At MLC, we recognise the importance of educating our young people for life in a global village where international understanding is a key skill.

To achieve this, MLC staff and students are forging links with a wide range of people, groups and organisations from different countries and cultures.  At the classroom level, teachers are developing an internationally-minded perspective in students by giving them the tools to compare different events and issues in the past, present and future across countries.  What we hope to achieve is an understanding that there are many ways of looking at people, history and issues and that environment colours our perception.

"At MLC, we reinforce and support the values and messages of being internationally-minded in every aspect of day to day school life, from the classroom, to the playground, to the library, and back home to friends and families.  Through activities such as cultural exchanges for teachers and students, our Ngukurr/Arnhem Land exchange program, professional development for staff, our membership of The Global Compact, our International Students' Club and student discussion forums, we are actively experiencing, supporting, valuing and celebrating diversity in our community, not just talking about it!"
