Snow Ball 2023

For the first time since 2017, we are thrilled to again be hosting a gala ball!​

Headmistress Judith Poole and the St Catherine’s Foundation request the pleasure of your company at the Snow Ball.

​The Snow Ball will be held on Saturday 26 August 2023, from 6.30pm to 11pm in the Queen Elizabeth II Grandstand Ballroom, at the Australian Turf Club in Randwick.  The Dress Code is black tie.

There will be games, auctions, music, prizes and raffles alongside a stunning dining experience and beverage package. Pommery​ champagne is available for pre-purchase when booking your tickets, with champagne and cocktails available for purchase on the night. The auction catalogue and prize details will be released closer to the event.

Early bird tickets are available now and will be available until 23 June 2023.  Purchase your tickets and find out more information here. 

​This philanthropic event will support two important scholarship programs at St Catherine’s.
The first is our Indigenous Education Scholarship program, with St Catherine’s proud to play its part in closing the gap in Indigenous education. We currently have 21 Indigenous students at St Catherine’s, the majority of whom are on scholarships. To see how your donation will change the lives of our Indigenous students, please watch this video here.

The Foundation is also proud to support the Faith Patterson Scholarship, a means-tested scholarship for a student in Years 11 and 12. We are building a strong endowment to support this scholarship in perpetuity and to be able to expand its offerings. Your donation to the Scholarship Fund is fully tax-deductible and can be made here​.

We would also like to extend our sincere thanks to those organisations who have offered their generous sponsorship for this event.  

Thank you to our platinum sponsor Orthoboutique for their generous support of this event. OrthoBoutique is a specialist orthodontist for beautiful, confident and spectacular smiles, located in the heart of Sydney’s CBD.
