Celebrate with us 30 years since the founding of The Mount Junior School!
2021-2022 marks 30 years since The Mount Junior School, then known as Tregelles, was first founded. To mark the occasion, an organising committee of parent volunteers are arranging the first-ever Tregelles Ball. The ball will take place on Saturday 2nd of July at The Mount, tickets are on sale now and close on Friday 3rd June.
We hope to welcome current parents, old scholars, past parents and the greater Yorkshire community to celebrate with us. Please note that the Ball is for over-18s only and is not for current pupils.
Revellers can look forward to a wonderful evening of conviviality. A refreshing welcome drink on the lawns, a mouth-watering three-course meal provided by award-winning specialist event caterers Purple Chilli and dancing to live music by popular band, Crazy Horses with carriages at 12.30am. Our specialist Gin and Cocktail Bar offers two cocktails for £12.
“The Tregelles Ball is a fantastic opportunity for the adults of our School community, Friends of The Mount and their friends to celebrate with us. Our wonderful organising committee has put together an event that will be fondly remembered for many years to come.”
David Griffiths, Principal
