From the desk of Dr Rod Kefford...
Dear Head Masters / Principals,
I am pleased to provide this Letter of Introduction for Mr Elliot Kleiner and his firm, Prom Night Events, with whom Barker College has had a close association for the past three years. This year Prom Night will host our Year 10, Year 11 and Year 12 formals.
Mr Kleiner’s firm specialises in organising, arranging and providing a variety of social functions for young people of secondary school age, and has achieved an enviable reputation for the quality service he provides to students, parents and school communities alike. Moreover, he is the Event Organiser of Choice for Sydney’s leading city hotels and functions venues, many of which simply do not, as a matter of policy, host social events for school-aged students.
Barker’s experience in working with Mr Kleiner and his staff over the past three years enables us to state without reservation that:
Prom Night Events has a 10-year history of successful experience with the planning and execution of Formals for secondary-school-aged young people.
Prom Night Events in Barker’s experience are enjoyable and appropriately “glamorous” occasions for all those who attend. Mr Kleiner and his staff have a clear understanding of the expectations of school and school communities such as ours.
Prom Night Events has proven to us that it has effective and efficient systems for planning and running events such as these, and their staff members in each area of their organisation are appropriately trained and experienced.
Prom Night Events guarantees that its functions are conducted in full compliance with N.S.W. laws regarding Minors and Security. This includes protection against students bringing alcohol or other substances into the venue, as well as effectively and appropriately excluding uninvited people and preventing inappropriate or disruptive behaviour.
Prom Night Events provides Insurance Certification indicating up to $60,000,000.00 worth of comprehensive insurance cover on every event.
Prom Night Events special School Formal packages contain inclusions and features sought by young people these days, and yet in our experience they also offer best value for money relative to other providers, or even for school-initiated and school-managed functions.
An attractive feature of our relationship with Prom Night Events is their active involvement in fundraising for a wide variety of charity organisations. Prom Night seeks to promote the involvement of schools in those kinds of activities and supports Student Councils and leadership groups by rebating a percentage of profits back to schools for their own charity work.
Prom Night Events offers significant discounts for attending teachers, and Principals and their partners are invited to attend formals at no cost.
Our experience in working with Prom Night has been entirely satisfactory from every possible point of view. I would be happy to share details of our experience with you personally if you would like to speak to me about it.
With all good wishes
Yours sincerely
Roderic Kefford
