Birkenhead School 150th Anniversary Dinner Dance
To celebrate the 150th anniversary of the founding of the School, the Society will be holding a dinner dance in the events marquee at the School. All Old Birkonians and their partners are welcome.
Whilst we recognise this will be a special occasion and many will treat it as a black tie event, as some members will be travelling great distances, blazers or lounge suit will be quite acceptable.
The event will include:-
· Champagne reception courtesy of our past president Graham Richards
· 3 course dinner catered by award winning ‘Heathcotes’
· Dance Band ‘Episode’ in the events marquee – including two old Birkonian musicians
· Quiet rooms and Bar in McAllester Building
· Year group tables of 10 or 12 people
We already have a number of year group leaders and will also keep an up to date acceptance list on our website – please stay in touch and encourage your contemporaries to attend.
The cost will be £40 a head, with a concessionary rate of £20 for full time students.
Sunday 12th September 2010
- Old Birkonian Chapel Service – 11 am
- Buffet Lunch – 12:30 pm – Cost of £10 a head including a glass of wine
