Two Campuses in the Tuggeranong Valley
St Mary MacKillop College is a two-campus school, with Years 7-9 based at the Padua Campus in Wanniassa and Years 10-12 based at the St Peter's Campus in Isabella Plains.
The Padua Campus
As people approach the Padua Campus, they are greeted by the iconic dark blue entranceway and the words, “Faith and Courage,” the College motto.
Originally the home of Padua High School, the College's 'Junior Campus' accommodates students for Years 7, 8, and 9. As the oldest year group at Wanniassa, Year 9 students are provided with the opportunity to play a significant role in the leadership of the campus.
Facilities
To support the breadth of curriculum offered at the Padua Campus, an excellent range of facilities exist. These include a new state-of-the-art STEM Centre, a modern Learning Commons Library, the award-winning College Chapel, and refurbished science laboratories, music rooms, theatre, kitchens, and textiles room.
The Campus also has two gymnasiums, technology workshops, art studios, a weights room, basketball and multi-purpose courts, and an oval.

The St Peter's Campus
The first thing you’ll notice about the St Peter's Campus is how open it is, with blocks of classrooms linked by courtyards and external walkways. The open feel of the campus suits the older students – more freedom, more trust, and more responsibility.
Formerly the home of St Peter’s College, the College's 'Senior Campus' accommodates students in Years 10, 11 and 12.
Facilities
Specialist facilities on the St Peter's Campus include a brand new Performing Arts Centre (complete with a theatre, drama and dance rooms, and music rooms with a recording studio), state-of-the-art science laboratories, a STEM fabrication laboratory, three commercial kitchens, textile and art studios, industrial technology workshops, gymnasium, strength and conditioning rooms, basketball courts, oval, lecture theatre, Academic Resource Centre, cafeteria, Learning Commons, and the impressive Trades Training Centre.
The Trades Training Centre’s industrial kitchens, construction hangar, and construction yard allow students to work towards Vocational Certificates in the fields of Hospitality and Construction while they complete their Senior Secondary Certificate.
