We love you, we would never be able to do it ourselves.

We may have won the coveted cup, after waiting for 8 years, a young band we might be, but with passion and dedication we have proved that we can do it. Now, we will strive harder to keep the Treble Clef Cup at our school for the longest time possible. We might succeed, we might not, but let it be known to all that we are not a quiter. So, to the contestant of next year SBP WOC, practice hard because we are not letting go of the cup easily.

Now, we are looking forward to embark on our next journey to the neighbouring country, we will be at the Singapore International Band Festival from 18th to 21st July 2012. Pitted against a long list of orchestra players from few countries, it will be chalenging, but without doubt, we promise to give out our best. Pray for us....
