Debs raise over R1-million

Holy Rosary High School recently held its annual Debutantes Ball, at the Birchwood Hotel, to celebrate its grade 10 girls’ fundraising efforts.

The 2013 Debs Queen, Andrea Arnold, raised R156 577 – a significant contribution to the total amount raised.

Over R1-million was raised through market days, selling school magazine adverts, private and group functions and selling raffle tickets.

One third of the funds raised will go towards various charities, including the Holy Rosary Sisters, CHOC, Love of Christ, St Anne’s Old Age Home, Holy Rosary’s Outreach Programme and Little Eden. The remainder of the funds will go to upgrading the high school’s consumer studies kitchen and towards the Bishop Shanahan Hall and Conference Centre, which will be officially opened at the end of October.
