Journal 15.4: New friends!



We had guest from Micheal Jobs school. A band of girls came over to our school with the instruments required for the march past. The best part of today was how we mingled with them and did the march past together with the instruments. There was not much of a problem with coordination today because the drum beats were clearly heard. Also, they taught some other march past traditions like marching on spot 3 times before moving forward and marching 3 times of spot before ending the parade. Those small changes definitely nourished our practice session today because it looked more organized and in fact, way more formal. These girls were highly talented and actually seemed like they were trained for years to play the instruments while marching, even though they were the same age as all of us. Finally, we could see the difference between the last practice march past today and the very first march past we did. I personally felt proud of myself and the others as well for correcting all errors and marching without any major flaws  and with a lot of confidence.  Finally, before ending the practice session, we learned how to salute the guest when they enter the gallery for the republic day celebration.
