Project School Formal

Formals are highly anticipated at the best of times, but with Covid postponing the event twice already, the Bishop Druitt College Year 12 formal held special significance for students and parents who came together to celebrate on Friday night.

It was held at Pacific Bay Resort and involved a valedictory dinner for more than 180 guests who celebrated well into the evening with photo booths and dancing.

“The last two years of schooling has been pretty tough on the senior class of 2021,” Year 12 co-ordinator Terry Close said.

“During what is arguably the most important two years of school, these students have shown great resilience to change, and demonstrated a determination to achieve no matter what life, or Covid restrictions, throws at them.”

Mr Close said he could not be more proud of this cohort of students for how they had overcome the challenges before them and supported each other along the way.

“I am confident that their amazing quality of character will help them to find great success as they continue on their journey into the world.”
