What We Do
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 all experts in their field and are chosen on the basis of their understanding of our learning requirements.
We try to engage qualified and highly experienced lecturers who appreciate the difference between lecturing to tertiary students and delivering lectures to mature adults who are coming along by their own choice!

There are no examinations, no educational prerequisites, no set homework and no embarassing questions – just diverse and appealing lectures intended to interest and stimulate mature adults.
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!
Occasional dinners, tours and interesting outings may be organised for those who wish to participate.
Details of Perth and Peel Branch courses may be found by clicking on the appropriate link from the menu at the top of this page.
Programs at each branch run independently in terms of content, times and the fees charged, so consulting the relevant branch page is essential.
