Educators’ Ball 2024 raises more than $15,000 for Backpacks 4 SA Kids

What an amazing night! More than 750 educators came together to celebrate their profession at the Convention Centre on Saturday. And wow – do educators know how to party! At the same time we are so excited about the funds we raised for Backpacks 4 SA Kids: Over $15,000 will go to this beautiful organisation that helps children and young people during periods of dislocation from home and routine care. You can see the winners of the raffle here. 

A huge thank you to everyone who joined us! The night was absolutely electric with amazing music, dancing and unforgettable moments. It was a celebration of the joy of being a member of the educator community. We also saw lots and lots of members of professional associations which it’s wonderful!

The Ball wouldn’t have happened without our sponsors. We are so grateful for the  support of our Platinum Sponsor Credit Union SA, University of Adelaide and the Department for Education, our Bronze Sponsors University of South Australia and Flinders University, and Art Cleaning Services who sponsored the Photo Booth and the Wine Wall.
