Myrtleford P-12 College's stadium was full of colourful characters as staff, students and their family members gathered to witness this year's Book Week parade last Friday.

Class by class, students circled the catwalk in the centre of the basketball court and showed off their creative costumes.

Among the day's special guests were several Pharaohs, Darth Vader, butterflies, dragons, superheroes and even an earth-mover.

The parade was able to showcase almost the whole school, as many students in the high-school grades also joined in the festivities.

Those students with younger siblings were invited to do a lap of the catwalk together to show off their costumes as well, before staff and teachers made their own way around the basketball court.

Education support and library officer, Kathleen Morgan, who dressed up as something different each day of Book Week, said it was great to see families watching the parade and joining in the fun.

"What a fun way to finish the week full of book-based activities, craft and competitions," she said.

"Some of our teachers, education support staff and our school principal Zlatko Pear, coordinated to recreate the Addams Family, while our office team became Inside Out characters."

With all costumes reviewed and appreciated, the assembly was dismissed, with a reminder to check out the second-hand book sale on in the library for the day.
