College Facilities
Mackay Christian College caters for students from Pre-Prep (Kindy) to Year 12. The College is located in tropical North Queensland and spans across two campuses, ‘Kings Park’ & ‘Providence’.
Kings Park has rapidly developed since it was established in 1988, and currently caters for students in the Middle and Senior Schools (Year 6 – 12).
Providence campus was established in 2011 and is home to our Junior School (Prep to Year 5) and the Pre-Prep Learning Centre.
King’s Park and Providence campuses are located within 850m of each other making travel between the two campuses very quick and easy to navigate.
We invite you to take a walk through our either our Kings Park or Providence campuses to not only experience the stunning gardens but also gain an appreciation of the first class facilities provided for our students.
You will quickly realise the enormous depth of resources available to your child as we help them achieve their full potential and become all God wants them to be.
Modern, brightly coloured, architecturally designed buildings offer generous classroom and teaching spaces and foster a friendly, uplifting and personal learning environment.
