MALA is a uniquely WA community & non-profit organisation that is dedicated to providing high-quality and age-specific ongoing educational activities for the mature adult populations of Perth, Peel (Mandurah) & Rockingham.
MALA provides engaging programs on a wide tapestry of topics including aspects of history, literature, science, art, environmental issues, politics, culture, philosophy, languages, nature studies, religion, music, contemporary issues and more. Lecturers are experts in their field and are chosen on the basis of their understanding of our learning requirements. The many members represent a diverse spectrum of our community.
There are no examinations, no educational prerequisites, no set homework and no embarrassing questions – just interesting and stimulating lectures. You may enrol in any course that interests you, and no prior experience is needed nor expected. Laughter and enjoyment are part and parcel of the deal!
Occasionally dinners, tours and interesting outings may be organised for those who wish to participate.
In addition to regular semesters, Peel Mala have been presenting a Summer School at the Mandurah Performing Arts Centre now for many years, and it attracts an audience from far and wide. Many participants book accommodation for the week, thus extending the experience and adding to the economy of the region.
The MALA Summer School for 2021 will be held at the Mandurah Performing Arts Centre 11 to 15 January 2021.
