Miss Tonia Bentley
Tonia Bentley, Deputy Principal K-12
Throughout my career, I have taught a range of Junior School grades and worked in learning support and administration. Most of my career has been spent within the SDA school system, but I have enjoyed other systems and states as well. I also spent a year working in Cambridge, UK, which was a fantastic learning experience for me. In my personal time, I love to travel and challenge myself.
I enjoy the outdoors, walking and bike riding, as well as designing and being creative. Visiting an art gallery in a new town or city, combined with a visit to a cafe and a walk or ride, is how I love to spend my downtime. It is such a privilege to work at Macquarie College, a school where learning is valued. The College provides a setting where I can evolve as a professional and play a part in creating a future-focused, Christ-centred learning environment for children to thrive no matter their interests or talents.

Mrs Chemane Fairleigh

Ms Louise Whitaker
Assistant Principal (Design)
MC seeks to support our students holistically, equipping them not only academically but with social and emotional tools to serve them both now and into their futures.
Macquarie College is on a journey of adventure and possibilities. We are creating an environment that is even more student-centred and future-focused.
