As Canberra transformed, so did CGGS, emerging from each challenge with deepened purpose. For a century its classrooms have shaped dreamers, doers and disrupters, women who have carried the School's founding spirit out to every corner of the globe.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eA Mantle of Light\u003c\/i\u003e\u003cspan\u003e is the story of the first 100 years of CGGS: the visionaries who built it, the communities who sustained it and the generations of Grammarians who grew up within its walls.
