ARRIVING in a mix of classic cars and flashy modern vehicles, the students of Fraser Coast Anglican College were ready for a night of glitz and glamour.
Dressed to the nines, the teens made their arrival, looking forward to a night of fun together at the Hervey Bay Boat Club.
Each student walked the red carpet and took to the stage for a quick interview before enjoying a night of fun inside the venue.
Careful planning for a COVID-19-safe event had gone into the evening, with the students arriving in stages, giving each individual a moment in the spotlight.
Inside, a beautifully decorated formal area waited for them.
While there could be no dancing, thanks to restrictions in place due to the pandemic, the night promised to be a one of fun and celebration.
The formal was the third of the year on the Fraser Coast.
