Happy Flashback Friday!
The Tuck Shop, from 1929 to 2024. It may have changed over the decades, but everyone had their go-to (the tea cake will always be iconic 🤤). What was yours?

📣 What are the benefits of participation?

🤝 Are you young and yearning for insights and inspiration to fuel your personal and professional growth?

🤝 Are you a little older and a whole lot wiser, and keen to share your experiences and learnings with others?

👭 The exchange of skills, knowledge and insights helps both mentees and mentors in their own development and contributes to the growth and success of their partner.

It’s a special milestone when school friends from more than 60 years ago gather for their diamond reunion celebration. The friendships that bind the Class of 1966 remain wonderfully strong.
Stories shared on the day sparked plenty of laughter, big smiles, and the rekindling of long ago memories.
Thank you, Class of 1966, for returning to MLC and celebrating your connection to each other and to the College. ✨

Sunday Spotlight - Tiddeman House 🏫

It’s no surprise that Tiddeman House is MLCs oldest building. But did you know that when MLC opened in February 1882 – it was only half finished?! It wasn’t until 1885 that the Tower and east-wing of the building were completed. The lower portion of the east-wing, known as The Residence, was the home to all MLCs Principals up until 2004. The name Tiddeman House also didn’t come around until 1992. Before then, this building has been known as both Main Building and the Boarding House.

Tiddeman House is one of the finest examples of the Academic Gothic architectural styles in Melbourne. It has many decorative elements that have symbolic meanings (lilies for purity, oak leaves for longevity, sunflowers for happiness and doves for peace). These features were intentionally chosen by founding Principal, Rev Dr William H Fitchett, as he wanted the building to both impress but all feel like a “grand home”, especially for the boarders. ✨
