Mullauna College is a year 7 – 12, co-educational, state secondary school set in the heart of Mitcham in Melbourne’s leafy eastern suburbs.
Mullauna is a Koori word meaning together. Our motto, ‘Success Through Learning Together’, reflects our belief that excellence is best achieved when students, teachers and parents work in partnership to ensure the best possible outcomes and learning experiences for the students in our community.
We respect and acknowledge academic success. Our vision for our students is that they value learning and creativity, and constantly strive to achieve their personal best. We aim to have our students graduate with the knowledge, skills and confidence necessary to become independent learners who are capable of meeting the challenges of adult life in a global community.
Mullauna is an active learning community, providing students with a challenging curriculum designed to meet the needs of individual students. Our EXCEL High Achievers Program, English as an additional language courses, year 7 and 8 Challenge program and year 9 SkillZ Program are examples of targeting the learning experience to best meet the individual needs of our students. The college VET programs offer a breadth of pathways for seniors and our year 10 students are encouraged to undertake VCE subjects. Mullauna also delivers a well-regarded and successful International Student Program (CRICOS number 00861K).
Our students excel academically. In 2017 our year 12 students achieved excellent results with a VCE subject median score of 31 and 8.3% of Study Scores over 40. Over 11% of the cohort achieved an ATAR over 90, 21% of ATARs were above 85 and 50% of students achieved ATARs over 70. Amongst the cohort students achieved a perfect Study Score, the VCE Baccalaureate and a finalist for VCE Tops Arts. Each year, the majority of our year 12 graduates go on to university and other tertiary institutions.
Students also have the opportunity to participate in a diverse range of co-curricular activities, including student leadership, camps, debating and sports. They excel in both the visual and performing arts. For the last four years in succession, our students’ Studio Arts work was selected for exhibition in the VCE Season of Excellence at the National Gallery of Victoria, and our Stage Band has been very successful at the Victorian Schools’ Music Festival.
For students coming into Mullauna at year 7, our extensive transition program and close links with local primary schools to ensure a continuity of positive learning experiences and a smooth transition to secondary education.
The new building works have been completed, providing state of the art learning spaces for our current and future students, including a new visual arts and technology precinct, a makerspace facility and a new junior learning centre.
Mullauna is a quality government school where students can proudly achieve their personal best. We invite you to come on a tour of our college to meet our students and staff, and we look forward to welcoming your family into our learning community.
