The Hug is DSG’s much loved sculpture positioned at the heart of DSGâs campus, outside the All Saintâs Chapel. It was gifted to DSG in 2006 by Michelle Key, a celebrated artist and sculptor. The act of hugging has become synonymous with life at DSG, and in honour of her daughters, who both loved their time at the school, Michelle felt the hug would be the perfect subject matter to symbolise their respective experiences. The Hug is a young girl being welcomed to âthe sisterhoodâ with a warm embrace by Senior girl as she looks towards her promising future. Interesting facts: Weighs 140kgs. One of the models was Michelleâs daughter Nicky – her actual blazer, shoes and uniform were part of the casting process. Doc Watson, Head of Council in 2006 commented âsignifies the emotion of DSG which is one of warmth and caring.â

THE STORY OF THE WALL: The Wall is what separates the DSG school from the grounds of St Andrews. The wall is also the common place for the meeting of the two schools. The Evergreen book describes the wall as â a place through which the lovers did often whisper very secretly â. Todayâs Wall is something quite different. In the centre of the Maths Block, one can find the beautifully decorated coffee shop, selling everything from freshly popped popcorn to jam donuts and samosas. However, one thing about the original wall still remains, girls and boys still go meet there and have endless conversations and solve the âworldâs problems.â
