On 22 September 2026, HS Parel Vallei official High School celebrated its Matric Farewell at the historic Stellenbosch Town Hall with Ch*****ne in Shadows - an evening of sophistication, glamour and timeless elegance. Inspired by after-hours luxury, the venue was transformed with deep midnight blues, ch*****ne gold accents, flowing drapery, ambient lighting and luxurious textures, creating an intimate yet captivating atmosphere.✨

From a grand red-carpet arrival and beautifully curated lounge spaces to a vibrant dance floor, every detail was designed to create lasting memories. Interactive experiences, including a photobooth, gourmet popcorn bar, instant Polaroids and surprise performances, added to the magic of the evening. More than a farewell, it was a celebration of friendships, milestones and exciting new beginnings. ✨🥂
