PRINCIPAL’S
Perspective
At GGS, our focus – every day, week, month and year – is to inspire all who comprise our living and learning community with the mindset and competencies to flourish. We do this by enabling a holistic education, which prioritises learning and academic skills, as well as the values of compassion, curiosity, creativity, leadership, authenticity and perseverance. We are committed to encouraging young people to be deeply well and purposeful in their life, so that in their wellness and their purpose they create a positive difference, not just for themselves, but for others.
“We want our learners to feel a genuine sense of belonging and a confidence to open their hearts and minds to the myriad of opportunities available.”
warmth and a sense of excitement that we are embarking upon a great adventure together. Pivotal to this adventure are our next steps in the evolution of Creative Education. Through this lens we are focusing on developing in our students the values, attitudes and skills required to flourish in a rapidly changing world. While knowledge will continue to be important, our students will also be taught explicitly how to cultivate competencies associated with collaboration, critical thinking and problem solving; such cultivation is necessary to adapt and thrive. We look forward to the Foundation continuing to advocate this new strategic direction. I would like to thank the Foundation for their strategic vision and their welcome, particularly Foundation Chair, Penny McBain, and members of the Foundation Board. I thank them, and Stephen Meek, for their philanthropic endeavours in 2017 and congratulate them on all they have achieved to support our School. I would also like to applaud our Advancement Team, led ardently by Jo Nitz. Their efforts to renew and revitalise Grammar’s philanthropic culture are commendable. The Geelong Grammar Foundation plays a vital role in gifting our students the possibilities to find the best within themselves and all that they encounter. I look forward to working closely with the Foundation as we build on the strengths of the past and together, plan ambitiously for our future. Yours purposefully and optimistically, Rebecca Cody Principal
The Geelong Grammar Foundation models and empowers this approach to learning through its magnanimous support of scholarships, Positive Education and other projects that enhance our students’ experiences. We want our learners to feel a genuine sense of belonging and a confidence to open their hearts and minds to the myriad of opportunities available. It is with a heartfelt sense of gratitude that I thank all whose efforts and donations allow the School to provide these opportunities. In my relatively short time at the School, I have often felt overcome by the bounteousness of this extraordinarily welcoming community. At each campus, at Old Geelong Grammarian and community events, people have extended

FROM THE PRINCIPAL
I
t is my pleasure to thank you for your generosity and your belief in future generations of Geelong Grammar School (GGS) students. Our students today are supported in their access to an exceptional education because of the leadership and philanthropy of the Geelong Grammar Foundation and its members.
O From the CHAIR
ur Foundation is flourishing. The corpus at 31 December 2017 stood at $51.3 million, up from $43.8 million at the end of 2016. Total investment income for the year was just under $5 million, well up on the previous two years, and fundraising income for the year was just under $6.3 million, including $3 million into the Building Fund for the Toorak Wellbeing Centre. The Scholarship Fund stood at $26 million (including $4.4 million transferred from the J.R. Darling Memorial Fund, which was wound up in 2017), and the Endowment Trust at $25 million (up from $19.3 million and $20.3 million in 2016 respectively). The ongoing priorities of the Foundation continue to be Scholarships, Bequests, Positive Education, Annual Giving, and any other project endorsed by the School Council. Our new Director of Advancement, Jo Nitz, joined Geelong Grammar School in July 2017 and has, in a relatively short time, taken huge steps to revitalize our fundraising efforts and rebuild confidence in our fundraising team.
