ELLON Academy hosted their annual major fundraiser at the weekend.
The Academy’s Evening Of Entertainment sees pupils take on various roles including waiting tables, welcoming guests and manning stalls while a stellar line up of entertainment is enjoyed by guests with a two course meal.
This year’s event was hosted by ex-pupil Gregor Davidson, a familiar voice to many in the area through his work on Northsound.
The line-up included singing, dancing, musicians and drama performances.
Guests were piped into the event by pupil Josh Cantlay and pianists Marie McEwan and Ashley Grant provided pre-dinner entertainment inside.
Violinist Katie Jones entertained on the stage later in the evening.
There were a number of vocalists displaying their talents for the crowded hall, including Amy Lawrence, Niamh Martin, Ethan Lumsden and Jordan Abberly-Nicol.
Solo dancers Amy Robertson, Lucy Connor and Carla Clark all did their bit as well as a group of senior school dancers.
There was also a performance from a squad of senior school cheerleaders keeping spirits high.
Diverting from the traditional music-based entertainment four senior pupils – Jan Cudak, Toby Maddams, Lewis Gray and Christian Naude – put their drama talents to good use to perform a short sketch which they called The Bouncers.
The organisers have not yet finalised the total raised on the evening, however the money raised benefits pupils through a number of projects.
