This isthe way PGA workswith their studentsletting them discovertheir way but guidingthem quietly frombehind and leadingwhen needed butPGA will not get allthe credit theydeserve as the girlswill feel they made itthemselves.Academy TeacherTeacher TestimonyThroughout the year it has been pleasing to see the positive growth of students that arepart of PGA. The girls clearly feel a sense of belonging and accomplishment throughtheir participation in competitions, trainings, programs and leadership amongst peers.They wear their PGA uniforms with pride and know that they are held accountable fortheir actions in a supportive and fair manner. Within classes, members are enthusiasticabout their involvement in PGA and foster positive relationships amongst their peers andwith teachers.It has been extremely beneficial for the girls to willingly complete their class assignmentsand set tasks in the PGA room as they are supervised by the PGA leaders, thereforeachieving their own academic goals as well. It is evident that students feel PGA is a saferetreat where they are welcomed and fostered especially by the leaders, whom the girlsgreatly admire and respect.©RM&LA Palmerston Girls Academy Annual Report: December 2012 pg 6
