Dedicated to all Wanganui Girls' College Old Girls on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of the College celebrated in 1991. The dance was performed by eight Old Girls on Saturday 30 March 1991 at the "Nog 'n' Natter" held in the College Hall. The formations in the dance depict aspects of the badge of the Wanganui Girls' College Old Girls Association. The deviser wishes to acknowledge the use of the three couple half diagonal rights and lefts devised by Ian Barbour.
Table rows with a green background denote recordings starting with one of the recommended tunes and the usual number of repetitions for the dance (8). A yellow background means a recording with one of the recommended tunes but a non-standard number of repetitions. Recordings with a red background use a different tune and possibly a non-standard number of repetitions.
