Each child's class teacher is the first point of contact for communication about your child's learning and wellbeing. We recommend emailing your child's teacher for support and their email is firstname.surname@mcs.catholic.edu.au
Emails will be acknowledged in a non-teaching period and within 48 hours.
Our Front Office is open Monday to Friday from 8:00am to 4:00pm to assist families with medication requirements, uniform sample sizes, volunteer clearances and any general enquiries or messages. We request that messages for your child be kept to a minimum to minimise interruptions to learning.
Emails are encouraged to info@mcs.catholic.edu.au and this email is checked multiple times a day.
Our phone number is (08) 8397 6450
Absentee messages can be recorded 24 hours a day on (08) 8397 6455
Audiri is our school app and our main communication portal to keep families informed on school events, notices and permission forms. It is highly recommended both parents or caregivers download Audiri and have notifications turned on to receive the latest updates.
Some Audiri posts will be specific to your child's year level and only authorised families in that year level will be able to view that post. Other posts will be for the whole school eg. the McAuley Memo that is posted every second Wednesday.
Please click or tap here for further information and a link to download Audiri from your App store.
It is recommended to update your Audiri app with the latest version as prompted. A search function at the top of the app page, is also available to make it easy to find a previous post.
Leadership will authorise requests to join a year-level group. At the end of each year, user groups are rechecked by Leadership and transitioned to the next year's level so there is no further action needed by families.
Our McAuley Community School website is a comprehensive reference point. Please let us know if there is something else you would like to see on our website by emailing info@mcs.catholic.edu.au

We love an opportunity to connect with families at McAuley and host a Mother's Day and Father's Day event each year.
To start the school year, we host a Family BBQ in February and this year's event was a great success. Thank you to the many families who gathered in the Plaza and also visited their child's open classroom.
To welcome our Reception students, we invite new families to join us for a coffee on their first day of Term One and to our Reception families that begin in Term Three.
A whole school assembly is held every third Monday afternoon, and each year level takes turns to host and present.
A Whole School Information Night is held per annum to share whole school practices on learning.
Our popular Open Morning and Afternoons are held twice per annum for current families to come and visit their child's Neighbourhood.
Throughout the year we hold Arts performances and exhibits and our biggest community event is McAuley Carols on Mawson Oval in the last week of Term Four.
Families are invited to attend our regular liturgies and Masses too.
