Caledonian Society Ball 2025 

Girls and boys enjoying the ball.

At Wycombe Abbey, we believe in fostering a well-rounded educational experience that extends beyond the classroom. Throughout the year, we host a variety of social events and collaborations with different boys’ schools, providing our girls with opportunities to develop social skills, build meaningful connections and participate in exciting, shared experiences.

The Caledonian Society Ball, held earlier this month, was a delightful evening that brought together our pupils and those from Eton College. Guests enjoyed a traditional address to the haggis, followed by a buffet and lively ceilidh dancing to the music of the Craigievar Ceilidh Band. Both staff and pupils had a fantastic time, with highlights including spirited performances of Dashing White Sergeant, The Eightsome Reel, and The Gay Gordons. The evening concluded with everyone joining hands to sing Auld Lang Syne, marking a memorable end to a wonderful event.  

Special thanks to Felicity (UVI), Nancy (UVI) and Margot (LVI) for their leadership of the society this year.
