The third annual competition was held at the Peace Memorial Hall on Wednesday, November 11, 2009, under the theme âMusic in Me.â
The competition featured musical performances which included solos, choir performances and instrumental performances.
The students displayed talent and creativity in their performances, while the assembly of students roared with gratitude, supporting their respective houses.
One of the popular items was the Woodroofe House choirâs rendition of âThe Lion Sleeps Tonightâ, in which the students decorated the stage with two dimensional animal cut outs. Other performances in that category saw students from Pigott and Jackson houses singing with animal-like facial decorations, while Pigott House students swayed and sang around a âsleeping lionâ.
During the competition, students also paid tribute to Bishop Leopold Friday who was serenaded with the âHappy Birthdayâ song as it was his birthday. The music day competition was also attended by past principal Joy Cato and members of the Board of the school.(OS)
