We specialise in performing arts and elite sports, with an equal focus on academic rigour. Performance streams include Acting, Classical Ballet, Dance, Music, Musical Theatre, Technical Production and Elite Tennis.

Staff at The McDonald College are a small and dedicated team with a strong sense of community. Students are at the heart of everything we do, and we share in their passion for performance – whether that is on-stage, on a court or in the classroom.
