International Women's Day Lunch 2024

You are warmly invited to join us at the MGGS International Women' Day Lunch. On this day each year, we gather to celebrate and honour the generations of women who have passed through the School; bold and courageous leaders of change who challenge the status quo and set a fine example for our Grammarians. 

This year's lunch will feature Emily Hensley Award Winner Ginger Ridgeway (2006) as the guest speaker. In the spirit of celebration, we encourage you to invite someone who you think represents this year's theme - including family, friends and colleagues outside of the MGGS community.

How will you #InvestInWomen to ensure that no one is left behind?
