From the Principal
One of the wonderful things about my role is the opportunity to meet our alumnae and hear about their remarkable and varied careers. Jocelyn Maughan OAM is one such Old Girl. She graduated from MLC School in 1955 and is a renowned artist, known for her exceptional skills in painting and drawing. Jocelyn painted the portrait of Rev Ken Cornwell, who was Principal from 1970 until 1989, during his time at MLC School, . This week I was honored to have had my first sitting with Jocelyn for a portrait that she is painting as a gift to the School. During this sitting, Jocelyn shared stories of her time at MLC School, her initial plan to become a motor mechanic and the journey to professional artist.
Jocelyn was a recipient of the 2020 Alumnae Award for Social Welfare and Impact and Professional Achievement; you can read more about her remarkable career and contribution to her community here.

The 2025 Alumnae Awards are now open for nominations, and I encourage you to nominate former students who deserve recognition for their achievements beyond School.
Congratulations to our rowers!
Our rowers and their supporters are living examples of how with commitment, perseverance, hard work and outstanding leadership, anything is possible. While our program is smaller than in many schools, under the leadership of Rob Glendenning, the program has grown steadily, and the skill of our rowers, has developed year on year. Their collective efforts were rewarded on the weekend at the IGSA Regatta at Sydney International Regatta Centre (SIRC) when the young rowers/scullers of MLC School Sydney won the trophy for the highest points per person out of 14 schools. In addition, Every MLC School crew member or single sculler gained a medal at this Regatta. Congratulations! See more about this exciting news here.
