Around the Grounds
Hockey
A great term for all our MLC School Hockey players! Some great wins, some close losses, and some nail-biting draws. Well done to MLC01, who competed well and finished strong with a 2-2 draw to Ascham in our debut S01 season to finish mid-table! MLC02 were unlucky to fall short of a grand final after some fantastic performances throughout the term to place 4th, next term I back us to go all the way! MLC03 had a great season in the Junior Leagues, ending up placing second after a smashing 7-0 win in their final game of the comp. We look forward to the Championship season next term, with MLC01 returning to S01 to show the rest of IGSA what we’ve got! Watch this space… Premiership wins inbound.
Congratulations also to our IPSHA girls. So many new faces (and new shin pads) to add to our hockey ranks. It was a joy to see you all out there working hard on Friday nights and Saturday mornings. The future of MLC School Hockey Club is in safe hands with you all. Sadly, it is just a one term comp, but we will be back better than ever next year to bring home some more wins!
Netball
Congratulations on a fantastic Term 2 IGSA Invitational Netball Season girls! Our MLC School Sports Department is ecstatic with our results and pure determination you have showed us this term.
A special congratulations to our IGSA Division Premiers! Our Senior 2nds (MLC02, Div S04) and Year 7A team (MLC09, Div Y702). Shout out to our Senior 3rds (MLC03) team who came a close runners up for their Division!
Our teams have displayed exceptional skills and you all have improved so much across the term! The coaches and I are very impressed with you all and so proud of how you represent MLC School Sport with pride, respect, and positivity!
We look forward to more amazing results for our Championship Term 3 of IGSA Netball!
Basketball
Well done to all our Basketball teams on a fantastic season. Your effort, teamwork, and commitment have been outstanding, and it’s been great to see the development of all teams throughout the year.
Thank you to all players, coaches, and supporters for making the season so enjoyable. We look forward to seeing you all back on the court next term.
Term 2 IGSA Football Wrap-Up
Term 2 has been a fantastic season for the Saturday morning IGSA Football program, with strong participation, impressive performances, and outstanding success across all three teams.
Our Senior team, MLC01, and Year 7 team, MLC03, both claimed their respective division titles, completing the season undefeated. MLC02 also enjoyed a stellar campaign, suffering just one narrow loss in Week 4 and finishing as runners-up in their division.
These results are a testament to the dedication, teamwork, and commitment shown by all players throughout the season. We are especially excited to announce that, for the first time, all three teams will continue into the Term 3 competition. With each team earning promotion to a higher division, there are exciting opportunities ahead as our players continue to challenge themselves and further develop their skills.
Congratulations to all players and coaches on an outstanding Term 2, and we look forward to seeing what can be achieved in Term 3.
Swimming
Congratulations to Madison Chantler (Year 11), who delivered an outstanding performance at the Metro Southeast Winter Short Course Championship over the weekend, earning the title of 16 Years Women’s Age Champion.
Madison achieved an impressive collection of results, including five gold medals. A testament to Madison’s hard work and dedication in the pool. Well done!
Fencing – MLC School Fencers Achieve Podium Finish at NSW School Épée League
MLC School’s fencing program celebrated an outstanding result at the NSW School Épée League Teams Event last weekend, with our girls who competed in the team épée event, securing a podium finish against strong competition. Orianna Ellis (Year 12), Yerina Kang (Year 11) and Claudia Pruscino (Year 8) performed exceptionally well, exceeding expectations with their determination, teamwork, and skill throughout the competition.
Special thanks go to Coach Angelo, who generously shared his coaching expertise and support, and to parent Michael Pruscino, who once again stepped in to assist the team on the day. Their guidance and commitment played an important role in the team’s success.
The girls will now turn their attention to the Schools’ National Fencing Championships, to be held on Saturday 18–Sunday 19 July 2026 in Melbourne at the Victorian Fencing Association. To support their preparation, an additional holiday training program is currently being organised.
Congratulations to Orianna, Yerina, and Claudia on this fantastic achievement. We wish them every success as they continue their preparations for the national championships.
Volleyball
Congratulations to our Monte Volleyballers who have played their socks off all term. A relentless Friday night schedule didn’t put you off your stride, and you made us proud. Thank you all for completing your duties without a complaint, the comp wouldn’t run without your efforts, so a big thank you from the MLC School Sports Staff.
Thank you also to our amazing parent group, offering lifts, showing support and being super awesome when we know Friday nights can be hectic. We will go quiet for a few weeks now and enjoy some well-earned Friday nights off, but we will be back again in Term 3 to go and smash it!
