(05/08/2021- Excerpt from Institution Website)

Inspired by Australia’s first saint, we are working to transform lives with dignity for self determination. Guided by the Gospel, we stand with the poor and the marginalised so they can realise their potential and participate fully in the community. Through access to education and learning of practical life skills, we seek to transform lives. In the spirit of Mary MacKillop, we work in partnership to help create generational change through the teaching of practical life skills to women, men and children in Australia and beyond.

We work with local communities in Australia and internationally through learning for life and enabling access to learning opportunities in the areas of education, health, financial inclusion and livelihoods to share practical life skills that enhance people’s dignity across various stages of life. Through our education and life skills programs we develop essential skills for self-sufficiency.
