This iteration launched in 2021, when we handed over the mic to the students of Girls Grammar to share their insights and views about topics most relevant to today’s adolescents. A chance for our students to speak directly to their classmates and the wider community, a variety of topical discussions have already been had, including our students' experience of remote learning, and a candid discussion about social media and the role that these platforms play in their daily lives.

Intended to directly address the concerns and challenges that parents in our community face, this series taps into the expertise of BGGS educators and healthcare professionals. Since launching in late 2021, the series has discussed strategies for managing stress and anxiety, explored how perceived ‘negative’ emotions such as anxiety and fear can be re-channelled for growth, and advised parents on how to help their daughters balance co-curricular activities with their academic studies, to ensure that they are getting the most out of their secondary school days, while not feeling overwhelmed.
