Leave Forms

Hi people,

This is just a reminder. The leave forms sytem will continue to be in place, so please submit your leave forms to me if you'll be absent or late for trainings. You still have to submit your leave forms to me for your attendance to be marked as "absent with valid reason"/"late with valid reason", even after you've already smsed me or told me to inform me that you would not be present.

Sorry if I sound anal and stuff, but I hope you guys understand this is all part of the Standard Operating Procedures and there is definitely a need to maintain it.

Anyhow, thanks for being responsible enough to keep me informed about your attendance via the sms-ing and stuff, but from now on, please remember the leave forms as well, if you havent already been doing so. Thank you! :)

Guitar outing!

Hello! It's Gloria here to update everyone on the upcoming guitar outing.

Ok, it's not that soon.

As we announced in the last guitar practice, there will be a chalet on 5 to 7 Jan. 3 Days 2 Nights. It'll be held at Aloha Changi and everyone will be assumed to be going (thus having to chip in cash) unless you tell Tricia beforehand that you're not going for certain reasons. As Zhiying said, it's on an opt-out basis for the J1s.

Just some details, but they're not confirmed yet...The second night will be a barbeque, so you're welcome to bring lots of food but there should be food prepared already by our chalet subcomm. Yup. And all the guitar seniors are invited, no matter how many batches before! It's a good time to get to know your juniors, no?

Also, there is the possibility of another cca outing before the chalet...Haha, I like the Kbox idea Kyna. But isn't it kind of expensive? Anyway, do throw out ideas, opinions and suggestions on cca outings!

Ok, that's all. Everything will be confirmed soon hopefully. Good luck on your promo results everyone! And jiayou to our seniors.

-Gloria

Training schedule for next week

Hi all!

Thanks to all for your efforts in Open House! Though we're still kinda 'unheard' but we've already tried our best so let's give ourselves a pat on our shoulders and continue to work hard.

Some of you may have heard about performing in the high school arts fest, but they've called it off due to poor reception. However, we'll still need to work on our SYF!

So, training will resume next week. To minimise waiting time for guitar practice, we've scheduled the guitar practice earlier in the afternoon so that you guys won't have to stay back too late. The training timings are scheduled as such:

Wednesday: 2.30 pm - 4.30 pm
Thursday: 2.00 pm - 4.00 pm

Well.. we've shifted friday's training to thurs because of Prof Yang's Book Launch and the checking of GP papers that extend till 3.30 late in the afternoon, while we can start at 2pm on thursday.

Jia you for your PWs! Cya

Open House Rehearsal

Hi!

Open House's on October 10, and everyone will be involved!

There will be 2 rounds of performance in the central plaza, one in the morning and one in the afternoon. We'll be playing Star Wars and 13 days in France, so pick up your guitars now that the dreaded promos are over lol.

We'll be uploading the seating plan soon.

Everyone will also be required to man the booth, which is a class bench in the left wing, near the entrance of the audi. We'll be uploading the shift charts after we get the specific timings of the performances. If you're in a timeslot that you're not available, you can find someone to switch, but please inform us of the changes!

Things to note:
1. There will be a rehearsal, on wednesday after sabbaticals. We'll have to go back to school after our sabbaticals. It's a little rush, but please understand that the council has no other days for the rehearsal. The timing is still not confirmed, but it will be in the late afternoon.
2. We may need to have a practice session on thursday for polishing. This will be confirmed at a later date.

Yup! Congrats promo's over. Check back for updates!
