The best decisions for her future

MLC School encourages all our students from Pre-Kindergarten to Year 12 to achieve the very best they can at whatever they do and to discover ways in which they can contribute positively to society.

Making the most of her opportunities

We anticipate that all enrolled students will strive to make a positive contribution to the life of the School and will benefit from our academic and pastoral care programs. Students make the most of the opportunities at MLC when they are also fully involved in the extensive extra curricular activities offered.

A diverse and inclusive community

MLC School is a school in the Uniting Church of Australia and our community of students is sympathetic to the School's Christian ethos. We are also a multi-faith community rich in cultural and spiritual diversity.

There are many aspects taken into consideration when offering a
place at MLC School. The date of application is only one of these.

Welcome to the family

Orientation for new parents who will be joining the MLC family is an important part of the Enrolment process. It is great opportunity to get together with members of staff and other members of the MLC community such as representatives from the P & F, the MLC Parents Club, the MLC Auxiliary, the Canteen Staff and the MLC Community Relations team to share information and provide the opportunity for parents to start making connections within the school.

Ready, Set, Learn Program

A workshop to help you prepare your child for starting school and learning to read.

MLC School offers the Ready, Set, Learn program for children and their families about to commence school in the following year. It is open to all families, not just those with children starting at MLC School.

It is a program that focuses on the skills involved in learning to read, and explores ways in which you can help your child to build these skills at home, through a range of easy, enjoyable activities. Activities involving listening for rhyme, rhythm and specific sounds can be extremely effective in developing a child's phonemic awareness.

The next Ready, Set, Learn Workshop will be held at MLC School in 2008.
