College Houses

College Houses

At Mount Eliza Secondary College, we have 4 houses which are named after Aboriginal words that represent features of the beautiful landscape that our school is situated in. The logos for each house were designed by one of our past students.

Manyung

The red house is called Manyung (Manyong). This is a combination of the first and last syllables of the names of nearby creeks, Manmangur and Gunyong Creeks.
Kirrang

Our yellow house is Kirrang which is a name for wattle trees and represents the colour of the wattle flower. We take pride in the native landscape our school is situated in, with indigenous gardens planted by students, and areas that include wattle trees.
Warringa

Blue house is Warringa meaning the sea. As Peninsula kids, many of our students feel connected to the sea where they enjoy their spare time. The beach is a short drive away from our school site at the end of Canadian Bay Rd.
Kimmuli

Green house is called Kimmuli and is a name for the paper bark tree or Tea Tree. The Tea Tree is an iconic coastal vegetation and a defining feature of the Mornington Peninsula.

 

Why MESC

We want students to grow into their identities and become the best versions of themselves.

We display confidence, energy and fresh thinking, sharing our passion for our subjects.

We provide a stimulating school environment where students can learn, live, love and grow.

My sons are valued and respected at Mount Eliza Secondary College. My sons' educational experience of engaging learning at the college is exemplary, which encourages them to academically grow, while ensuring that their secondary school education is top class.

Parent

We have been parents of MESC for over 20 years. Our youngest (and sixth) child is in year 10 this year. That alone tells you how highly we regard the school, its community and its policies. We have seen many changes at the school over the past 20 years, but the one constant is the standard of excellence MESC offers and expects in both education and wellbeing.
