A number of recommendations for the future development of the jamming environment were openly and frankly addressed. As a result a number of changes were implemented both to educational offerings and facilities and the fo, ,Mahons established for what today would be considered a snaregfo plan for both short term and long-term planning. it resultsd in the development for example. of a number of new clussroom areas including three science laboratories, the opening of the Memorial Outdoor Eine@non Centre and cullimated with the opening of the Geh, man" near" and Gehmm, in Block in 1986 in 1989 the School community embraced a second Mastsr Plan which was released under the banner of Crunch Time.

The Chair of the Board of Trustses, Dr ChareU lint and the Principal,

Ms Iudith Hancock. in September invited each of the major School support goups to Bend two representatives to a dinner at the School during which they releared the latest Masta Plan, Ibw@, a, 2010. Since that time, the Principal has made a number of presentations to members of the goups including the Staff, Parents and Friends Executive and Fathers Group. By the end of the year Mrs Rancork anticipates having spoken to the vast majority of members of the reinaintng support goups and of coarse the girls of the School. Developed by John Dint"to". Architects, the plan reflects the ongoing committinent by consecutive Boards of Trustees to incremental change, which has been the hallmark of PInnning at BCGS for many years' it also reflects the architect's enthusiasm for the development of the site. which he considers, has peat potential as the San Giininano of Brisbane The first Mastsr Plan (although suchjargon did not exist at that time), was the result of a an School Evaluation in the period 1979

a rethink of both organisational and management sumctiires in schools.
