School Life

Encouraging girls to shine in an inclusive and supportive environment.

A sisterhood

The QMC experience is underlined by a strong connection between students, staff and the wider school community. Whether that connection is found inside or outside the classroom, through mentorship or friendship, we pride ourselves on creating a nurturing environment where each individual is valued and heard.

Houses

We have a long and celebrated history of friendly competition between our five school Houses. Each girl belongs to a House and joins a community of students, teachers and Old Girls.

In the community

Throughout their time at school, students engage in community service and self-driven projects. This fosters a greater connection between learning and the real world, as well as compassion, responsiveness and responsibility for others in our community.
