School Discos and Formal Balls

We cater for end of term school discos and formal balls for primary and secondary schools around Wellington and have built up a good reputation for creating a great atmosphere and keeping young people entertained. 

Ultimately the music creates the environment and tone of any party and it will make or break whether your school ball is a success.  To ensure the success of your school party and a great night had by all, you are wise to put the music in the hands of a trained professional. 

Disco@Paradise DJs have lots of experience with school parties for all ages from 5 to 18 year olds and we know how to create a great party.  We always create a fun time to meet the needs of all age groups, so that everyone enjoys themselves.  We consistently receive very positive feedback about our ability to entertain the crowds and get everyone up dancing.  We’ve received a standing ovation from a group of primary students – that’s how much fun they had.  Have a look at some of our other recent school party testimonials.

What Disco@Paradise offers for your school party or formal ball:

1. Discussions with the organiser to confirm your school ball needs, themes and details and ensure timely set up.
2. Music for dancing, typically from 5pm to 9pm for primary schools and 7pm to midnight/1am for secondary discos and balls – we can work in with timing your party needs.
3. We enjoy running dance competitions and hand out prizes for the best dressed – we find that young ones especially are strongly motivated by the thought of winning chocolate!
4. We offer a range of top quality sound equipment matched to your venue.
5. Professional lighting which adds atmosphere without being over the top.
6. The option of showing photos and playing music videos on a projector screen (at an additional cost).
7. The option of karaoke by request (at an additional cost).

6. We are open to music requests from the crowd and ensure that they fit in with the flow of the music without clearing the floor.
