International Women's Day Celebrations - Pictures

Here at HAB we celebrated International Women’s Day with various events around the school throughout the day to raise awareness and conversations around this year's theme of #BreakTheBias.

Our exciting flashmob dance performance during lunch times took everyone by surprise! Ms Dawson and Ms Palmer our dance teachers helped prepare the students for this surprise routine.

“The flash mob was performed to spread the word and support International Woman's Day," said Ms Dawson. "International Women’s Day is a celebration, and that celebration was shared with HAB students and staff through Dance. Dance is an amazing tool for students to express their emotions and experiences. Both the students and staff showed their support for the dancers, and it created a lovely sense of community.”

“International Women’s Day means a lot to us because It’s a day for us to acknowledge all that we do as women and our achievements. We performed our dance to all HAB students, and we found the experience really fun. We were happy to show everyone all of our hard work and put a smile on their faces.” Faith and Esther, Year 9 performers


Girls Allowed programme

Meanwhile… the Girls Allowed programme visited us at HAB in celebration of International Women’s Day and we had a fun afternoon exclusively for all Year 7 students packed with a range of multi sports, from football, street dance, roller skating and more.

A live DJ was spinning tracks to ensure it was a fun atmosphere. As part of the experience, we welcomed qualified coaches to support the students with the activities as well as HAB staff joining in to support and maximise the year groups’ enjoyment of the afternoon. 

The programme aims to remove participation barriers by equipping each student with a sport bra. The Girls Allowed event organisers gifted each student with a Nike sports bra. To see more photos from the day, click HERE.

“It was a huge success, the students had fun, they were all active and enjoyed taking part in sports and physical activities," said Ms Kelly. "The teachers enjoyed themselves too with lots of dancing! Thank you to everyone involved that helped to make the event possible."

"I only have one word to describe the experience, amazing! I would love to see more of Girls Allowed. The music was a whole vibe and the activities were great, keeping me energetic and alive. Girls Allowed forever!" Jaya 7C 

"The word I can use to describe this powerful and inspiring experience is AMAZING! This experience will change my view on society. I really liked the fitness because of the teamwork, I loved it!"  Mabinty 7A 

"I loved the event because there was a lot of fun sports and that was so excellent. I also enjoyed the dance we did and wish it lasted longer. I liked playing football because I won every round. It made me love sports and want to do more of it. I also loved doing the fitness activity."  Ibukun 7B 

"Yesterday was a fun day we had so many fun things too. I loved the roller skating and basketball. It was International Women's Day so that made it special. The activities were so enjoyable. I hope to do it again." Vera Year 7
