7 July, 2009:  A glamorous Leavers’ Ball was held for the Sixth Form girls of the Marist Senior School who have now completed their final exams and will shortly head off to their chosen university.

On Tuesday 30 June, Year 13 students attended the ‘red carpet’ themed event at the beautiful Northcote House, Sunningdale Park, with their partners, parents and Marist staff.  The girls all looked beautiful in their gowns and the late evening sunshine added an extra sparkle to the occasion.  The evening began with a champagne reception followed by dinner and dancing.  The Royal Borough Mayor and Mayoress also attended – Mr Jesse Grey and his wife Christine.
 
Mr Karl McCloskey, Headteacher at the Marist Senior School said “It is always sad saying goodbye to our girls but it is wonderful to be able to give them a happy and memorable event to end on.  We wish every blessing and much happiness to the girls as they leave school to embark on their university education and future professional careers.  It has been a pleasure knowing each and every one of them.”
