To take into account social distancing protocols, we will be parading outside this year.
If you are attending, please spread out and stand behind the cones on Fernwood Oval (just behind the ELC).
Students will be seated in classes within the ELC grounds, and will exit out the back gate to parade on the oval when each class is called.
