Sunday Spotlight: Nicholas Wing 🏫

There is only one site on MLCs campus that has retained a similar footprint but has had two different buildings. Nicholas Wing (now the site of the Nicholas Learning Centre, 2019) was built in 1939 – by the Nicholas Brothers, George and Alfred.
What are your memories of the Nicholas Wing / Learning Centre?

✨Skye WeiHu (2016) & Madison Quinn
From MLC Kindergarten to London Housemates

Some connections are instant - even at three years old. 💚

Skye WeiHu and Madison Quinn first met in MLC’s Kindergarten, two tiny, energetic girls who quickly became inseparable. Though Madison later continued her schooling elsewhere, the friendship they formed in those early MLC days became the foundation of a lifelong bond that has spanned years, milestones, and continents.

“In our very first kinder class, I remember twirling around in mismatched socks,” Skye recalls. “We were inseparable from the beginning.”

Those early years were filled with paint-splattered art smocks, playground adventures, and sports day races that felt like the most important events in the world. One of their favourite memories is of oversized art classes, where they’d giggle through wild portraits of their families, paintbrushes in hand, laughter echoing louder than the bell.

As the years passed, their schools — and lives — took them in different directions. But the friendship that began at MLC never faded. Today, Skye and Madison share a place together in London, sharing a life still stitched with in-jokes, travel memories, and echoes of their MLC beginnings.

“MLC gave us more than an education — it gave us the foundation of a lifelong friendship,” says Skye. “No matter where we are, a part of that little kindergarten classroom comes with us.”

Old Collegians on the World Stage! 🇦🇺🤺

We’re celebrating two incredible MLC Old Collegians who recently represented Australia at the World Veteran’s Fencing Championships in Bahrain; Jane Allardice (1967) and Jenny Bonney-Millett (Bonney 1977).

Competing together in the Women's Foil event, Jane and Jenny took on a tough international field of veteran fencers from around the world. While the results weren’t what they’d hoped for, the experience was unforgettable.

As Jenny shared:
“It was a tough competition, and we didn't get the results we wanted, but it was fun and always great to represent Australia at these events, especially with a fellow Old Collegian!”

Congratulations, Jane and Jenny! What a fantastic achievement - and a wonderful reminder of the strength of our MLC community, no matter how many years have passed since school.

💚🤺 We’re so proud of you both!
