This Friday, 4 October, the senior students of the Burdekin region will dazzle and shine as they ignite the atmosphere at the Burdekin Memorial Hall with gorgeous gowns and suave suits at the 2024 Home Hill Harvest Festival Students’ Ball.
An unforgettable evening, the Burdekin Memorial Hall will host a night filled with elegance, excitement and community spirit, bringing together students in years 10 to 12 from across the Burdekin district from 6pm to 11pm to enjoy plenty of social dancing, and making fantastic memories.
Each year the Home Hill Harvest Festival, in conjunction with the staff and P&C Committee of Home Hill State High School come together to organise one of the most anticipated events on the region’s calendar.
A beloved Burdekin tradition, the Students’ Ball Red Carpet will be ready to stage the glamorous arrivals from 6:15pm outside the Burdekin Memorial Hall in Home Hill, with the community invited to come along to watch the students arrive. The arrivals will also be livestreamed from 6:15pm on the Home Hill State High School Facebook page for those wishing to watch from home.
In an exciting announcement made earlier last month, the 2024 Home Hill Harvest Festival Students’ Ball will see James and Brittney Tamou join the judging panel, with many prizes set to be awarded to the Belle and Beau of the Ball, Best Dressed Couple, Sass, Swagger, Runner Ups and more.
James Tamou made his NRL debut with the North Queensland Cowboys in 2009 and made history as an integral member of the North Queensland’s historic maiden premiership in 2015.
With Brittney’s extensive background in the fashion industry, the pair’s attendance has fostered a wave of excitement across the region, with the Home Hill Harvest Festival Committee more than eager to welcome the pair to become a part of the iconic event.
“We are thrilled to announce that James and Brittney Tamou will be joining our judging panel for the evening,” shared Home Hill Harvest Festival Secretary Carlene Muilwyk.
“Their presence adds an extra sparkle to what promises to be an extraordinary event.”
Ashely Guy, a former Home Hill Harvest Festival Students’ Ball Belle will also be joining the judging panel for Friday’s event, and combining the talents and expertise of Ashley, James and Brittney, this year’s presentations are certainly set to impress.
“We are so excited to announce our 2024 judges,” shared Home Hill State High School teacher, Danielle Chappell.
“Brittney has an amazing fashion background which we are really excited for, and we were so absolutely stoked when she said she’d bring James along too.”
In keeping with the 2024 theme of the Home Hill Harvest Festival, Our Town, the Students’ Ball is set to stage an exquisite atmosphere and wonderful decorations to showcase the beauty and magic of “black snow, and liquid gold” that is the bountiful Burdekin.
The Hall will be adorned with an array of green, black and gold decorations, with sugar cane cuttings incorporated throughout the venue setting the scene for a wonderful night.
Home Hill State High School’s staff, students and P&C Committee along with the Home Hill Harvest Festival Committee and Queens, have been working tirelessly over the past couple of months to pull the event together, and cannot wait to see the community come together for the Red Carpet arrivals.
“We are really blessed with our local businesses and the support they have given us, and as a teacher, I am so thankful to the tireless efforts from all our staff, and the P&C as they have gone above and beyond for our students so that they can have this amazing opportunity each year,” added Danielle Chappell.
