National Day Holiday

I was in the school at about 6:15am and it was early in morning, warming up and practicing some of the pieces before going to Tech Ghee Primary School where the National Day Observance is being held.

We played a few pieces such as The Soldier Song, The Colours of The Wind, The Olympic Fanfare (specially played for the Prime Minister), The Shriek Dance Party and lastly Tequila. The students, members and the parents were impressed and admired with our music even including our Principal, Vice-Principal and Teachers too.

The whole event ended at 11:00am and everyone went back to have deep sleep. The event was so good that there were positive opinions from the people. Overall, it marked an unforgettable day in my life.

National Day Celebration / Green Carnival Day (actual day of jumble sale)

On the eve of the National Day. Our school celebrates the National Day and Green Carnival Day which is our class’ jumble sale’s day. Our school band played tremendously with the help of our conductor Mr. Adrian Chiang. The two pieces that we played were “Pomp and Circumstance” and “National Anthem”. This is to celebrate Nation’s Birthday and to mark Singapore’s 42 years of independence.

Later of the day, the Green Carnival was officially opened and our class’ jumble sale was on. Some of the students came to our booth to buy the products. This went on until every items were sold.

The most interesting part of this event was the money matter. The money that we received was more than what we had targeted. And, we were very happy with the result and in the end, it was indeed a very good learning journey for all of us.

My class's preparation for jumble sale

I was excited to see my class being chosen to take part in jumble sale. And, I was very happy to see that I was being nominated to be the Logistic of my group. My group leader is Ho Zheng Feng and my members are my whole class.

The preparation went smoothly as we were planning. And, we used PowerPoint Presentation to present it to our Principal and Vice-Principal so that they can understand how our progress for the jumble sale goes on.

While the preparation goes on, the interesting part of this event is advertisement. Advertisement meant by advertising to the whole school about our class’ jumble sale.

Overall, I felt that the preparation for the jumble sale was good as we put our full commitment to it. And, I wished my class to continue this commitment even to the end.
