They have performed at the annual Founder’s Day and Speech Day parades, and regularly represent the School at the Crieff Remembrance Day Parade and in the Scottish Independent Schools massed band Beating Retreat at Holyrood Palace in Edinburgh.
Recent international forays have seen them travel to Hong Kong, New York (where they led the Tartan Day Parade in Manhattan), and to Muscat in the Sultanate of Oman where, amongst other engagements, they performed on the high seas with the Royal Navy of Oman.

OC is the pioneer of the Baby Hatch system in Malaysia, and handles adoption of babies received via their 10 baby hatches nationwide (three operated by OC, and seven in collaboration with KPJ Specialist Hospital Group).
Additionally, they provide shelters for women who are more than seven months pregnant, facilitate adoptions of newborn and children from institutions, and reintegrate children from institutions into their birth families.OC is a non-profit, non-government organisation that relies solely on kind gestures and goodwill of the donating public. It relies on public support to serve the community at large to help achieve the mission of making a difference in children’s lives ─ the future generation of Malaysia.
