The Am an I club of B. G. G. S. is the peace group within the school, whose focus this year has been aiding Amnesty international. Membership of this club is open 10 all year levels within the school community and despite our small numbers, we have had a very active year! I992 began with the awareness of Refugee Week. A guest speaker, Miss Suzanne CTegory. addressed the school on the topic o1 refugees and their struggle to re-establish themselves in their new homelands. The school coinmuni- Iy donated to this worthy cause, by Ineans of a collection held after heI' speech The major fundraiser for the Am an I club this year was the school's first ever "P I Day" (Pyjama Day) on which, for the small fee of one dollar, students were pennitted to wear their "PI's" at school! Teachers, too, were encouraged to participate; however, if they were not game enough 10 wear their pyjamas - Chicken Tickets for the price of two dollars were made available! This event raised a total of five hundred dollars in aid of Amnesty international. Other events on this year's Am an I calendar included Button Day, 11 cake drive and several other small fundraisers.
