AS TWILIGHT descended on a brilliant spring day last week it was a time to dance for ten students from Verney Road School who partook in their Debutante Ball. Accompanied by volunteer partners from GSSC, ACE College and Notre Dame College, the couples frocked up to grace the dancefloor at the Woolshed in front of 140 friends and family.
After months of planning, beginning with a committee at the start of the year, everything came through to create the perfect night. The partners were organised, and students practised on Friday mornings under the watchful eye of Senior Year Unit Leader, Lisa Warren. Ramping up the practice to twice a week as the night drew closer.
The proud friends and families watched the Debutants grace the floor for two dances before parents joined their children in the last formal dance of the night.
The gorgeous couples twirling the night away:
Chelsea Hughes & Jesse Prentice Noah Waters & Essie Cox
Nahkeegee Weston & Will Broom David Langworthy & Abby Favaro
Mitchell McKay & Lucy Ludlow Tyler Boschetti & Imogen Sutherland
Olivia Mancini & Marc Lawless Ryan Mackelmann & Jessi Hicks
