Putrajaya, here we come ( 19th, 20th june )

It was a glorious chance for the band to step into Putrajaya International Convention Centre ( PICC ) for the final round of wind orchestra competition 2009. The building and hall amazed us, with its deluxe look. The hall, was well decorated. We had our rehersal session until late evening. And thankfully, we had our very plentiful and rich buffet as dinner at Terrace Cafe of a hotel. The next day, which was the competition day. Although we were not the champion team, but we believed that every team was the twinkling star on the stage.

Ending always mean for the next starting.
So never give up and move forward. Goodbye PICC~

Pictures speak more than words, enjoy these photo:

Wind orchestra 2009

We shone in the wind orchestra competition at Kuantan, Pahang again. With the bless from everyone, we finally got the gold medal and manage to go into the final, bringing back glory for the school and the chinese. Throughout the four days, we experienced sort of life style like artist. Sleep, eat, change clothes in the bus and rush here and there. Although there might be some troubles in this trip and sometimes we were forced to do things in a hurry, but still we enjoyed ourselves very much. We spent happy, excting moment together, and managed to perform our best. All our hard work had been paid off. And very thankfully, we got the chance to relax after the competition at the beach - Teluk Cempedak. Everybody play happily and be able to relieve our stress in front of the sea.Last but not least, thanks to teachers and ex who help us a lots in the trip.
Now, just want to share some videos and photos. Enjoy ya!

Memorable. Band camp

Passing Out Parade Camp ~ 5th -9th Dec

I would not like to mention much about the first three days. Just usual practice and section presentation at night.

Day4
Farewell night
All form 3's members will be in charge of it. The farewell party starts with games. Although the games burn up some anger, let just treat it as sparks. Well the performances are interesting and jocular. Simulation of Kai Ning, Fiona and Kar Mun, our Miss World and so on. Sum Xin Ying, you're talented. Everyone can't stop laughing. And we do enjoy and feel impressed with it.
After buffet, it was something about sharing among Form5s. Every single moment we suffer, we fight, we laugh, we cheer, we scream, we cry, we play together, these memories will never wipe away from our heart. Even through life in band might be hard, but we encounter countless hardships together.


Tears show love, friendship and companionship deep inside our heart, it's so precious.

Form5s, thanks for your contribution and sacrifice. We appreciate it.



Day5
Passing Out Parade
Around 8am in the morning, preparation for the POP held at night starts. Everyone get their duties and start their work. Then, we have a little exchange session with our guest from Singapore and final rehersal for the concert. In the afternoon, 16 groups having ensemble presentation and only 6 groups are chosen to perform at night.
The concert includes :
- Ensemble
- Junior band
- Senior band



The POP night draws a great success. Thanks for anyone who work throughout the camp. And a big thank you to coach, teachers, parents and Form5s.
Very soon, the camp ends. But our love and friendship will never end, we gonna miss you all much. Our memories are priceless treasure, so always flash back and remember us.
And last but not least, we will remember all that you say and do our best to make the band shines more and more.
Form5s, Good Luck and All the Best in the future!
