Column 349

Report from: My Desk
Story filed: In the Navy
Hey there, I'm going to be heading off to work experience in about a day's time. It will last about a week and it's in Sydney so my mother and I will be going down staying with an Aunty for the first night and then we'll be staying in other accommodation for the rest of the week. I'll be doing my work experience with the Royal Australian Navy Band. The study course consists of me and three other guys, we're the only students doing it. We'll be arriving every day around eight thirty and we'll be rehearsing along with different bands each day; wind orchestra one day and a jazz band the next. I think we might get some sort of tour of a ship as well, maybe the fourth day. I thought our taxpayer dollars might have provided food, and we might eat in the mess hall but no, we gotta bring our own packed lunch! It's like another SYO music camp but instead of hanging out with other kids my age it will be just us students with a bunch of 'adult' musos. I'll probably write about how it went in my next column, so if you're interested in reading how it went then stick around for the next iteration of this column.
Until next time
