International Day Reflection

The International day was a success as usual! Tasty food from different cultures, interesting activities for the kids and as a grand finale, a great concert as a cherry on the top.

My contribution for the International day regarding organisation was to set up the school hall for the concert with other students and staff. We were planning the way how should the performing stage be set; set the stage; and brought the drums and the piano on it. We were also carrying things essential for the concert to the hall e.g. speakers and drums. Doing this could count up as service - as we were collaboratively working together as a team to make sure that The International day can be made possible.

From a creative perspective of cas, me, Ho Geon and Yarubbi performed a modified version of Emeli Sande's 'Breaking The Law' in the concert. Our frequent and intense practice sessions allowed us to be well prepared for the performance so that we could minimise the amount of mistakes. However as mentioned in the plan post, we weren't sure if the quality of the performance would deteriorate when we are plugged in to speaker. This wasnt the case aftyer all as everything went better than expected. Thanks to the practice sessions, we were able to make a nice show. We wanted to create a peaceful and united atmosphere by sitting on chairs instead of standing while performing :-)

If we were to perform again, we could have more instruments to be played in the band such as the piano, bass, or even a xylophone. So that the performance could be filled with even more melodious harmony.
