Our community gathered bright and early this morning for our 2026 International Women’s Day Breakfast – a morning of inspiration, connection and empowerment.

We were delighted to welcome back Class of 1986’s Louise Bedford as our guest speaker. A globally respected behavioural finance expert, author and speaker, Louise delivered an engaging and often humorous talk, sharing powerful insights on confidence, mindset and leadership. She spoke about the importance of taking safe risks, thinking differently and having the courage to back yourself – lessons that have helped shape her remarkable career.

Encouraging everyone to challenge themselves and step beyond their comfort zones, Louise left the audience with a powerful question: “What boundary are you going to push to climb your own tower?”

Guests also enjoyed thoughtful student reflections and an empowering performance of Helen Reddy’s ‘I Am Woman’, performed by our Year 10 Music Masterclass group.

Thank you to our Wellbeing Team and everyone involved in creating such a meaningful event celebrating leadership, confidence and the power of women supporting one another.
