Speech day at Bearwood was quite different to the Abbotsleigh speech day held in the Sydney opera house. The day began with a chapel service in the Bearwood chapel then the crowd moved to the beautiful white marquee which was set up on the headmaster’s lawn. A trail of red carpet lead into the massive area filled with chairs and lit up by chandeliers. The day was a very well talked about and formal occasion; the dress code for the yr11/12 girls consisted of flowing dresses, extravagant hats, fascinators, high heals, wedges and beautiful colours. The excitement in the boarding house beforehand was some like getting ready for the year 10 formal- parading of the dresses, hat presentations, applications of fake tan and photos photos, photos. As you can see by the photo I went all out and wore a black floppy hat and I really did feel as though I was going to the Melbourne cup!
