National Day Parade 2022 – Sign up today!

Dear Guiders,

It’s with great pleasure for us this year to invite the Guides to participate in the National Day Parade 2022 (NDP 2022) under the Parade & Ceremony (P&C) segment. NDP 2022 is a special year as we transit back to a physical parade.

The P&C segment would require 20 to 22 guides from the same school and GGS would like to collect interest from interested schools. However, if there are not enough Guides, Guiders may still indicate the number of Guides who are interested through the Google form.

Guiders may submit Company’s interest via https://forms.gle/zpRFWpA5zprdBfsA7 by 18 February 2022 (Friday), 11.59pm.

There will be an internal selection pending on updates from the P&C organizing team and we will contact the interested schools for the selection process. The parade requirements are as follow if selected:
