Alumnae

Alumnae

A global community of over 25,000

MLC graduates can be found all over Australia and the world, yet they retain a strong sense of pride, belonging, and gratitude for the College.  

 
We are incredibly proud of our global community of Old Collegians who represent a diverse range of experiences and pursuits, whether it be building their chosen career, volunteering to benefit a cause, or dedicating their time to raising and influencing the next generation. 

Their shared MLC experience creates an enduring sense of belonging, well beyond the day each alumna walked through the Krome Gates for the last time.  At MLC we are committed to deepening the connections they share with each other and the College. 

The MLC Alumnae Engagement team and the Old Collegians’ Club collaborate to offer a varied range of events and programs that provide opportunities for Alumnae to connect and reminisce, forming a lasting and supportive network that extends across generations.

Staying Connected

Every year we have a busy schedule of events. Please check the calendar below. We look forward to seeing you at an upcoming event soon.
