Defence School Mentor

Townsville Grammar School is dedicated to supporting Defence families and a Defence School Mentor is available for all three Campuses. The School acknowledges that additional care may be required during times of deployment, exercise and throughout the year. The support from the DTMs makes a genuine difference - ensuring students know they are not alone, especially if a parent is away for an extended period.
