Award Scheme Colours
There
are 8 levels in the scheme:
yellow, green, red, blue, black, bronze, silver, and gold Each level has a set of scales, a pin study,
theory and some tasks to complete.The
difficulty of each award increases as you go up the levels.You must pass the prelim level to enter Frostys Band, green level to become a member
of the youth band part time, and red to become a full youth band member. You do not have to take part in the scheme but you
will find it challenging and rewarding. At the end of each level you will be presented with a certificate and a pin badge of the appropriate
colour to wear on your uniform, however as well as getting the certificate and pin badge when you gain your bronze pin, silver
pin and gold pin you also get a summer school sponsorship and when you get your silver pin and gold pin you get a summer school
sponsorship, a certificate, pin badge, and a solo spot in one of the Test Valley Brass concerts.
