Macquarie College is open to families of all faiths and religious persuasions who have regard for Adventist Christian faith and wish for their children fully to participate in all aspects of the College program. Our fees are competitively structured and provide the average family greater access to private education. As limited places are available, parents are advised to submit an Enrolment Application without delay to avoid disappointment. Arrangements will then be made for testing and an appointment organised for you to inspect the facilities and to discuss the education program offered at the College.
