BI-GRAMMAR

B i-Grammar is a series of events organised by Brisbane Girls Grammar School and Brisbane Grammar School (BGS) Student Councils. This year, we decided to take a new approach, running a mixed-team trivia night. The decision to introduce teams of 10 (five girls and five boys) aligned with our ambition to unite the cohorts and build stronger, lifelong bonds within the Grammar community.

The trivia night was held at Girls Grammar and began with an ice-breaker activity of brainstorming a team name. The evening was led by two student MCs who constructed 10 trivia questions related to six different categories. The trivia night was tremendously enjoyable and successful in strengthening relationships with our peers at BGS. Eliza Douglas (12H)
