 Glenala State High School, Breaking Down the Barriers From humble beginnings as a Year 8 reading program, Breaking Down the Barriers has grown into a major program for all year levels at Glenala State High School. A result of a four-year partnership between Minter Ellison Lawyers and the school, students have an opportunity to better themselves and prepare for life after school. A major focus is still reading and one-on-one mentoring, which helps students develop literacy, workplace and social skills, improve their health and well-being and receive financial support through a scholarship program. All proof that from little things, big things grow.
