MLC Motto & Song
Our Motto
Our Motto: Per Ardua Ad Alta was chosen by Miss Maud Connell, Principal of the College from 1908 to 1913. It means Strive for the highest.
MLC Song
Come lift your loyal song
In a chorus of acclamation
Join as a joyful throng
In a paean of praise and devotion.
Ring through the lofty hall
By the graceful staircase winding,
A song which to one and all
At work or at play is binding.
Chorus
Per Ardua ad Alta,
Through trials to the height;
Per Ardua ad Alta,
Fight striving for the right.
Then up school, on school,
Loyal through every test.
Per Ardua ad Alta
Give to the world your best.
