BI-GRAMMAR The Bi-Grammar rivalry was in full swing this year, with Year 12 students from Brisbane Grammar School and Brisbane Girls Grammar School battling it out for the coveted spoils of interschool competition—bragging rights. Organised by student committees from both schools, Bi-Grammar this year comprised three rounds with four keystone events: touch football; battle of the bands; trivia; and netball. With school war cries and sausage sizzles accompanying the fierce and dedicated competition, Bi-Grammar provides Year 12 students the opportunity to connect with each other and form friendships that cross the border of Kalinga Avenue. Whilst each event aimed to celebrate the excellence of our greatest athletes, musicians, and minds, Bi-Grammar places participation and enthusiasm above all else, allowing Year 12 students to enjoy their last year of School by displaying their School spirit through healthy competition.

GALENTINE'S DAY

Galentine's Day is a wonderful, inclusive day for every Grammar Girl to celebrate; a day of spreading love, showing love, and celebrating sisterhood. This year we sang our hearts out and danced ‘till we dropped at the spectacular dance party on the Teal Floor—all decked out in spectacular pink and red ensembles, of course. Years 11 and 12 decorated their tables, merging celebration with eco-friendliness in their battle to be awarded ‘Best Decorated' and 'Most Sustainable'.

Galentine's Day is also about our bonds beyond our immediate friendship group, with Year 12s spending time with their Year 7 buddies, and all of us telling our teachers just how much we appreciate them. But our love and generosity weren't only shared within the BGGS sisterhood. Thanks to Second Chance's delicious bake stall and the House Service Captains’ spider stall, we were able to share the love beyond the white picket fence with those in need. This year, the love at Galentine's Day was off the c-hearts! Vicki Chuang (12E)
