 They are similar to hand bell, but they are cheaper, easier, lighter, and flexible, making them more accessible for school activity.

Chimes Extracurricular are a group activity that needs teamwork. We have to get the same rhythm and pitching, combined with tone and expressions. The sound produce is relaxing, it blends nicely.

I had chosen Chimes Extracurricular since I was in 7^th Grade.  I really enjoyed it and still in Chimes Extracurricular until now. We played in some school activities such as Christmas and Easter. This last year we played in Shangri-La with Elementary Ensemble Team on December, “Haiti” and “Black&White”.

When I was in 9^th grade, the teacher was gone out of town and we were taught by the 3 seniors: Jessica Karli, Josephine Livia, and Julinda. They were 2 years upper than me. But because they have already in 12^th Grade, they have to study for their Final Exams and stop all their extracurricular. So now Chimes Extracurricular is teaches by Evelyne (11^th), Tania (10^th), and me.
