Senior College Formal 2024

There was an atmosphere of excitement and anticipation as a large group of 560 students and several staff arrived at Te Pae Christchurch Convention Centre on Saturday 3 August for the highly anticipated 2024 Senior College Formal.

Dressed in their finery, the senior students enjoyed a fabulous night of singing, dancing, and having formal photographs taken, preserving lots of special memories from the night.

This was the second year the Formal was held at Te Pae, and the guests were highly complimentary of the food, drink, DJ, and five-star amenities on offer.

The venue was spectacularly decorated to fit the theme ‘Meet me at midnight’ which had been chosen by the Senior College Council. A large wall of programmed lights, multiple disco balls, and a huge clock face painted by Heads of Art, Lily Hart and Oscar Reed (both Year 13), helped to create a fantastic atmosphere.

The Senior College Council did a wonderful job of coming up with creative ideas and organising the event, with help from Preparatory School Receptionist, Kelsey Williams, and Senior College Administrator, Jocelyn Simmons. There was a fantastic turnout of staff to support the students, including many Years 12 and 13 tutors, and year group Deans, Dayna Stirling and Riley Gain.

The Senior College Formal was a great success, creating many unforgettable memories for our senior students.
