Stone’s St Dominic’s Priory School annual Spring Ball took place last weekend at Stoke City Football Club’s Britannia Stadium.
The event was kindly sponsored by Stoke City chairman Peter Coates and organised by Mrs Stacey, a parent at the school on behalf of the PFA.
Ten per cent of the funds raised from ticket sales were donated to Douglas Macmillan Hospice, the rest of the proceeds will go towards projects that will enrich and enhance the pupils’ educational experiences at the school.
Nick Hancock – comedian, presenter, actor and one of the best-known Stoke City supporters around – kindly agreed to give his time for the evening and acted as a very able and humorous Master of Ceremonies.
The auction was hosted by Mark Gardiner whose expertise and experience ensured all donated Lots received the maximum of bids.
Entertainment was supplied by ‘Groove Environment’, a fantastic 7-piece band playing classic soul, funk and disco covers; they had everyone up on the dancefloor for a boogie which shows just how good they really were.
Rebecca Harrison, headteacher of St Dominic’s Priory School expressed her appreciation to all involved and reiterated how much the funds raised would enhance the school and their students.