coalface, welcoming new members in 2017. The total number of notified bequests at the end of 2017 is 181 (up from 146 in 2016 and 108 in 2015). Over $2 million was received in bequests in 2017. I believe that bequests will become ever more important in providing support for the School, and urge all members of our community to consider the possibility of providing a Bequest in their Will to the Foundation, as so many of us have already done. 2017 saw the completion of the Toorak Wellbeing Centre, which was formally opened in November, and I would like to thank Foundation Board member Susannah Calvert-Jones and her committee for their enormous contributions to the fundraising effort for this wonderful building. In recent years the Handbury Centre for Wellbeing, the David William Robert Knox Equestrian Centre, the School for Performing Arts and Creative Education (the SPACE), the Positive Education programme, the Mechai Viravaidya Centre for academic support and the diversity provided by scholarships have all enriched the life of the School community. It is your gifts that have helped make the School the wonderful institution it is today. The Foundation has 942 members, as of the end of 2017, and I acknowledge with gratitude the generosity and commitment of all our volunteers and every member of the Foundation. Annual Giving raised nearly $200,000 in 2017 under the leadership of Donald Robertson. The importance of your gifts, great and small, to all the projects that we support, cannot be overestimated. So much of what we see and which our students enjoy at the School would simply not exist without the generosity of past and current benefactors.
“I am always inspired by the generosity and commitment of our community, and your willingness to ‘put something back in’ to the institution.”
The Scholarships Committee has been led and inspired by John Simson (Cu’74) for the past nine years. I record our grateful thanks to him for his drive, passion and the wonderful results that he and the committee have achieved. I am delighted that new Foundation Board member Charles Henry (FB’67) has agreed to Chair the Scholarships Committee and I look forward to seeing the wonderful work of this committee continue under his leadership. Currently nearly 25% of children at the School receive some form of financial assistance. I believe that there are few more worthy causes for us, as members of the Foundation, than providing access to the life-changing opportunity of a Geelong Grammar School education to a diverse range of students. I thank again all those whose efforts and donations allow the School to provide these opportunities. The Biddlecombe Society continues to flourish under the patronage of Michael Collins Persse, led by Neil Robertson (FB’72) and with Garry Pierson at the 4
I am always inspired by the generosity and commitment of our community, and your willingness to “put something back in” to the institution which has meant so much to you and your families. It is this remarkable and enduring generosity for which I thank you now. Long may it continue. Thank you very much.

ohn Sevior (P’79) and wife Rebecca, children Marcus (P’12) and Ella established the Sevior Family Scholarship in 2013. Eja Collins (Yr10 Ga) joined the School in Year 7 from the small country town of Alexandra in the Goulburn Valley as the inaugural Sevior Family Scholarship recipient. After exchanging letters for the past few years, John and Eja recently met face-to-face for the first time.
John Sevior (P’79): Corio was like a second home for me and I’ve got such fond memories of the place. As I tell my wife, I get a bit teary when I drive in and a bit teary when I leave. We are both big believers in the power of education and big believers in Geelong Grammar, so it was logical to put those two together. We believe in the power of education to affect change and broaden horizons and what that enables you to do in life. There are obvious tiers of education and Geelong Grammar is a world class school. Not everyone can afford to come here. In fact, very few people can afford to come here. So it’s very important that the School has kids from as broad a range of backgrounds as possible. It is a tremendously rewarding experience. It is even more rewarding to see someone actually grasp the opportunity like Eja has. She seems like a gem of a kid, so there’s great material to work with, and hopefully the School can help her to grow. My sense is that she’s jumped at every opportunity with relish, and you really can’t ask for more than that. Believing in the power of education, believing in Geelong Grammar’s ability to provide a great version of education, and being able to give people the chance to come here to experience that – it is a win for everyone. There are lots of things you can do with your money, but this is a great thing.
“We play a small role in enabling kids to come to the School and we’re happy to give someone that opportunity.”
