and remember to bring dark colored tee, band tee, towel and slippers as everyone will be getting wet! yall can change straight after the whole national day ceremony thing. this is how the shift will go:

each shift will have 2 doing mobile booth, 2 doing coupons at the store itself, and the remaining will mann the booth.(we’ll tell you who do what when yall come for duty:) )

Mobile booth one will have to hold the advertising board as well as a clipboard, the other will hold the coupon collection box. The clipboard will have a few sheets of paper each page with one dunking teacher’s name, if someone is getting a particular teacher dunked, eg Ms Lim and she pays $4, then you strike 4 ticks on the paper and collect her coupon! and the mobile booth returns to the booth EVERY 30 MIN to collate the $. the same goes for the 2 doing coupons at the store itself just that yall are not advertising around the compound. so there’ll be 2 coupon collection boxes in total try to get more of your friends to come!!

those manning the booth will also get wet even if yall are not dunking cos the water will displace out the container! so rmb your dark color tee. any one who bring their friends/choose to dunk any band girl on duty pay a min of $4. For teachers(sec and pri) they set a target for the kids alr all you have to do is to inform the DJ BOOTH and INFOCOMM when the price stated for the respective teachers is gonna reach! and make sure its safe, nicole will brief yall again tmr 🙂 and rmb to put the rugs!  

 

yep thats about it any questions and stuff you can text me! sorry for this super super long post/: just have fun and be safe 🙂

Band uniform

Hey blues!

Below are the sizes and orders for your band uniforms and blouses, do check them and make sure they are correct!

Please do not change of sizes after school reopens and if you all wants to change the sizes or anything message Xue Yan! 🙂

You’ll need to buy the band shoes and socks by yourself, it is being sold at BATA. The shoes are priced at $50? You can ask the shop attendence for ‘marching shoes’ and make sure that theres a smiley face at the bottom:)The socks is the one with the gray bottom and it should NOT be ankle socks! It should cost about $2.

 

REMINDER: the full brand new uniform costs $90, with the blazer and the skirt. The blouse price is still unconfirmed and if you buy from seniors, it costs $50 and free if you’re renting:)

Do bring the money with you on the first band practice after school reopens! Thanks:D

If everyone is moving forward together, then success takes care of itself

Hello dear juniors,

I know most of you are disappointed with the results today, but it’s over and there’s nothing we can do to change it right now. So instead of being overly depressed over it, why not put it behind us and look forward to what we can do?

Take yesterday as a lesson and also a wake-up call. Like I told all of you on Friday, SYF is just approximately seven months away. If all of you work and move towards that goal together, I’m sure y’all will improve a lot. Listen to the recording from the post below, pick up your mistakes and improve from them 🙂 If y’all need the password, you can ask your SLs for it.

Also, band isn’t just about competitions and performances, there are so many other things that we have forgotten, in particular, the friendships and bonds formed. It’s what we’ll bring with us through the rest of our lives 🙂

Besides, no award can define us!

And lastly, never give up (despite the countless times I’ve said this)
It’s not the end, it’s just the beginning 🙂

KEEP GOING 😀

JIAYOU FOR NBC!

Hey dearest bandits,

Time has passed so quickly and now it’s the juniors turn to take part in NBC and very soon, SYF. I know that all of you might be facing tremendous stress and pressure right now, feeling worried and anxious about your performance tomorrow. However, confidence is the key! I remembered how everyone was very nervous two years ago and we didn’t manage to play our best on stage. Nevertheless, we worked hard and did our best in practising the pieces. Similarly, I hope that all of you will give your best for NBC tomorrow. Do not let your fear of playing affect your performance on stage. Smile and play your best, taking note of what you have practised during combined. Don’t forget to watch Ms Sia as well!

Lastly, I hope that you would learn that the journey is more important than the destination. Seeing the band members practising during recess is definitely heartwarming. We are proud of all of you for trying so hard and for putting so much effort. No matter what the results are, keep working hard towards our bigger goal – SYF 2013!

Sleep early tonight and I know that SNSB will put up a spectacular performance tomorrow! SNSB bravo! ❤
Love
Valery
