Malvern’s Red and Black Day parades school spirit

Malvern Collegiate students marched through the Beach and packed Birchmount Stadium for the school’s annual Red and Black Day on Friday, Oct. 9.

Despite a chilly fall wind and finding a tough rival in Lakeshore Collegiate during the varsity football game, Malvernites cheered and even managed to do the ‘wave’ as the girls field hockey, boys rugby sevens, girls rugby sevens and varsity football teams tested their mettle.

Backing them up were Malvern’s high-flying cheerleaders and heavy-drumming band. The band showed they were old hands at performing outdoors when a gust of wind lifted teacher Michael Falla’s sheet music in the air – each page was taped together in a long ribbon, just in case.