Eja Collins (Yr10 Ga): I live in a town called Alexandra, which is a small, rural town. I started boarding at Geelong Grammar School in Year 7. I would’ve gone to Alexandra Secondary College, which is quite a small school, and comparing the two schools and the experiences is something I think about a lot. I am so grateful for all of the opportunities that I have here (at GGS) and all the people that I have met. As a 12-year-old leaving home to go to boarding school, it was a bit scary, but I have never second guessed my opportunity to come here. It’s just been amazing. I think the best thing is the relationships that I have formed, not only with the girls in my House and my Unit and amongst my friends, but also with staff and teachers and other students. I’ve had the opportunity to meet so many different people from different places in the world and been introduced to so many different cultures and activities. It’s not an exclusive environment. Through sport, activities, camps, classes and particularly boarding, you have a chance to connect with different people in different situations. It has just increased the way I think about the world and my outlook on possibilities for the future. I’m planning to do the IB (International Baccalaureate) next year. I would never have had an opportunity like that in Alexandra. I love English and at the moment I’m doing Geography as an elective, studying the geographies of human wellbeing. I’d really like to do some humanitarian work when I leave school and get involved in global issues and charities that support less fortunate people across the world.

imbertop had a profound effect upon Molly Christensen (Yr10 Fr). The 15-year-old from Lara confessed that it was a challenging year, “but it also provided the best experiences of my life”. “I was able to tap into my true character strengths when things were hard, and I felt a real sense of accomplishment,” Molly said. “I think I’ll always have a true connection with Timbertop.” Ern Pope has witnessed the positive effects of Timbertop first-hand with his own children, Adam (FB’88) and Liz (Je’92). “Timbertop is incredible,” Ern said. “The impact on both our children – we had a different child from the one that went into Year 9 to the one that came out of Year 9. It is a year that develops students to become self-reliant, to be capable of making decisions and develop leadership skills.” So when Ern and Deidre Pope wanted to assist Indigenous children to reach their potential, partnering with Geelong Grammar School was a logical step. A former President and CEO of Nestle Purina for the AsiaPacific, Africa and Middle East region, Ern was impressed with the School’s blossoming Indigenous Scholarship Programme. “It seemed like a sensible, pragmatic approach that ensured the highest possible chance of success,” he said. From just one student in 2006, there are currently 30 Indigenous scholarship students enrolled at GGS. Selected as one of the first Education Provider schools for the Federal Government’s Indigenous Youth Leadership Programme (IYLP), the School has worked closely with the not-for-profit organisation Yalari to provide Indigenous children from around Australia the opportunity of an exceptional education. This has been possible through a variety of scholarships, including the Pope Family Indigenous Scholarship, which Ern and Deidre established in 2014. Molly Christensen was the inaugural recipient of a Pope Family Indigenous Scholarship. She and twin sister Olivia joined the School in Year 7 in 2015, following in the footsteps of brother Aaron (Fr’13). “I am so grateful for the opportunity to attend GGS,” Molly said. “I don’t take it for granted and I hope other people like me get to experience this as well. It is amazing. It has helped me be my best possible self.”
“We know the well-rounded education that Geelong (Grammar School) can provide to children and we’ve learnt how well the School supports Indigenous students.”
Ern and Deidre Pope are pleased that they are in a position to make a difference to the lives of young Indigenous Australians like Molly. “We know the well-rounded education that Geelong (Grammar School) can provide to children and we’ve learnt how well the School supports Indigenous students,” Ern said. “The success that the School has been having has just encouraged us more and more to continue to support and actually build the Pope Family Indigenous Scholarship. I do get the sense that it is making a difference.”

atilda Maynard (EM’13) was desperate to attend Geelong Grammar School.
“I just remember applying for scholarship after scholarship, because I wasn’t in a position to attend GGS without one,” Matilda recalled. Thankfully for Matilda, and subsequently for her siblings Amelia (EM’15), Eliza (EM’17) and Tom (Yr9 Tt) who have gone on to attend the School, she received the Nicholas Pierce Scholarship and relocated from Hay in NSW to GGS for the start of Year 7. “I loved every minute of my time at the School, especially the boarding element,” Matilda said. “I developed that necessary independence quite quickly.”
“I wanted a School where I could keep busy, so I tried to get involved in as much as I could.”
