Grad Ball 2013: Nostalgia - Where It All Started

Just one more day and it's the Marist School Marikina High School Graduation Batch 2013. The 42nd Commencement Exercise on March 17, 2013 at 8am will be held at the New Marist Gymnasium. The Seniors are all excited, happy and at the same time sad. It marks the end of high school but the beginning of college life.

But wait, after graduation, there's still the Marist School Graduation Ball 2013. The seniors, rather the graduates can still get-together, party and have fun in this special occasion. The graduation ball entitled "Nostalgia: Where It All Started" will be held on March 21, 2013 at Ballroom A of the Crowne Plaza Manila  Galleria (beside the Robinson's Galleria Mall). Come early! Registration starts at 5:30pm. Photo booth sessions start at 6pm, choose from the two Photo Booths or try both. Have as many pictures as you want. Event proper starts at 7pm. There will also be two professional photographers and one videographer (of Jay Santos Photography) to cover the event.

This is the Ballroom A layout for the Marist School Graduation Ball:
