I'd like to see a source that confirms the house Clarke was named after the Archbishop of Melbourne, Henry Lowther Clarke. My understanding was always that Clarke was named after Lady Janet Clarke (1851-1909) a significant benefactor to the school, a member of the first school council and a great supporter of women's education in Victoria.

School song edit

Perhaps someone can put some dates on the school song when I attended MCEGGS (1954-1958) "Except the Lord build the house" words (modified?) from the psalm, music by A.E.Floyd ? MargaretRDonald (talk) 23:58, 6 August 2018 (UTC)Reply