Matilda immersed herself in School life, getting involved in the Cambodia Council, Debating and the Karen Babysitting Club, in addition to the usual sport (Hockey and Tennis) and music (Flute and Piano). “I wanted a School where I could keep busy, so I tried to get involved in as much as I could.”
Since graduating from GGS in 2013, Matilda has gone on to study Medicine at Monash University and will complete the final year of her degree in 2019 having deferred her studies in 2018. This year, as you would expect from someone who likes to keep busy, has been action-packed. Matilda spent a few months earlier this year volunteering at a hospital and local clinics in Vanuatu and has a short placement lined up with the Royal Flying Doctors Service in Western Australia, all while working at Cabrini Hospital in Malvern. Matilda loved her experience in Vanuatu, which reinforced her appreciation of just how lucky we are in Australia. “It was an eye opening experience as the resources and access to health care is extremely limited,” Matilda said. Matilda embodies the School’s spirit of making a positive difference; be it through volunteering her time and expertise for those less fortunate, or her work with WILDFIRE – Monash University’s Rural Health Club – through which she has been able to create awareness of the lack of access to health care people in rural areas have. The School’s Scholarship Programme gave Matilda the opportunity to realise her potential. “Thank you to the family of Nicholas Pierce for the opportunity you gave me.”

Tommy Garnett SCHOLARSHIP
A
s a high-profile Headmaster in the turbulent 1960s and early 1970s, English born Thomas ‘Tommy’ Garnett was a man in tune with the times. Whilst Headmaster at Geelong Grammar School from 1961-1973, Tommy took the School down a liberal path, most notably through the early steps towards co-education. In 1967, he approached the Geelong Church of England Girls’ Grammar School (The Hermitage) about sixth form girls taking Maths and Science classes at Corio. By the start of 1972, Tommy’s bold vision of co-education had formally begun, with 33 girls (including 15 boarders) enrolled in the two senior years at GGS. At his last Speech Day in 1973, Tommy announced that 70 girls were enrolled for 1974 – with others being turned away because the Senior School was full. The Tommy Garnett Scholarship is the Geelong Grammar Foundation’s way of thanking and acknowledging an influential leader in the history of the School, whilst ensuring his influence and impact continue to be felt in the way that mattered most to him — through the active support of students. Just as Tommy Garnett irrevocably changed Geelong Grammar School during his tenure as Headmaster, this scholarship will change the lives of young people and help them create their own exceptional futures. Fundraising efforts through 2017 culminated in the official launch of the Tommy Garnett Scholarship at the School of Performing Arts and Creative Education (the SPACE) in March 2018, hosted by Tim Murray AM (P’52) and incorporating the Corio launch of Andrew Lemon’s (FB’67) biography, The Master Gardener: T R Garnett of Marlborough College, Geelong Grammar School, The Age and The Garden of St Erth (Hardie Grant 2018). Thanks to the generous efforts of the GGS community, with a matched gift from the School, the Scholarship now has over $350,000 and will be awarded for the first time to a student commencing in 2019.
“The Tommy Garnett Scholarship honours his legacy by providing a life-changing opportunity to girls and boys who could not otherwise afford a Geelong Grammar School education.”
The Scholarship will be awarded to students who display qualities of general excellence and demonstrate enthusiasm and interest across the School’s academic and wider curricular activities, in the spirit of Tommy Garnett himself, whose interests were so diverse and enthusiastically pursued. “Tommy was himself the beneficiary of a scholarship to both Charterhouse School and Cambridge University, which led to his remarkable career and life,” Foundation Chair, Penny McBain, explained. “He was a man of natural modesty and an astonishing range of interests and accomplishments – from classics scholar to gardener, cricketer and transformational Headmaster. Tommy left an indelible impression on Geelong Grammar School through sowing the seeds of co-education. The Tommy Garnett Scholarship honours his legacy by providing a life-changing opportunity to girls and boys who could not otherwise afford a Geelong Grammar School education. I do believe that Tommy would be as delighted as we are and I am immensely grateful to all those who have supported this Scholarship.”

