Women2Watch
Women2Watch is an opportunity to identify, acknowledge and celebrate the huge contributions, both national and global, being made by some of our 2,400 Old Girls aged 35 and under. The Heritage Foundation and Old Girls' League, under whose auspices the Women2Watch event is run, believe it is a great opportunity to recognise those inspirational and talented women who are making their mark on the world and who are Dio’s rising stars. These women are invited back to the School to share their experiences and learning with current students.
The Heritage Foundation brings you the 2011 presentation of the Woman2Watch awards where we celebrate young women following their stars and honor those past students who are making their dreams become a reality. The special assembly will be held in the Sports Centre at 10.30am, Friday 19 August.
