Hey ppl

Next 2 weeks Dr Goh won't be coming in but there will be sectionals during the practice. So i will be asking Tang Xiao Ping laoshi to come down if possible. Please do attend the practice as usual unless you got valid reason. No reason like gathering will be accepted. If you are not coming, please tell me the earlier. Dr Goh is particular abt having sectionals, they will be monitoring the attendance and when are we having sectionals.

And please hand in the WMC and membership form to me latest by tmr. Cuz they will not be collecting it anymore.

Just a reminder that there is sectionals on this saturday at 11am. Attendance will be taken.

Hi everyone...

MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!

Haha... Hope you all enjoyed a wonderful christmas...

Anyway, the chalet will be from the 26th to 28th of December, which is Friday to Sunday. Reporting time is at 4pm, and please bring along some snacks or food too. It is at Downtown East. We will SMS the room number to you tomorrow. You all may want to meet somewhere first before going to the chalet, so there won't be any people that are missing.

There is also a change of plan on Monday's practice. Band practice will be from 6.30pm to 8.30pm. Then there will be orchestra practice from 8.30pm to 9.30pm.
