W elcome to the Brisbane Girls Grammar School 2019 School Magazine . What a year it has been! Each page of this year’s magazine provides an insight into the vibrant and exciting culture of Girls Grammar, from academic achievements to the School’s comprehensive co-curricular offerings, this publication celebrates the diversity of our school. Each term has brought new opportunities, experiences and memories, all of which have enabled the Girls Grammar community to develop and thrive. In 2019, the Publications Committee has endeavoured to embrace and integrate the Student Council’s motto: ‘Our Spirit is True, Our Heart is Blue’. It has been incredible to witness the powerful effect of this year’s motto in unifying us as Grammar sisters.The motto—proudly featured on the cover—established a clear direction for

the 2019 magazine and inspired the committee to take advantage of visual presentations and new design concepts. We hope that as you read this magazine, our design concept excites and surprises you. At Girls Grammar, curiosity and creativity flourishes. From music to service, sport to debating and science to drama, the culture at our school is rich, bursting with diversity and enthusiasm. The talent, dedication and passion demonstrated by each Grammar girl must be celebrated. To capture the many successes of 2019 in just one magazine would be impossible, but with the combined effort of students and staff, the Publications Committee has provided a snapshot into the extraordinary life of a Grammar girl.
