KLOOF High School’s Grade 10 learners enjoyed their much anticipated Debutante and Squires Ball at the end of August.

The hall was beautifully decorated in pink, black and white and the learners looked elegant in white gowns and tuxedos.

The tradition was started five years ago with Grade 9 learners embarking on a fundraising driver which culminated in a ball in their Grade 10 year. The 2013 group raised in excess of R75000. These funds are used to improve the school facilities. A charity collection is also done every Wednesday morning with the money going to various charity organisations.

Mrs Yolanda Shiers, the teacher in charge of the Debutantes and Squires, said, “I would like to commend the 2013 group for a job well done and would like to challenge the current Grade 9s to improve on the total raised in 2013.”

She also congratulated the top 2013 fundraising Squire, Caleb Janssens (R20 000) and the top Debutante of 2013, Alex Marais (R9 500).
