2016 School Magazine

Among all the excitement, we couldn’t forget about the charity aspect of night. As a cohort, we had to decide on the charity that the funds raised from the night would support. This was determined by an online vote. By a large margin, it was decided that The Desert Flower Foundation would be our charity for this year. The Desert Flower Foundation seeks to raise awareness and ultimately prevent female genital mutilation around the world. In the months leading up to the social: dresses were purchased, spray tans booked and heels broken in. When all of a sudden, the 23rd of July was upon us. The night itself was nothing short of a smashing success, with all students walking out of Victoria Park tired but very happy. Surprisingly, however, four hours of dancing is not the most forgiving on the feet. The Athletics Carnival on the following Monday wasn’t exactly a walk in the park!
