Teacher's Day Celebration

The school will be celebrating Teacher's Day on the 29th of May 2009. As usual there will be performances put by the students and also a telematch.

For those students who wish to show their appreciation to their teachers, this is the best time to do so. As the saying goes, "it is the thought that counts." A simple book mark will definitely put a smile on the teacher's face.

Hopefully the weather will be good on that day. Happy Teacher's Day to all the beloved and hard working teachers of the school. "Guru Pembina Negara Bangsa"

In-Service Training for Teachers-3rd Session

On a sunny afternoon on 6th May, the teachers were again involved in the in-service training for the third time. This time the teachers were exposed to the Physical Education evaluation programme aptly known by the acronym SEGAK.

Facilitators comprising P.E. teachers of the school unselfishly shared their knowledge and expertise to all the teachers who might get to teach P.E. in the near future.

Teachers sportingly tried out all the various instrument of evaluation that students themselves have to undergo. Most either went on their knees or flat back on the soft mat provided.

All in all it was fun and at the same time gaining new skills and knowledge. A big thank to all the facilitators for a job well done!
