Small Orchestra at Baayan Elementary school


Sep. 19, 2015

It takes 2 hours to get to Baayan from Baguio. We started at 6: 30 am, and the road was really bad. I played the song, "Let It Go" with my violin, together with Ellen Lee(Piano) and Christy Nam(flute) for the children in that elementary school. More than 50 students came to school even though it was  Saturday. We all had a lot of fun!

Participating in this community service is challenging, but enriching for me. I feel happy to have shared my talent in playing my violin to the children and their teachers. In this activity, I have initiated and planned with my friends in order to come up with a the kind of music that is popular to children and that they will enjoy and even join in singing. We have worked together collaboratively that the music we played came out really good.

I have learned many things about this activity, especially the importance of perseverance. I have come to realize that even if many people are poor, they are still eager to get educated to improve their lives. I have talked to many kids and I told them that we should always do our best as students to reach our goals in life. It is the right thing to do.
