McKinnon Secondary College

We are building a second campus for McKinnon Secondary College within the East Village development. The new campus will open in 2022 to meet growing demand for enrolments at the school.

The enrolment zone for McKinnon Secondary College will be expanded from 2022 to incorporate the new campus. You can preview this new school zone here. Please see the drop-down below for more information.

Enrolments

The enrolment zone for McKinnon Secondary College will be expanded from 2022 to incorporate the new campus. It will be bounded by Koornang Road, Leila Road, Crosbie Road, Wallace Avenue, Reid Street, George Street, Poath Road, North Road, Mackie Road and Parkmore Road. The new school zone also includes the East Village precinct. All areas currently zoned to the school are included in the new zone, meaning families living in the current zone will continue to have access to the school.

The new school zone, together with all 2022 government school zones, will be published on findmyschool.vic.gov.au in Term 1, 2021. In the meantime, you can preview this new school zone here. If you are unable to view this map, please call us on 1800 896 950

Policies on enrolment, placement, and admission are available on the Department of Education and Training website.

Engagement

More than 230 students, teachers, parents and community members from McKinnon and the surrounding area participated in a consultation in August/September 2018 on the design, features and use of the planned campus.

We have incorporated the main themes they raised into the master plan:

Build on McKinnon's community spirit, school reputation and commitment to excellence
Need more capacity and facilities for this growing school community
Existing school design and branding should be used to connect the two campuses
Share events, safe access and technology will help connect the two campuses
Outdoor recreation areas, green spaces and communal areas are important for connection and retreat

Master plan

We have designed the new campus for 1100 students, providing them with facilities including:

a four-storey building running the length of the site
outdoor sports amenities with feature landscaping
modern learning environments for science, technology, design, art, music, and drama
a gymnasium with retractable seating and a commercial kitchen, which could be shared for community use.
