00:00Over 100 students involved and they're representative of the School Spectacular, which is the flagship
00:06performing arts event for the department and it occurs in November every year and it's
00:11just an exhilarating time for them to be a part of something so special.
00:15Ocean wrote the song Follow Your Dreams for last year's School Spectacular, the theme
00:19for which was fabulous because of course we were 40.
00:22So he actually created that song as a way to say follow your dreams, you know, pursue
00:27your hopes and work hard and you can achieve it and the students took it on as a bit of
00:30an anthem.
00:31So it's since gained incredible success and we're delighted that we get to use it for
00:35this year's flash mob.
00:37So there is actually a spectacular festival that goes along with the School Spectacular
00:41so it's bigger than Ben Hur but as part of the festival we actually have a spontaneous
00:45flash mob that pops up and performs and that's a sample of that today and Ocean's song is
00:51being used for that purpose as well.
00:52So very, very thrilling for him, he can't believe it.
