The Thriving Girls Program, delivered by Girl Guides Victoria, is designed to support young women in developing healthy peer relationships, a strong sense of self-identity, and intercultural understanding. The program aims to build participants’ aspirations, strengthen their sense of belonging in the world, and increase their confidence to engage positively with those around them. On 16 September, facilitators from Girl Guides Victoria will deliver a full-day workshop for all Year 9 female and non-binary students. The program will incorporate interactive discussions, practical activities, and movement-based learning experiences. Key focus areas include:
The program provides students with an opportunity to strengthen their social and emotional skills in a supportive and engaging environment. Male students will be participating in The Man Cave – Level 1 at this time. |
Girl Guides Victoria (GGV) offers a space for each and every girl to develop their fullest potential. Girl Guides provides a participant responsive experience which fosters key life and learning skills. Research has demonstrated that girls are especially vulnerable to marginalisation and the concerning impact that this has on aspiration, sense of belonging and place in the world. GGV has identified that some girls experience greater barriers and disadvantage to fulfilling their potential in life and study. By participating in the Thriving Girls Program we hope to reduce many of the barriers our Year 9 girls may face. |
