Womensport and Recreation Tasmania (WSRT) invited female school students aged 11 to 18 years and accompanying teachers to a free International Women’s Day School Girls’ Brunch in the Devonport region on Tuesday 11 March. 

Presented in partnership with the Devonport City Council, this exciting event brought together young women to hear from an inspiring panel of guest speakers from the sporting sector, who shared their experiences, knowledge, and motivation.

Research shows that events of this nature, and the opportunity to hear from inspiring and relatable speakers, has a positive impact on teenage girls, boosting their confidence and empowering them to reach their full potential. By hearing first-hand from women who have excelled in their fields, our attendees gained valuable insights and were inspired to pursue their own dreams.

​​The brunch was held at the Paranaple Centre celebrating International Women’s Day 2025, and the joy and benefits of sport and recreation. ​
