You would be aware that Sydney is currently hosting the Invictus Games. This competition is an international sporting event for wounded, injured and ill veteran and active service personnel.
There is a MLMC connection, with Heidi Joosten (Class of 2003) taking part. Heidi won four gold medals in the Women’s IT7 in the 100m, 200m and 400m on the track as well as the long jump final. A couple of years ago Heidi attended our Night of Excellence and presented the Australian Defence Force awards to our students.
She was among the Invictus Games athletes who joined His Royal Highness The Duke of Sussex and Australian Prime Minister in climbing Sydney Harbour Bridge to raise the Invictus Games Sydney 2018 flag.
