Annual School Parade · 2026
Loading...
In 2015, the students at St. John’s College, Panadura, decided they needed a more effective way to showcase their school spirit. That was the birth of the Johnian Eagle Parade (JEP). What started as a small student project has now become the defining tradition of the college, capturing exactly what it means to be part of the Johnian community.
People often see JEP as just a line of vehicles, but it is actually much more than that. It is a massive showcase of what happens when students combine their creativity with real leadership. Every year, the brotherhood comes together to represent their alma mater with a level of discipline and innovation that is hard to match.
JEP is the ultimate proof that tradition and progress can coexist and move forward simultaneously. It serves as a powerful reminder that when Johnians unite, they do so with a clear vision and a deep loyalty to the history of the school. It is about moving forward as one family with strength and pride.
