CURIOUS to find out about the origins of SMK St Michael’s military band, Tan Wei Shern went to great lengths to get as much information as he could.

The 19-year-old Michaelian even managed to track down the band’s founder, Brother Patrick O’ Connell, 85, who is currently residing in Canada to learn more about the band.
