King for a day.
Mr Khoo retires today after more than 30 years in the education service.
They say every dog has its day and today is truly his day.
Celebrated with joy and appreciation, the school had a string of activities in tow to entertain both the celebrity and the audience.
At 60, it is mandatory that he leaves.
Today the ladies had fun dressing him up both as a king and a biker.
See, he is full of joy and happiness.
There was dancing and singing and the simple performances lit up the day.
The Wind Orchestra was not missed out.
The members blew, strummed and hit the drum with feelings for Mr. Khoo.
Induja sang Taylor Swift's Blank Space while Jean's rendition of the Beatles' "Let It Be" caught the audience's attention.
The head boy presented the bouquet for the man.
Teachers showed their support.
The office staff will miss the kind soul; simple and humble.
The administrators appreciate him too; he is hard of hearing at times; otherwise a good listener.
Teacher Murugama came to me this morning and said she will miss him; a father figure to her.
Pn Len and Pn Goh gave their love to him; unconditionally . Believe me.
The party is on too. The hall has never looked prettier than this. All it needs now is to be air-conditioned and the place becomes perfect.
The beautiful cake for the handsome man.
Alas, time waits for no man. He has to go. So he clocks out.
The lucky man has a battalion ready to give him that manly send off.
Yes, truly a rugged man now. Mr. Khoo goes off on a super bike!
His dream came true; made possible by the lovely teachers.
All ready for the send off !
The children were excited to wave their goodbyes...
Goodbye Mr. Khoo.
God bless you for the days to come.
Happy retirement.
So ends another episode in the annals of the school.
The unsung heroes are the teachers of the school. In one spirit with respect they gave him a memorable day; one which will be etched in his memory for many days to come. Thank you dear teachers for this unconditional support given.
You are truly a class of your own; first class.
You are truly a class of your own; first class.
