YEAR 7 PREFECT This year I was able to be a Year 7 Griffith Prefect along with Carmen Zhu. This role is extremely important in welcoming these younger students into the sisterhood and helping them become true Grammar girls. Together, we visit our students twice a week and do all-inclusive activities to help improve class cohesion and spirit; these include outdoor games and quizzes. The role of being prefect has allowed us to bond with all the girls and form many close friendships. It has been an extremely memorable experience and one I will treasure for many years to come.

YEAR 8 PREFECT Being a prefect this year has been an incredibly rewarding experience. By organising activities such as dodge ball with other houses, fun quizzes and games throughout the year, we have been able to form relationships with each of the girls individually and as a group. Before stepping into the role neither of us expected to form such strong bonds with each of the girls, however visiting them weekly as well as seeing them around school has allowed for this to happen. As we now leave Girls Grammar, at the end of Year 12, both of us feel that the prefect experience has allowed us to grow, and at the same time, we have watched Year 8s grow as Grammar girls.

YEAR 9 PREFECT Being a Year 9 prefect has been one of my favourite highlights this year. My mornings have never failed to be anything but exciting and memorable with a fun, positive and friendly feeling. I cannot express how much of a rewarding experience it was this year to be with an enthusiastic and supportive Year 9 class. The experience has made me become a more positive person and given me lifelong skills that I hope to use post-graduation. I will never forget the experience of connecting and forming friendships with girls from other year levels.
