Archives

 

 

The MGGS Archives were first established in 1998 to ensure the collection, retention and preservation of the School’s tangible and intangible history.  The Archives provides access to the extensive historical holdings of the School to students and staff, and to the wider community, for curriculum and research purposes, and general historical interest.  Melbourne Girls Grammar School, through its former students and staff, has made a significant contribution to girls’ education, and to the cultural capital of Victorian and Australian society.
