Goals 4 Girls
Goals 4 Girls (G4G’s) focuses on empowerment through personal development, the Arts, recreational pursuits and community partnerships. Students will engage in a diverse range of learning opportunities that will equip them to make socially responsible decisions to enhance the quality and potential of their own, and other people’s lives.
In developing these skills, students will set and achieve personal goals and learn to manage their own mental health and well-being to help them cope with change and conflict.