I
t’s a line adopted by country football coaches across Australia to inspire their charges but, for Andrew and Emma Muir, it reflects their philosophy of philanthropy.
The Muir family identified the Toorak Wellbeing Centre as “their turn”; a facility at a campus their children loved attending, with a heavy focus on one of their passions; healthy eating habits and nutrition. “It’s a way for us to give back to the School. We enjoyed our time as parents at Glamorgan (Toorak Campus). Our children LOVED it. Just when we started the Glamorgan Centre had been built, and we just felt that this was our time to help the next generation,” Emma said. The Toorak Wellbeing Centre opened in November 2017. The Centre was made possible by the wonderful support of our School community, including the Muir family, with almost $4 million raised for the project. The Centre features a 25-metre swimming pool, spaces for meditation and collaborative learning, and critically, in the eyes of Andrew, a fullyequipped kitchen classroom (the Muir Family Nutrition Centre). Andrew established The Good Foundation (TGF) in 2010. Its vision is to lead the transformation of Australia's food habits through advocacy, programme delivery and collaboration to maximise the health, wellbeing and productivity of communities. Andrew, through TGF, was instrumental in bringing Jamie Oliver’s Ministry of Food to Australia, which has since trained over 39,000 people through their courses across the country.
“For us, it’s about whole child development – trying not only to make them fit and healthy, and give them the opportunity to express themselves through Pos Ed and mindfulness, but also through nutrition to make them healthy on the inside.”
The Muir Family Nutrition Centre provides students with the means to get creative in the kitchen and have some fun exploring healthy and nourishing food. “For us, it’s about whole child development – trying not only to make them fit and healthy, and give them the opportunity to express themselves through Pos Ed and mindfulness, but also through nutrition to make them healthy on the inside,” Andrew said. For Andrew and Emma, it’s about achieving a generational habitual change; instilling healthy eating habits and a love of food at the Toorak Campus that translates through to Senior School and into adulthood. “The obesity graph is going up and up. To get the graph levelling off – let alone down – would be a huge achievement. The way to change the graph is to re-educate a new generation of kids. And hopefully they might in fact go home and, at the dinner table, educate their parents.” 16

Biddlecombe SOCIETY
T
he Biddlecombe Society was founded in 2002 to honour those who remember Geelong Grammar School in their will. It takes its name from one of the School’s greatest benefactors, Janet Biddlecombe (née Russell), who with her husband John, funded six masters’ residences at Corio between 1920 and 1925, and (with the Bell family) the Music School, which opened in 1938. The Biddlecombe Society continues to grow and in 2017 expanded from 148 to 171 members. The society comprises a diverse group of people who have a deep commitment to future-proofing GGS. In 2017, a total of 238 people attended the six events hosted by the Biddlecombe Society. 55 people attended the annual Bellarine Peninsula luncheon at the Barwon Heads Golf Club in March, where the School’s then Principal, Stephen Meek, was the guest speaker. 27 people attended a lunch at the Adelaide Club in May, and the guest speaker was Charlie Scudamore. 41 people attended a cocktail evening hosted by Susan and John Morrison (M’80) at Wooriwyrite in the Western District, which featured a special video message from Michael Collins Persse MVO OAM. In August, 35 people enjoyed delightful slow-cooked winter fare amongst the barrels at Ros Ritchie Wines, hosted by Ros Adams (Ritchie, Cl’76) and husband John at their beautiful property in North East Victoria. 35 people attended a Sydney luncheon at the Royal Sydney Golf Club in September. The School’s Vice Principal, Charlie Scudamore, spoke about the School’s journey with Positive Education, which has enhanced its global reputation as a pioneer of modern education. Neil Robertson (FB’72), Chairman of the Biddlecombe Society, hosted the Society’s largest gathering of 90 people at Kooyong Lawn Tennis Club in October. Head of Timbertop, Tom Hall, was guest speaker and gave an insightful address about how Timbertop meets the challenges that modern-day life presents while staying true to Sir James Darling’s original ideals.
