On this very site, amidst the tranquil surroundings, stands Mooroolbark College. Mooroolbark College is no ordinary school. Founded in 1973, it has been shaping young minds and nurturing their potential for decades. Mooroolbark College prides itself on its house system, a system designed to foster a sense of community and encourage healthy competition. The four houses, each represented by a colour and a mascot – Red Devils, Blue Thunder, Green Machine, and Yellow Stingers – bring a vibrant energy to the school. Imagine the roar of the crowd during inter-house sporting events as students fiercely compete for honour and glory. But Mooroolbark College is more than just competition. It’s a place where every student is encouraged to discover their passion, whether it’s in academics, sports, the arts, or community service. The school motto, ‘A place to inspire discovery, to value and to seize opportunity,’ is woven into the fabric of the school. It’s a reminder that Mooroolbark College is not just a place of learning, but a launchpad for young minds to soar to new heights.
