Hey people!!!
The next band practice is this coming friday (10/2/12) from 2.30pm to 6.00pm.
Please try to be more friendly towards the sec 1s as they are still new to the band and try to be their friends ok??...
Make sure that you are a good role model to the new sec 1s and have discipline in yourself, don't wait until we punish you then you start observing discipline...
Be punctual for ALL practices and come 30mins after your lesson end if you have not eaten lunch yet, or else please come directly after whatever programme you have earlier. Thanks :D
