ST JOSEPH'S COLLEGE BALL

61st ANNUAL ST JOSEPH'S COLLEGE BALL

All Year 9 to 12 students are invited to attend the 61st Annual St Joseph’s College Ball on the evening of Friday September 13, 2019. 

The College Ball will be held at the St Joseph’s College Stadium, Mercy Campus site.  Entry will be from the Aero ovals side of the venue, via the Riverside Trade training entrance doors. Entry Doors will open from 7.15pm, the Ball starts at 7.30pm and finishes at 10.30pm. Doors will close by 8.00pm sharp and there will be no late entry granted to students. We ask that parents make arrangements to pick up students from 10.30pm. We also advise that interests of safety and traffic management that entry to the Mercy Campus will be from the Eleventh Street entry gate only, with one-way traffic movement around the Mercy Campus site with the exit being on Riverside Avenue.

The College Ball is a formal style dance; as such, certain standards of dress and behaviour are anticipated. Normal school expectations of behaviour and conduct are expected on the night. This is an alcohol and drug free event, any students suspected of being under the influence will be set aside and parents will be contacted as required. Security Personnel will be employed on the night to assist staff with supervision.

Students are advised to make particular note of the following:

* Formal attire will be strictly enforced (boys - smart pants, shirt with collar, tie & jacket (optional), girls - modest evening wear). Wearing casual/sport footwear is not acceptable.

* All students are asked to bring a plate of supper that will be shared on the night (boys - savouries, girls - sweets).

* Bottled Water will be sold on the night and there will also be free iced-water available for all students.

Tickets will go on sale on Wednesday August 28, cost is $15.00 per student and $25.00 for family tickets (two or more siblings). Tickets will be available from the office at recess and lunchtimes and before and after school until 3.45pm. We encourage all students to attend with a positive attitude and to expect the unexpected. A memorable, fun night of dancing is guaranteed!
