39th Annual SPHS Fashion Show – The Sweet Soirée
The St. Paul’s High School Class of 2026 is proud to present The Sweet Soirée, the 39th Annual Fashion Show on Monday, March 23, 2026 at the Victoria Inn & Conference Centre. This event promotes the latest fashions from local retailers in coordination with Swish Modelling Agency and includes auctions and raffles with prizes from local businesses. Student volunteers create a lively and entertaining show in support of the Magis Fund, a fund that provides financial assistance to students who require assistance to ensure they can be full participants in school life.
Sponsorships are now available at Sponsor Checkout - St Paul's High School
The Fashion Show Committee is also soliciting prize donations for Live, Silent or Rainbow Auctions. For your donation, you/your business will receive recognition on signage at the event, and have your brand in front of parents, alumni, and local business owners.
Contact Kerri J. Moore, Head of Advancement at kjmoore@stpauls.mb.ca or 204-831-2325 for more information about sponsorship opportunities and prize donations.
Although the event showcases the grade 12 boys, parents of all grades are encouraged to attend. Consider gathering your friends together for a fun night out. If you don't know a lot of parents from the school community, let us know what grade your son is in when you purchase your ticket and we will do our best to seat you with other parents from the same grade. This event is a great opportunity to meet the parents of your son’s friends.
Tickets for the event are now available at Checkout - St Paul's High School
If you can’t attend but would still like to support the Magis Fund, you could also consider a monetary donation to be used by the committee to purchase silent auction prizes.
Your support goes towards ensuring all our sons can have the best possible high school experience at St. Paul's.
