Salary Packaging

Kennedy Baptist College may offer you the opportunity to salary package some items. Generally, the salary packaged item is paid directly from your before-tax salary to the service provider. Paying the item from your before-tax salary is often referred to as salary sacrifice.

Our campus is modern and well-resourced. Set amid stunning natural bushland surrounds, it is located on the southern side of the Murdoch University grounds. We continue to grow and evolve as part of our master plan that includes major upgrades to our facilities and offices.

We are located five minutes from the Farrington Road exit off Kwinana Freeway, with easy, direct access to the Murdoch train station and the Fiona Stanley Hospital complex. It is a short drive to local shops in Bull Creek, Leeming or Kardinya.

Parking is available to all staff. Public transport is also made easy, with Transperth bus stops at Kennedy Baptist College from Murdoch and Cockburn Central train stations. Other Transperth buses are available at the Murdoch University bus stop.
