As the Year 7-9 Advisor, I am privileged to witness the formative years of our students. Beyond academic growth, these years are about self-discovery and building resilience. Challenges and joys intertwine, offering invaluable life lessons that extend far beyond the classroom. BGGS offers several initiatives throughout the academic year, which many of our new Year 7 students and their families look forward to as opportunities to connect to each other and the School: • Term 1: New Parent Welcome Reception, Year 7 Parent Information Evening, House Parties, Wednesday Play at Lunch Activity led by Year 12 buddies, Galentine’s Day Celebrations, Interhouse Swimming Carnival, Blue Day Celebrations, Study buddies, Shake and Stir theatre performance, 50‑day celebration, and Interhouse Cross Country • Term 2: Grandparents and Friends Day, Friendship Dramas by guest presenter Bec Sparrow, Enlighten Education, Jump Rope for Heart, Father and Daughter Dinner • Term 3: BGS/BGGS Respectful Relationships afternoon, House Netball competitions, online safety presentation, and the Outdoor Education Program • Term 4: Friendship Dramas by guest presenter Rebecca Sparrow, and the Mother and Daughter Dinner. Together, as a supportive BGGS community, we celebrate the resilience and enthusiasm of our Year 7 students. We are confident that these young girls will thrive, learn, and make lasting memories in their journey through secondary school and look forward to a fantastic School year ahead!
