School Holiday Course – Graduation catwalk show
The graduation catwalk show takes place on the final day of the course on the Friday evening. The show is a fitting finale to the whole week with the audience consisting of family and friends. Everything that the students have learnt and experienced throughout the week is put into practice on the Friday evening.
The students do their own hair and make up for the show and wear 4 different outfits of their own. There are 5 sections to the graduation show and the choreography is mostly done by the students, with help on hand from our experienced teachers.
Friday is mainly spent reflecting on the whole week, experiencing a fashion shoot and dress rehearsals. The students have a ball! The main emphasis of the graduation show is not on the student’s clothes or how they look, but about demonstrating their increased confidence.
“The students are always nervous and shy at the beginning of the week, but for me to see their transformation by the Friday evening on the catwalk, oozing confidence with big smiles, makes my job worthwhile! It’s such great job satisfaction for me, and I am always emotional every graduation show”
says Donna, the Director of Polished by Donna.
