The Arana View Club celebrated its silver jubilee with an afternoon of festivities yesterday.
Members and guests donned sparkles and silver to mark the occasion at the Arana Leagues Club, with James Lergessner and the Boom Baby band providing the entertainment.
The Arana VIEW (Voice, Interests and Education of Women) Club is part of a network of almost 300 clubs and more than 14,000 women throughout Australia.
VIEW, founded 60 years ago last year, is the largest community sponsor of students in The Smith Family Learning for Life program.
