Welcome to the Mac.Robertson Girls’ High School.

Community. Growth. Responsibility. Compassion.

Mac.Rob is a government selective entry high school for high-ability students in Years 9-12

Formally established in 1934, Mac.Rob plays a vital and inclusive role as one of the four selective entry schools in Victoria by ensuring a sense of connection, belonging, and challenge for like-minded, high-achieving students.

Located on Boon Wurrung country in the leafy heart of Naarm (Melbourne), Mac.Rob is one of Victoria’s four selective entry high schools, and one of the top-scoring public schools in the state. Students at selective entry high schools are driven, self-motivated, and high achievers in maths and sciences, visual and performing arts, physical education, and humanities subjects. The role of a selective entry school is to ensure a sense of connection, belonging, and challenge for like-minded, high-ability students.

Mac.Rob is a unique and special place. On behalf of our staff and students, I warmly welcome you to our school.

Acknowledgement of Country

Mac.Rob acknowledges, respects and expresses our gratitude to the Bunurong people, the Traditional Custodians on whose ancestral lands our school was founded.

We acknowledge the deep relationship of First Nations peoples to Country and their continued care of the lands, waterways and skies.

We commit to building a community through better relationships and greater understanding with Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and by actively working towards reconciliation to make a better future for us all.

We pay our respects to Indigenous Elders past, present and emerging.

We acknowledge that Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples' sovereignty was never ceded and the land on which we gather today always was and always will be Aboriginal land.

Located on the grounds of Albert Park, close to public transport, MSAC, and the CBD, Mac.Rob is an oasis in the heart of Naarm (Melbourne).
