Student Participation To be fully immersed in MLC School's dynamic learning environment, we encourage all girls to participate in at least one co-curricular program each school year. Though participation is voluntary, when girls chose to enrol, or are selected for a specialty program, they are expected to honour and fulfil the commitment they have made in order to nurture a sense of responsibility in themselves. We do not restrict the number of activities that girls can be involved in, as each girl is an individual and will manage their studies, deal with stress and time management in their own way. Students are not able to sign up for two or more MLC School co-curricular activities that run concurrently. Though in the past program coordinators have made every effort to accommodate those students wanting to be involved in concurrent activities by letting them finish one activity early to start the next one late, this practice has become unsustainable, with neither activity being enjoyed to its fullest. As a School we have made every effort to effectively timetable our program to minimise clashes between programs and evenly distribute them across the week. However, running a large-scale operation such as ours, clashes are inevitable. We ask that families carefully plan which activities they would like to participate in and ensure they can fulfil the required commitment. If an activity or event clashes with another, be prepared to select the one you wish to be involved with for that year. A reminder to students who undertake private music tuition at MLC School: It is a compulsory requirement of the program that you participate in at least ONE of the School’s ensembles each academic year.