In 2017, over $2 million was received from members of our community who chose to support the School through their will.
In 2018, the Biddlecombe Society will have a more national focus. Interstate visits are scheduled for Canberra, Tasmania, Perth, Gold Coast and Brisbane. Being in touch with people across Australia will enable the Society to have greater engagement and connection with the wider GGS community. The combination of increased visits and scheduled events will achieve improved stewardship and further build the profile of making a bequest to the School. The Geelong Grammar Foundation is most grateful for each and every valued member of the Biddlecombe Society. You are an intrinsic cornerstone to the future of Geelong Grammar School.

Charlie Sutherland (P’86): I have many fond memories of my time at Geelong Grammar School. I am lucky to still enjoy the friendships I made 30-40 years ago at Bostock House, Glamorgan, Corio and Timbertop. I have reflected on both my connection and my family’s special association with the School. It has provided so many opportunities for which I am most appreciative. I would be delighted if in some small way, I could help by enabling future students to experience the same. I joined the Biddlecombe Society with the intent to include Geelong Grammar School in my future planning. Along with many others, I feel happy that through my bequest, Geelong Grammar School will continue to be able to offer an exceptional education and wonderful opportunities to its students for the years and decades to follow.

he Annual Giving programme provides resources for libraries, extra support for building projects and funds for scholarships. We surpassed the 2016 Annual Giving amount by 13%, raising a total of $197,880 in 2017. There were more people engaged in giving (up 24%), providing more positive outcomes. Geelong Grammar School offers more than just an education – it provides a genuinely transformational experience. Scholarships have an integral and vital role to play in our community, ensuring a healthy diversity amongst the student body. Currently almost 25% of our secondary students benefit from financial assistance through our Scholarship programme. 71.5% of Annual Giving in 2017 was directed towards supporting scholarships. Our campus libraries are epicenters of learning and creativity; spaces where children can discover and express their potential, abilities and curiosity. Libraries are not simply books and desks, they are dynamic and collaborative learning spaces, integral to the way the entire School functions.

I Positive EDUCATION
t was a decade that made a positive difference. In 2007, the Geelong Grammar Foundation provided the initial $1.9 million of seed funding to develop the relatively new field of Positive Psychology at the School. In 2017, the School’s pioneering development of Positive Education was recognised as one of the world’s 100 most inspiring education innovations by Finnish education organisation HundrED. In those 10 years, Positive Education was embraced by educational institutions around Australia and the world and made a positive difference to the wellbeing of students and staff at Geelong Grammar School. The development and growth of Positive Education was possible through the generous contributions of many people, but particularly through the ongoing support of the Handbury family, especially Geoff Handbury and his late wife Helen.
