From the Students: Educate and Empower—shining a light on what’s not discussed in class

Brisbane Girls Grammar School Season 4 Episode 5

In the critical developmental years of secondary school, students need safe spaces to explore and debate the important issues affecting their lives, identity, and understanding of the world. In this episode, Principal, Ms Jacinda Euler Welsh, sat down with three senior students—Sophie, Yasmin and Sophie—who have all participated in one such forum at Brisbane Girls Grammar School: the Educate and Empower group.

Listen to the students' conversation about the group's coverage of topics such as religion, identity, and how the School can encourage diverse student voices.
