Classes were first commenced in February 1908 with 31 day girls and 23 boarders. The early traditions of the College were established by Maud Connell, Head Mistress from 1908 to 1913, who chose the colours of green and gold, and the school motto ''Per Ardua Ad Alta'', which may be translated from Latin as "Strive for the Highest". In 1917, MLC's first university students graduated from the University of Western Australia, which had begun teaching in 1913.〔(MLC 100- Timeline ) (accessed:27-05-2007)〕 MLC became a school of the Uniting Church in Australia in the 1970s, as the Methodist, Presbyterian and Congregational Churches came together to form the Uniting Church. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Methodist Ladies' College, Perth」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
