Guidelines
- If you are going to be in school, please inform the Top 4 what time, what date and how many people will be coming. We will then in turn tell the teachers.
- Meeting times be between 9am to 4pm due to safety reasons.
- If you would like to claim money, please remember to give your receipts to Zhang Di. If you have multiple receipts for claiming, please staple them neatly on an A4 piece of paper.
SLs, you will also need to prepare and fix an unused instrument for the new Sec 1s (red badges) to try on CCA fair day.
And to the rest of the band, please remember to get ready your uniform before the CCA fair, if you have lost your ribbons, please tell the WOs as soon as possible. Because of the move to this school, it would really be a lot more inconvenient to only get your ribbons on the day itself. And do be reminded that the band uniform consists of band badge as well.
Also, remember to practice your instruments as well. If you have not, please come back and get it. If you still cannot come back and get it, at least flip through your scores, learn it and do breathing exercises at home.
Opening of the band room during the holidays
The band room will be opened from 10am next Monday, 7 Dec. Please message me if you are coming on that day.
If you need to open the doors when you are meeting for the CCA fair arrangements, please notify us.
Other Issues
We have recently moved here and even had 2 band practices over at the holding site. Let’s not think about what we can’t do here but what we CAN do here. The ability to play does not lie in where we are, but it is in us. It doesn’t matter where we are for us to play well, don’t let the fact we have moved affect us.
Thinking negatively won’t change a thing. Thinking about what we can’t do here cannot change a thing. But if we think positively, think of what we can achieve, what we can do here, many things can change for the better.
Let’s set aside the negative mindset and just try. Everyone has to try together because we are one band. Let’s try to understand one another, let’s learn to give and take. Sometimes, it’s hard to understand why certain decisions are made or why you have to do something. But everything happens for a reason, decisions aren’t made to make your life difficult.
So let’s stay positive throughout our 2 year stay here. Everything will be okay in the end. If it’s not, it’s not the end.
Thanks,
Grace
