Traditional standards. Modern confidence.

The Modern Young Lady brings enduring standards of consideration, self-respect and good judgement into the world teenage girls are navigating now. It is not about perfection or pretence. It is about helping each participant understand her value, communicate with confidence and carry herself with grace in school, friendships, family life, digital spaces and future opportunities.

Confidence & Self-Respect

Recognising personal worth, developing a steady sense of self and learning to enter new situations with assurance.

Poise & Personal Presentation

Posture, deportment, presence, grooming, personal style and presenting oneself appropriately without losing individuality.

Communication & Modern Etiquette

Conversation, introductions, listening, respectful language, digital manners and the social intelligence to make others feel considered.

Boundaries & Future Readiness

Healthy boundaries, self-respect, judgement, interview readiness and practical confidence for the transition into adult life.

  • Three hours of personal instruction with Susie Barber
  • Afternoon refreshments
