Activities & Competitions (2021)
SYF Arts Presentation 2021On 12 April 2021, the Jurong West Concert Band (JWCB) participated in the annual Singapore Youth Festival (SYF) Arts Presentation. This was the event of the year for all Performing Arts CCAs as they had the opportunity to showcase their talents. After many gruelling months of practice compounded by the difficulties put forth by the COVID-19 pandemic, the JWCB overcame all odds to put on their best performance of the year which was a rendition of Aston Overture. Having to receive feedback virtually and practise without their fellow bandmates, this was an event that built resilience and adaptability in the JWCB students. Despite these challenges, the JWCB managed to secure a Certificate of Accomplishment for their hard work |

| Selected students from the choir participated in the Winter Choral Festival, where they had the opportunity to work with esteemed conductors during workshops and perform before a panel of judges in the competition segment. The students learnt a lot from the festival, and enjoyed interacting with choirs from a myriad of countries. The highlight of the trip for many students was performing a catchy repertoire of pieces in Hong Kong Disneyland itself! | |
