Celebrate 150 years on Compton Road – Two sparkling events, one historic milestone

Join us as we mark 150 years since our school’s relocation to Compton Road with two unforgettable events—the Legacy Glitter Ball and the Sparkling Heritage Garden Party.

Each celebration offers a unique way to honour our proud past while helping to shape the future through support for bursaries and life-changing education.

Whether you're donning black tie and dancing the night away at the Glitter Ball or enjoying vintage charm and traditional fun at the Garden Party, these events promise to bring our WGS community together in style.

`Legacy Glitter Ball`
