The Grammar Women—Grammar Girls Mentoring Program is a new initiative that seeks to strengthen connections between current students and alumnae in a meaningful and rewarding way.
We are looking for volunteer peer mentors to guide and support Year 11 students to establish and attain their academic, personal or other goals. The School will match a small group of current students (2-3 per group) with a suitable alumna peer mentor, based on shared interests and experience.
Attend four 90-minute meetings across the year. Attendance will be required at all four meetings. Meetings will be organised and facilitated by Brisbane Girls Grammar School staff and Program Coordinators, Ms Ruth Jans and Ms Antonia Swindells.
Peer mentoring allows you to share your experience and knowledge with current students, while further developing your own communication and leadership skills. Participation in this program is a wonderful way to contribute to BGGS and to the next generation of Grammar Women.
Mentors should be:
