the Queensland Catholic Education Commission for this support’.
