outstanding band but also a cohort of very inspired alumni to carry on her work. They have run the band since, bringing it to even greater heights. Through the imaginative and creative use of gimmicks, props and colours to enhance its formations, the band has been able to set new trends, pushing up the standards of local display bands.

In 2006, to add on to school’s golden jubilee celebrations in 2006, TK Band once again brought home the Display Band of the Year Award for the 5th consecutive year, a feat no other secondary school in Singapore has ever achieved to date.

Unprecedented in the history of display band performance, TK Band had put up a stellar display performance, using large props that included a bell tower and 2 canons to complement its spectacular finale – a large formation of the St Basil's Cathedral in Moscow, with all its colourful domes and supported by the great Russian piece 1812 Overture. This winning display was a fitting tribute to what could be the last time the outdoor band competitions would be held at the National Stadium.

The band continues its tradition of excellence, serving as a living spirit for all members to continually strive toward greater heights, and to redefine excellence.
