an assembly of everyone in the school, usually once or twice a week. Commonly held outside: I'm going to be late for school and we've got parade this morning! Compare assembly.
Contributor's comments: [Adelaide informant] At my school, this was "assembly".
Contributor's comments: During my school days in Brisbane, a parade of the entire school was held EVERY morning before classes commenced.
Contributor's comments: [Brisbane informant] "Parade" is exclusively outside (ie. on the parade-ground), while assembly is an indoor gathering of the school. Parade is likely to occur at primary school rather than high school.
