St John's Anglican College

The Junior School Fancy Dress Ball brought together more than 500 students and family members for an evening of music, dancing and tradition.

From the excitement of a Prep student's first performance to the Year 6 Greased Lightning finale, every dance marked a step in a journey shared by generations of St John's students.

A night of laughter, costumes and memories, and another chapter in a much-loved school tradition.
