The installation began with the arrival of the beloved guests from 12.45 p.m. to 1.00 p.m. As for the VIP’s, their time of arrival was from 1.00 p.m. to 1.20 p.m. As everyone in the hall waited patiently for the event, whispers were heard, people were chit-chatting, some were wondering who the incoming of directors were. By 1.20 p.m., the event finally began. The emcees, Teresa Tan and Margaret Lee, stepped up to the podium and gave us all a warm welcoming speech along with introducing themselves as the emcees for the day. The event began with a 9-minute video presentation by the Form 4’s. The video presentation included pictures of the outgoing band members, pictures of all the band members and group photos and a ‘thank you’ speech by the Form 4’s.Next, there were performances by the woodwind section, the band section and the junior percussion section. Their performances were amazing! Everyone was definitely impressed by their performances. After that, name tags for the junior band and the senior committee were given out. As each person from the band went up to receive their name tags, the crowd cheered. Later on, certificates were given out to the Form 5’s. As soon as that was done, a speech was given by the headmistress, Pn. Rita Shantini followed by two teacher advisors, Miss Rajeswari and Miss Boey Suet Boey. After their heart-warming speeches, it was time for the outgoing and incoming president, Jacklyn Liew and Dayana Liew to present their respective speeches. It was indeed a lovely installation.
