Curriculum
MLC offers one of the broadest curricula in Australia. In Years 11 and 12, students choose between three distinct learning pathways - the International Baccalaureate (IB), VCE and Vocational Education and Training (VET). Almost 40 different subjects are offered from science, maths, humanities, languages (French, German, Japanese, Indonesian, Chinese, Auslan) arts, music, drama and technology, to VET subjects like hospitality, multi-media, information technology and sports and recreation.

Co-curriculum
MLC offers an enormous range of extra activities and clubs for students to pursue their interests and take on leadership opportunities. There are also outstanding opportunities for music tuition, bands, orchestras, choirs and performances, school camps and Duke of Edinburgh.

Academic performance
Our results in 2001 were outstanding: 47% of students achieved an ENTER over 90 and 92% of IB students achieved an ENTER over 90.Two students achieved perfect scores of 99.95. MLC’s aim is to give every student the care needed to achieve her best possible, ENTER, whatever her ability, and to find a tertiary program that matches her skills and interests.

The Magic of Marshmead
Ask any new Year 7 student why they chose MLC and they'll always mention Marshmead, MLC's remote facility near Mallacoota. Here in the beautiful Croajingolong National Park, Year 9 students live in households of eight for a term, gain a strong sense of independence and responsibility, practise problem solving and communication skills they’ll need through life, and study their environment and renewable energy. What an experience!

Student care
Student care is a top priority at MLC and our well-planned four schools structure means that every student is known, cared for and valued. MLC has one of the strongest special education support networks in Australia to help every student achieve her personal best. Care begins with a Home Group teacher, and extends to level co-ordinators, student counsellors, careers counsellors, chaplains, deafness integration aides, ESL teachers, subject and co-curricular teachers.
