Ceremony - do you need to memorize the affirmation ?

Hi everyone, I'm having my ceremony soon and in the instruction they say I will have to repeat the oath/affirmation.

Will I be allowed to bring a paper to read it out, or will I have to learn it by heart? I know someone there will read it out but concerned that I may not repeat precisely.

You are given the information you need at the ceremony. Nothing to "learn"!

For virtual ceremony, the registrar speaks first and you repeat after him/her. Nothing to memorise.
