This school is not helping son at all, they need to control some of the girls in year 6 and watch their behaviour on other kids. This is unfair and no child should be getting picked on |

Too expensive, some teachers are rude and take certain students word. I feel unheard and everyone here is rude… the sporting at this school is poor. Christian school yet no one lives to that like seriously? Why are people so rude and selfish. The canteen is a rip off also |

i rate this school so bad because all the teachers are bias and sexist and most of them only care about the money and i literally got a detention for something i didnt start beause some girls were spreading rumors and i called them names for it was all i did while they were being rasict i got a detention and they didnt get anything the education is so bad and all they care about is your uniform and thier school pride or something and they litterally have to go to a free place that anyone can take and this is literally a private school also home to islanders which threaten you for almost anything you have to give them your food, your pen or they beat you up DONT GO TO THIS SCHOOL |

School's environment is excellent, it is very easy to find yourself a friend in under a second as most students are friendly [from what I've experienced] 50/50 teachers are dedicated into making students gain the top marks as much as they can and some are quite lazy and unwilling to be completely honest. Overall education quality is average, tuition fees are as low as you can get compared to other adventist schools, but it'd be easy for students to gain a schloarship. Overall, rate this school 6.5/10 towards environment and connections but not so much towards grading. |

The school is a very welcoming one, you'll be assigned someone (a buddy) to accompany you through the day on your first day and if you really hit it off you could become friends. The school is quite strict in the uniform department but it does make sense why they would enforce it. If I had to rate the the school out of 10, it'd be a 7.5/10. |

Not gotta lie, the school is pretty good. You can make friends under a MINUTE. So the people are good. But, what about the education system? Not bad tbh, just average. May be some time to get use to. The teachers are kinda cool, but sometimes strict. I would definitely rate this school a 8/10. I’m new and I’m in year 7 so I just know all about High School. (Idk about primary) ;-; And also I just moved here from the Illawarra xD |

This is my 9th year at MAC. It's a school full of faith, love, joy and friendliness. |

As a student of this fine establishment, I can say that this school has such a family feel to it and I have never felt more at home in a school ever. Sure education is not at the level of some top schools but it doesn't mean that our teachers work hard and fight for us and for us to have a much greater education standard and for us to feel the presence of God and build a relationship with him for something more important than education and that is eternal life and the knowledge of the truth. I'm not perfect and neither is the school but we do the best we can and we don't have to prove anything if you can't accept and be grateful for our efforts. yours truly, Josaia.R 11A 2165 BABY!!! 05.07.19 |

I've been to Macarthur Adventist college for 4yrs now and it has changed a lot over the years and also its opinions. The school has developed a lot of resources and buildings. They are still pretty strict with uniform but our sport uniform has changed into better material. They're also real strict about assignments not being handed in and work which hasn't been done. But overall one of the best things about our school is we are very welcoming school and also over the years our education has been at a better standard due to our new resources. |

I don't know what people really expect from a school that they rated it bad but I would say it's quite a good school. My daughter Brishti Soprano is very happy with her school and she is learning for sure! |

Fellow readers of this review i personally agree with all of youse. They do fuss over items that AREN'T SCHOOL UNIFORMS but if you think more about why they care over the SMALLEST ITEMS OF UNIFORMS maybe that would change your view of how they run the school.My close friend goes to the school and found out that they do this because before stricter teachers came they were wearing whatever they pleased and what pleased them. My friend also said that their material is not good for them to play in or long-lasting. But to be honest they do have a bad education that has the highest fees i've seen in my life. Their education is not the best but I know someone who goes here and he lives in Wiley Park but his mum refuses to send him elsewhere because of the great christian CHRISTIAN education they have here. |

I write my child a note explaining why they don't have their p.e uniform but they get in detention anyways because they didn't bring spare change?? But they have to play?? I don't understand! Then my child gets in trouble for wearing navy blue shorts that we bought at a SPORTS CLOTHING STORE because it doesn't have the logo on it? And then they get in trouble for wear chucks on sports days when chucks were made for basketball. All you worry about is uniform when the fabric dosent last. The sport shorts are not even proper sport shorts, more like formal shorts. Straight money thirsty. Up your game dumbasses. |

This school is very poor. They really need to get their act together. Seriously. Don't even care about education and about the uniform! Seriously, is it really that bad. Teachers are bad and really seem to not care about their students, and rather getting paid. Don't go here. If you go here, your guaranteed to fail! |

This school has an bloody poor education and they actually care more about the school uniform more than what they are teaching, this school is an rip off of about 2000 to 3000 dollars just for your child to learn something within a week in tuition for about 50 dollars, seriously... Parents, if you see this review please do not even think about putting your child in there unless you want your child to end up facing suspension cause of his uniform and also having the worst education ever, my advice is to send your child to an public school and use the money on tuition if you want to your child to have a better future. |

Macarthur is a great school that is beginning to rapidly expand. I went to Macarthur Adventist College for Year 12 and found it a much more supportive atmosphere than most of the bigger schools i have attended. I would recommend Macarthur to anyone who wishes to be in a smaller more intimate classroom setting where the teacher actual knows everyone's names. The teachers at Macarthur are always willing to help even offering after school classes for the senior high school. For anyone looking for a good, christian school, i definitely would recommend Macarthur Adventist College. |
