SIX debutantes and their partners had a wonderful time at the City Council's Civic Ball last Friday night.

Summa Bleakley and Tyler Green, Nevaeh Bates and Kade Edwards, Miah-Page Haugum and Kobe Draper, Vanessa Miller and Lachlan Glasson, Eliza O'Neil and James Cecchin, and Jakora Paulson and Navik Liyanage wowed family and friends at the event.

The Civic Ball is one of the longest-running debutante balls in Australia.

"This is such a wonderful tradition for Broken Hill, and always makes for a spectacular and elegant event for debutantes and their families and friends," Mayor Tom Kennedy said.

"We always get a great mix of entrants - from young ladies who are the first of their family to make a debut, through to participants who are following on a family tradition from their mother or grandmother.

"It really is an occasion for the whole family and can provide memories for generations."

Dance co-ordinator Gemma Murray put the teenagers through their paces with a Waltz, Cha-Cha and the traditional parent dance.
