Celebrating Excellence: Colours Formal 2025 at Josephine Butler College

This evening brought together students, alumni, staff, and mentors to recognise those whose leadership, service, and spirit have made a lasting impact. From organising student events and mentoring peers to championing inclusion and supporting College life, the honourees exemplify the values that lie at the heart of Butler. 
 
With speeches, a celebratory dinner, and the presentation of College Colours and special awards, the evening served not only as a recognition of achievement but also as a celebration of the vibrant, supportive, and warm community that defines Josephine Butler College.
