Shalom College is currently organising an inaugural Empowering Women’s Breakfast for Friday 5 May. At Shalom College we place great importance in recognising and supporting our young female students to reach their potential whether it is in the classroom, on the sporting field, on the stage or within industry. With the Empowering Women’s Breakfast, we hope to inspire the young women in the room to persevere when faced with difficulties that they encounter in life and empower them to be resilient and persistent when they endeavor to succeed in their chosen path.  It will also be an opportunity to celebrate the great women in our lives and the great women in the lives of our students. 

The 2023 event will include guest speakers Gretel Butea, (Australian Netball Diamonds, Queensland Firebirds and Commonwealth Games Netball medalist), Tanya O’Shea (Leadership Coach and Mentor) and other special guests.  There will also be fundraising raffles with prizes including an Australian Diamond’s Netball dress, a signed Australian Diamond’s Netball and a signed Queensland Firebirds Netball. 

Funds raised from the breakfast will go towards our female QISSN (Netball) and QISSRL (Rugby League) teams to financially support these young athletes to attend the 2023 carnivals.

We are currently seeking expressions of interest from businesses to help sponsor the inaugural event.
