Student Gathering - August 17, 2008

On August 17, we had our half-yearly's EchoMusic's Student Gathering.

(Yes it is September now and this is a very belated post, I am sorry! Haha.)

Backtracking, it was a night of fun and laughter, with performances from our very own students, in a warm and cozy place where there were great food and even lucky draw prizes to be won; but most importantly, the chance for students from our school who might have never seen or interacted with each other before to come together and have fun and mingle.

Kick-starting it all were the hosts for the night,


Wendy and Caleb.

Thank you Hefang, for being with us for so long.
:) We really appreciate it.

The student gathering would not have been made possible without the attendance of the students who came; and thanks also to the organizing committee for making this possible.

"I have my own particular sorrows, loves, delights; and you have yours. But sorrow, gladness, yearning, hope, love, belong to all of us, in all times and in all places. Music is the only means whereby we feel these emotions in their universality." ~H.A. Overstreet

Thanks for being a part of our musical journey...
