In a relatively short period, participation across MLC School diving has grown to close to 100 enrolments, and the program continues to expand.
MLC School, Head of Diving Shixin (Golden), is very pleased with the progress so far, and hopes to continue to introduce more students to diving and further develop the MLC School Diving pathway. As an Olympian, Golden brings a wealth of experience and inspiration to the program, helping students see what can be achieved through perseverance and a love of the sport.
