DSG girls are educated to assume an active role in society, serving and giving of their time generously both now and after they leave school.
Reaching out to the greater community is of great importance in the DSG.
Activities start with fundraising and distribution projects in the Junior School, which aim at making our young girls socially aware. Junior School teachers offer skills training for staff from disadvantaged schools.
Senior School outreach entails active service on several levels in the wider community, sharing the resources on our campus and teaching disadvantaged pupils in the girls’ free time. The main community service programme is the President’s Award which encourages our girls to develop themselves through service to others. Their interaction with pupils from diverse social, economic and ethnic backgrounds makes our girls aware of the challenges in the broader community.