“My dad and mum chose to be philanthropic because they wanted to help make the world a better place” Their son, Paddy Handbury (M’72), said that beyond the Handbury Centre for Wellbeing at Corio, his parents were most interested in “trying to improve children’s resilience and to arm them to be better able to cope when they leave school. My dad and mum chose to be philanthropic because they wanted to help make the world a better place, particularly for adolescents everywhere,” Paddy said. Consequently, he said that it had been “incredibly fulfilling” to be involved in the progression of Positive Education, the establishment of the Institute of Positive Education and its outreach work with other schools. “When you see it spreading to schools in places like northern Adelaide, which is a pretty tough part of the world where kids have really got some challenges in front of them, and you know it’s really making an impact, it is very fulfilling.” The Handbury family continued to support Positive Education in 2017, generously donating $385,000 via the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) to support four key projects: 22
1. Post-School Research Melbourne University and the Australian Research Council (ARC) began researching the “effects of Positive Education during the critical post-school transition”. The project is examining how Positive Education can help equip young people with skills and strategies to manage post-school challenges related to work, learning and relationships, and subsequently reduce the high rates of mental illness and youth disengagement. The study will include independent and government schools and develop programmes to assist young people to successfully navigate emerging adulthood. 2. Giving for a Better World Deakin University’s Dr Bill Hallam led an ongoing research project into how being involved in philanthropy and social issues can promote student wellbeing. Giving for a Better World involved Year 8 and Year 10 students at Geelong Grammar School collaborating on projects that encouraged “learning to care beyond self-interest”. Many of the projects targeted local charities, including Geelong Animal Rescue, Geelong Red Cross, Headspace and Orange Sky Laundry. 3. Positive Education Hub The Institute of Positive Education commenced discussions with key people to establish a “hub” of Positive Education in Hamilton in south-west Victoria. The hub would support the development of staff in the core skills of Positive Education, providing consultation services to individual schools across a network of 29 schools and assisting with curriculum needs. 4. Enhanced Curriculum The Institute of Positive Education commenced work on a Positive Education Enhanced Curriculum (PEEC). Almost 250 lessons and associated materials have been developed, which are currently being piloted at Geelong Grammar School, from Early Learning to Year 10. The Institute’s curriculum writers have also created a number of supporting documents for teachers, including summaries of the theory of each Enrichment Module taught. The Positive Education Fundraising Committee raised an additional $11,000 via the Foundation for Rural and Regional Renewal (FRRR) in 2017, which was used to assist the Institute to deliver a three-day Discovering Positive Education workshop in Alice Springs. The former Head of Timbertop and current Principal of St Philips College in Alice Springs, Roger Herbert, facilitated the workshop at his school. The funding subsidised the training and consultation fees for educators from low socio-economic status schools in the region and supported an outreach workshop in outback Northern Territory. 2017 IMPACT OF GIVING - GEELONG GRAMMAR FOUNDATION

Buildings YACHT CLUB PROJECT
T
he Foundation received more than $180,000 in pledges and gifts for the proposed new sailing facility in 2017, bringing the total raised to more than $630,000 of the $1.7 million target.
“The new sailing facility on Limeburners Bay will equip and empower our students”
The new sailing facility on Limeburners Bay will equip and empower our students, staff and volunteers. It will also enable us to host Yachting Victoria events and showcase Geelong Grammar School and its commitment to sailing as a co-educational sport. The architect designed new sailing facility will have: •
Storage area for 20 Pacers
•
Hard-standing secure area outside for 20 fully rigged Pacers
•
Change rooms
•
Viewing and Hospitality area
•
Display area for photographs, awards and burgees
•
A concrete apron and ramp with direct access to Limeburners Bay
Generations of boys and girls have sailed with the Geelong Grammar School Yacht Club and enjoyed the many physical, social, mental and personal benefits that sailing brings to people’s lives. This project is a great investment for future generations of sailing students and will have a positive impact over many years ahead.
Richard and Janet Southby VISITING FELLOWS PROGRAMME
T
he Visiting Fellows Programme was established in 2005 by Dr Richard Southby (FB’57) and his wife Janet to inspire, invigorate and encourage debate among Geelong Grammar School students, staff and the wider GGS community. By inviting a broad range of leading thinkers to the School to deliver lectures and workshops, the programme brings intellectual rigor and stimulates new ideas, with a particular focus on international engagement. “It has been our vision to provide opportunities for students to meet and interact with visiting scholars and practising professionals from a wide variety of backgrounds on topics which may not be addressed in typical classroom settings, but would expand their academic horizons,” Richard and Janet explained. “Looking back at the range of topics already covered and the amazing list of distinguished Southby Fellows who have come to the School, we have been delighted by the success of this programme.” In 2017, the School hosted four very diverse Visiting Fellows.
