Holiday Concert 2014 (Gabriel's)



“ Playing with the Music ”

 On 11th December 2014, the Junior High School students held their Holiday Concert in the Auditorium. There were many singing groups from Grade 7 and Grade 8. Each of the group sang different songs. My group, consists of Angie, Kishella, Audrey L, Sulie, Natania, Fayola and me. My group brought the “ Thousand Years “ song. 

The guests sat in front of us. While we performed the music, the guests ate their lunch. They clapped their hands after each of the group perform. They also took pictures and recorded videos of us. 

Our group felt very excited after the show. Our group did the best for our first concert. We were very glad that day! Grade 7 students also prepared the class party on that day.

Last Concert in 2014

The second last day before the holiday, 11 December 2014. It was the christmas concert where th students sung and played some instruments. Many parents came, the primary students watched us, a little café in the audotarium that day. Many students who performed were nervous that day.

The students who performed were 23 students from grade 7 and some students from grade 8. There were 2 Mcs, each from junior high. They were holding a paper, which was the arrangment of the concert. My group performed second. It was a heart-beating moment when we performed.

After the first session, the student who performed in the first session must serve and help the primary students and some parents who came to watch us. It was a good day. The other groups’ performance were fascinating. The concert ended at the afternoon. It was a little nervous when we performed, but we were relieved when the perforamance ended.
