Festive Spalding Grammar School sixth formers danced the night away at White Ball

Sixth formers had the chance to get in the festive mood last week.

Spalding Grammar School pupils enjoyed their White Ball at the town’s Sessions House on Friday, which is planned to be an annual event.

Splendidly dressed in ball gowns and dinner jackets, students from across the sixth form, were treated to a festive buffet before adjourning to the courtroom for after-dinner dancing and much laughter.

Head of sixth form Dr Adriana Leadbeater said: “We wanted both Year 12 and Year 13 students to come together as a whole post-16 community and enjoy a festive evening before the school breaks for the Christmas holidays, a just reward after so much hard work since the start of the academic year.

“As head of sixth form, it is my privilege to work alongside students to ensure their time in the sixth form is productive and rewarding but also full of wonderful memories.”
