About school
Moreton Bay College is a Pre-Prep to Year 12 Uniting Church School for girls and consistently rates as one of Brisbane’s top performing schools. For 120 years, Moreton Bay College has encouraged girls to be the best they can be. Our supportive learning environment inspires inquiring minds, integrity, initiative and genuine caring. With a rich heritage, exceptional teachers, state-of-the-art facilities, an integrated pastoral care programme and extensive co-curricular opportunities, Moreton Bay College offers an outstanding student experience. The College aims to develop knowledgeable, confident, passionate and empathetic students with the skills to chase down their dreams and make a real difference in the world. The ‘College spirit’ is unmistakable to anyone who spends a few hours at the College. It’s not just about pride in the College but about a real sense of belonging, camaraderie and cooperation that is genuinely inclusive of girls from many different backgrounds and abilities. At MBC, each student is encouraged to achieve her personal best in all her pursuits. We see this in the academic outcomes of our graduates and through the leadership and inspiration they provided in the College’s broad and diverse co-curricular programme. Learning happens as much through everyday interactions as in the classroom. Teachers are energetic, positive role models and build strong connections with the girls, encouraging a warm atmosphere where laughter sits easily with respect. Mentoring is not just a function of teachers but is constantly demonstrated in the interactions of older girls helping younger girls and student teams cooperating on projects or everyday tasks. Whether girls are inside the College grounds or out in the community, their distinctive College spirit and natural friendliness shine through.
