An exciting opportunity has become available for a creative and passionate Admin Assistant to join our Arts Department from 2024. THE COLLEGE Moreton Bay College was established in 1901 as a school for girls from PP-12 and now supports an enrolment in excess of 1100 students. With a focus on academic excellence, underpinned by a rich and caring pastoral programme, MBC is the educational foundation for building perseverance, discovering courage and exploring creativity. With over 40 co-curricular activities to choose from, MBC stretches beyond the classroom and offers girls the chance to explore their identities, while harnessing success. With over 120 years of history, the College is well established with extensive libraries, sports, a state-of-the-art music and performance centre, an Olympic sized swimming pool and a chapel.
