MACS Governance Statement
St Michael's Primary School is a school that operates with the consent of the Catholic Archbishop of Melbourne and is operated and governed by Melbourne Archdiocese Catholic Schools Ltd (MACS).
MACS governs and operates 292 Catholic schools in the Archdiocese to continue the mission of Catholic education to proclaim the Good News and equip our young people with the knowledge, skills and hope to live meaningful lives and enrich the world around them.
Because the good work of educating the young is a co-responsible task led by every member of the Catholic school community, School Advisory Councils have been established to provide a crucial point of connection between the wider school community and school leaders.
This governance model was designed to ease the administrative burden on our schools and parishes, allow parish priests to focus on the mission of education in the parish, enable greater collaboration between schools and ensure greater consistency in school policies and procedures.
Welcome to St Michael's
Welcome to St Michael’s Primary, a school with over 150 years of excellence in education. St Michael’s is a welcoming and nurturing community that knows each child. We engage in learning that inspires our students to think deeply and act with justice, compassion and hope. Our personalising of learning is vital to the success of each child’s unique development and preparation for a rapidly changing society.
‘I Am Known’

All students attending St Michael's Primary School have the right to feel safe.
