JUNIOR BAND FESTIVAL - VICTORIA CONCERT HALL
 
Our Secondary 1 and 2 students from the Junior Band had the opportunity to perform at the renowned Victoria Concert Hall as part of the Junior Band Festival on 12th Aug 2007. It was an excellent platform for performance exposure as it was the very first time the Sec 1 students played in front of a large audience! Well done!
