The Bull-Dust Gala Luncheon
The Heritage Grill at Beef Central
12.00noon Wednesday, 9 May 2012
Tickets $60

The Bull-Dust Gala Luncheon brings together a range of high profile speakers under the leadership of internationally acclaimed poet and MC Rupert McCall who will engage and enthral the many guests expected for this celebration of country life.

Few can capture the essence of our country and its heroes like Rupert McCall and his popularity transcends all demographics and ages. Rupert is a passionate Australian and his ability to share this enthusiasm will captivate and inspire our guests for years to come.

This Bull-Dust Gala Luncheon also acts as the launch pad for the Nudgee College Herd. We are asking cattle owners to donate a heifer or cow to the Nudgee College Herd, retained on their property, with the sale proceeds of any progeny going direct to the Jack Ross Bursary – Country Boarding Bursary Program. The bursary program provides financial support to families from the bush whose son/s may not otherwise have the opportunity to benefit from an education within the environment offered by Nudgee College.

The event is open to all comers in particular Nudgee College Old Boys, past parents, current families and friends of the wider Nudgee College community.  Click here to book your tickets.
