Founders' Day 2023

Founders’ Day is a flagship reunion for Canberra Girls Grammar School’s alumni and is held in early May to commemorate the work done by the School Founders in bringing education to Canberra.

As CGGS Alumni, we would like to invite you to celebrate this day with us by coming together with our School community, beginning with a breakfast in the Boarding House, then a blessing by School Chaplain Father Chris Lewis, and finally a presentation of badges to our 50, 60 and 70-year alumni.

Tours of the Senior School will take place from 11.00am, where you will be able to see first-hand the many changes that have occurred since you were last on campus.
