The CCHY Festival Drum Group is special as it represents the 24 "Jieling (Sub-sessions)". The drums have their special meaning as well; the red, black and yellow symbolise auspiciousness and passion, perseverance, the Chinese culture and tradition respectively.

Our Group is unique in that our performing style is based on the combination of the Wushu (Chinese Martial Arts), calligraphy and dance. The Festival Drum Group is not only a performing group but a CCA group that emphasizes a lot on discipline, character building and teamwork as well as a well-balanced and happy life. A positive attitude on the part of the members is essential for learning and character building.

去年 6 月假期到中国的交流活动,我校节令鼓队便到了中国上海的建平实验学校及北京的鼓楼表演,获得当地的学者及有关人士高度的评价。今年 6 月,鼓队除了参与新加坡艺术节的表演,还受教育部课外活动处的邀请,在青年节开幕礼上参与演出。鼓队将继续努力,使节令鼓成为具有区域特色的表演艺术。
