The Annual Mater Dei Ball

The annual Mater Dei Ball

The annual Mater Dei Ball was held at the Cube on Saturday, with this year's theme being a "Masquerade Ball". As always the function was a sell-out hit, with the who's who of Macarthur in attendance looking bright eyed and ready to support this great little school. The children's choir sang to great effect and the school's Principal, Mr. Tony Fitzgerald, once again spoke quite movingly. He told the audience of his pride in being a leader of the school and most importantly, how it connects with the local community. I'm pretty sure Fitz has been at the helm for 9 years now and I've got to say, it's a testament to his hard work and compassion that allows the school to continue to thrive. It's been a part of Wakelings for a very long time too and we're always proud to host the kids in our workplace, help at their golf day and support this great event. The lovely Sarah Ryan hosted and the night was a great success, with a record amount of money raised just over $340.000!! Well done to all who supported the night and congratulation to the community that dares to dream!!
