Over 200 students, together with the school’s Pipes and Drums Band, led by Drum Major Ben Shorter marched the annual Parade along Whitehall today, for the start of the school’s Memorial Weekend. Dressed in their ceremonial Blues uniforms, the students marched to the Gordon statue in Victoria Embankment Gardens for a short service conducted by the school Chaplain, the Reverend Graham Wright. Wreaths were laid on the statue on behalf of the Gordon family, Gordonians and students and staff. Addressing the students afterwards, Mr Fox declared the parade to have been one of the best ever! Memorial Weekend continues on Sunday with the Gordon Memorial Service at Guildford Cathedral.
