We’re wrapping up the year with a bang in MLC School sport! Last weekend was a showcase of our students’ incredible talent – our Rowing team shone in Melbourne, swimmers gave their all at SOPAC, gymnasts impressed at state competitions, divers celebrated their achievements at the Diving NSW presentation night, and our Junior School Basketball teams enjoyed their first wins of the season. The excitement on the sidelines from parents, students and coaches rivalled an NBA Final!

Scott and I are thrilled to keep this momentum rolling into 2026. Registrations for all co-curricular activities open on Monday 24 November 2025. Please note: Saturday sport registrations will be available for just one week due to upcoming grading sessions and team entries with external organisations. If your child already knows which sport they’d like to play, grading and trial sessions for teams will be held next week. Don’t worry if your daughter can’t attend these sessions – she’ll still be placed in a team and graded appropriately.

If you’re considering joining a sport in Term 1, now’s the perfect time to jump in! As an added bonus, every Junior School student in Year 3–Year 6 who signs up for IPSHA Football in Term 1 will receive a signed football from Matilda, Ellie Carpenter. Plus, every student who registers for a Term 1 sport will go into the draw to win a signed Ellie Carpenter jersey!
