Brisbane’s Mary MacKillop college asked students to submit photos of the dresses they planned to wear to the school formal. Last modified on Tue 31 May 2022 10.55 BSTstudent says her school asked girls to submit photos of their formal dresses for “approval” after giving them an “outdated” booklet outlining the event’s dress code.

The student alleged if dresses weren’t approved by the Catholic girls’ school “they needed to be changed” in the days leading up to the formal “even if money was spent on another dress”.Read more A page from a booklet Mary MacKillop college gave to students in which it said that ‘plunging or revealing necklines and backs, like the ones pictured, ‘were not appropriate formal attire’.the Mary MacKillop college formal was an “outstanding success” with “Year 12 students gathering for their celebratory evening both beautifully dressed and beautifully behaved.”

The booklet also said “adherence to the dress code is essential” and the college “reserves the right to ask students and their guests to make amendments to their attire prior to the night and … on the night of the formal.”A former student said a similar booklet had been given out before last year’s formal, with the dress code enforced strictly on the night, which resulted in some students having “a few issues getting their dresses approved due to cleavage”.

Catholic girls are hungry beasts.

Hilarious 😵‍💫 Not🤦🏻‍♀️ Back in the 70s, the Catholic school girls were so out there rebellious with 'revealing' dress style. And swearing like drunken fools in public. Our public school group of similar age didn't feel that 'need' - found that acting out quite bizarre. 😲

And?

Is that after their school got double than the nearest public school? From secular taxpayers? AustralianLabor ? .... As a truck driver, the difference in funding is apparent.
