Chelsea Experience – An Unforgettable Experience for MLC School Footballers
What an incredible week for our MLC School Footballers!
MLC School students were given the amazing opportunity to experience Chelsea FC Women up close, attending an open training session Tuesday night before watching the Chelsea stars take on the A-League Women All Stars Wednesday night at Allianz Stadium Moore Park.
Thanks to the generosity of Ellie Carpenter and the Chelsea FC Women management team, our students were given incredible access to some of the world’s leading female footballers. From watching the team train to meeting the players and experiencing the excitement of match day, it was a fantastic opportunity for our young footballers to see what is possible at the highest level of the game.
A special thank you to Ellie, and the entire Chelsea FC Women squad for making our MLC School Footballers feel so welcome and creating memories they will not forget.
Opportunities like this are incredibly valuable for our students, providing inspiration and allowing them to connect with athletes who are performing at the very highest level of women’s football.
We are incredibly grateful to Ellie and the Chelsea FC management team for making this experience possible for our students.
A truly unforgettable Chelsea FC experience for MLC School Football!

Diving
MLC School Diving Club Shines at Diving NSW 1st Interclub
On Sunday 9 August 2026, MLC School Diving Club athletes competed at the Diving NSW 1st Interclub, held at Sydney Olympic Park Aquatic Centre.
The competition marked an exciting milestone for the club, which was officially established in early June this year. Six MLC School divers competed across four events, delivering an outstanding set of results with four first-place finishes, as well as a clean sweep of first, second and third place in one event.
The individual results were:
- Camilla Hutchison (Year 2) – 1st, Pathways Girls Level 3
- Grace Luo (Year 4) – 1st, Pathways Girls Level 4
- Charlotte Auty (Year 8) – 2nd, Pathways Girls Level 4
- Georgia Chiang (Year 8) – 3rd, Pathways Girls Level 4
- Imogen Halkon (Year 7) – 1st, Pathways Girls Level 5
- Ada Savage (Year 10) – 1st, 16/18 Girls Platform
For a club that has been operating for only a little over two months, the results are a very encouraging start and reflect the hard work and commitment shown by the athletes in training.
Since its establishment in early June, MLC School Diving Club has grown quickly, with more than 40 registered club members. Together with students participating in MLC Co-Curricular Diving programs and other athletes training with the program, more than 60 divers are now involved across the wider MLC diving pathway.
This growth would not have been possible without the strong support of MLC School, as well as the trust and encouragement of our athletes, families and wider community.
The club looks forward to continuing to build its diving program and providing more opportunities for young athletes to develop their skills, gain competition experience and enjoy the sport of diving.
Following the success of the 1st Interclub, MLC School Diving Club is now looking ahead to the next Diving NSW competition in September and hopes to see even more athletes representing the club.
Congratulations to all athletes on a fantastic competition and an excellent start for MLC School Diving Club.
