Students set high standards

-

Benalla FCJ College students dressed up and put on their dancing shoes on Friday, September 7, for a Presentati­on Ball held at the Community Lakeside Centre.

The Year 11 students participat­ed in eight weeks of dancing lessons before the ball to make sure they put their forward on the night.

The night included progressiv­e dances to contempora­ry music, as well as the standout parentstud­ent dance.

College principal Joanne Rock said the night was a success from start to finish. best feet

‘‘The students looked spectacula­r and conducted themselves wonderfull­y in line with the formality of the evening,’’ Ms Rock said.

‘‘Once the formal part of the night was over it was a delight to see the dancefloor full of students, parents, staff and siblings, all enjoying themselves enormously.

‘‘This group of students have set the standard for this event at a very high level.’’

Acommittee was formed earlier in the year consisting of staff and Year 11 student volunteers who committed to the planning and organisati­on of the event, which also included a sit-down meal.

The school said the concept of the Presentati­on Ball was for every student to feel special, unique and valued equally, with the ball allowing students to dress individual­ly and be acknowledg­ed with the rest of the year level.
