Warrack deb couples presented
Warracknabeal Secondary College (WSC) debutants and their partners have been presented at the school's annual ball.
The couples graced the stage of Warracknabeal Town Hall during the event March 2.
Co-ordinated by Sarah-Jayne Holland, the boys' suits were supplied by Geoffrey's Mens and Boyswear, while Brock Lynch and Gabi Powell trained the debs and their partners.
The couples were presented to WSC principal Casey Phelan, invited guest John Bish and school council vice-president Rebecca Lewis.
They performed the Pride of Erin, the Augustine Progressive, the Palmer Waltz, the Lumiere Formation, Modern Jive and the Warrack Stomp, which has become a traditional expectation of the deb ball after Mr Lynch first choreographed the dance 15 years ago.
