About Marjorie Milner College
Marjorie Milner College was founded by the late Marjorie Milner in 1946. Floristry courses were the first to be offered by the college and over the years has expanded to include Barbering Courses, Hairdressing Courses and Beauty Courses.
The nationally accredited scope of training for the College covers many facets of Hairdressing, Floristry and Beauty Therapy at the Melbourne Campus in Surrey Hills. The function of the College, which has not changed over the past 65 years, is to train students in the skills associated with the craft of their industry and to learn retail and selling skills.
The school originated in Bridge Road Richmond. The family ran Champagne Hairdressing Salon and Jocelyn Florist side by side and the School was located in the workroom area. In 1963 the School moved to Kew Junction.
It is the longest operating Floristry School in Australia and now functions as Marjorie Milner College with Hairdressing and Beauty Therapy Courses in Melbourne. Marjorie Milner College also delivers in Tasmania. Marjorie Milner’s husband, Russell, studied a hairdressing apprenticeship in South Yarra after his mother owned six hairdressing salons around the Brighton area.
