BGGS Annual Review 2024

Philanthropy

The remarkable generosity and commitment of Brisbane Girls Grammar School’s community continues to shape the future of generations of Grammar girls. Since its founding in 1875, Brisbane Girls Grammar School has been dedicated to nurturing the intellectual, social, and emotional development of young women, equipping them with the knowledge and skills to confidently contribute to the world with wisdom, imagination, and integrity. The ongoing generosity and engagement of our alumnae, families, friends, and staff have been instrumental in the School’s legacy, empowering young women

through education and supporting our vision of exceptional scholarship and leadership. In 2024, the BGGS community’s extraordinary support was once again evident, highlighting the commitment to both current and future generations of Grammar girls. On the third annual Giving Day, generous donations—matched by the School—raised an impressive $544 401. These funds will support the greening of the Creative Learning Centre, the Junior School building, and the expansion of our bursary program. This collective generosity reflects the transformative power of a united

community, agile and supportive of new initiatives designed to strengthen the School’s foundation and reinforcing the delivery of an exceptional education for young women. A generous gift from Mrs Kay Bryan OAM, enabled the establishment of a perpetual bursary to be awarded annually

from 2025, as part of the School’s sesquicentenary celebrations. Mrs

Bryan’s enduring legacy will ensure future generations of young women benefit from the unparalleled opportunities provided by a Girls Grammar education.
