Overview

Once again Mackellar Girls’ can boast a proud record of individual and group achievement in 2011. Mackellar girls are regularly featured in print media for their outstanding achievement in a wide variety of sports. There have been many ex-Mackellar students who have gone to achieve excellence in the international sporting arena such as Layne Beachley, Elka Graham, Brooke Hanson & Debbie Watson.

Upon entering Mackellar Girls Campus, girls are placed in houses alphabetically. From 2011, new house names have been created based on the aboriginal meanings for Australian native birds. (see chart below)
