Welcome to the Where are they now? Survey. A survey designed to see what you’ve been up to since your last Girls on Fire program.
The Girls on Fire team are humbled and grateful for all the recent coverage from our first ever Victorian Fire and Resilience Program. Here is a snippet of the great coverage we received...
Girls on Fire will put a spark in the hearts of girls in Ballarat Victoria. As we switch from the land of the long white cloud in Rotorua New Zealand to the bent elbow or resting place of country Victoria, we reflect on why we get up in the morning to do what we do. And why we want every girl out there to consider joining us for a day (or in Ballarat’s case, two!) to experience Girls on Fire.
We acknowledge the Traditional Owners of the land where we work and live. Girls on Fire pay our respects to Elders past, present and emerging. We celebrate the stories, culture and traditions of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander Elders of all communities who also work and live on this land.
