The Geelong College Autumn Ball

It was delightful to see over 530 enthusiastic members of our Geelong College Community gathered at The Pier for a night of fun and celebration at The Geelong College Autumn Ball on Saturday 30 April. After a year of planning, two reschedules and six years since our last Ball, the small dedicated organising team from the The Senior School and Preparatory School Parents’ Associations were delighted to see the enjoyment in the room as guests ate, drank and danced the night away. The Ball was the commemoration of two significant events in the school’s history, the 100th anniversary of the Preparatory School and 160th anniversary of The Geelong College. We thank The Pier and our sponsors, Hip Pocket Geelong, Kardinia Property, Malishev Homes, McHarry’s Bus Lines, Mercedes Benz Geelong, and West, Carr and Harvey, and all who joined us on the night. In particular, thanks to Shelley Watson, Tim Brown and Sara Taylor-Wilson.
