The Labour of Love

 28th February saw another event happening to the folks of the school.

It was the Annual General Meeting for the PTA . So it's election and voting for a set of parents who are willing to put in effort, time and money for the betterment of the school.

We were fortunate to receive a most honoured guest; the Director of Education of Selangor. It was indeed an unexpected visit and we were flattered at his decision to meet our humble selves.

He gave a motivated speech especially reminding parents and teachers that vocational learning and living skills are vital for meaningful existence and that all academic achievement is not the ultimate in life. There is need to impart good values and survival skills as part and parcel of success in life. What is the use of all the achievement if not applied in life? Food for thought.

 The committee waited in great anticipation for this visit as the school seldom had the privilege for an honour like this. You see Lee Ling in blue? She has been in school for a long while and she is the live wire. Her speed in getting things done is not easy to emulate. The lady in maroon is Pn Chua. She has been with the school ever since its inception and has been called the unsung hero; being the first to arrive in the morning and making sure things are in order each day. The school is indebted to her in many ways.

 So the hitting of the simple gong is symbolic of the opening ceremony and there, he's ready for the next agenda.

 We created a special room ; Serambi Sarana. This will be a room for small groups of parents to meet informally for open discussions and decisions. We hope this will strengthen the bond and make more positive things happen in the future. So it was officially opened today. The Director gave suggestions on how best the room can be utilized. It was kind of him.

 The run last year was a major factor for other projects to take place in the school. Children ran for a collection to fund the project of the year; the extension of the school canteen. They did not realise then what an impact they created by the participation. It's this. The team work in tandem with a good cause will surely bring to fruition something good.

 Look at the smily teachers.They are fearless of commitment; they want a leader to lead. So, this willingness is imperative for a success story to happen. Kudos teachers.

Recess time has always been a nightmare when students for space in a cram canteen.

There was a need to extend it.

 The space beside the canteen is good reason to respond. The jogathon was carried out for it.

 The hard work of everyone has today allowed the space to be used fruitfully.

See, beautiful now.

 I am glad to see them during recess enjoying themselves.

It's unspeakable joy.

 We also upgraded the furniture of the old canteen.

Today the students can eat in style; fast food style !

 Isn't it a joy to see them happy ?

This police officer is our man in charge of delinquent activities of the school. He was instrumental in giving us the permit to collect the funds. Was he excited to see the approval given gave fruition to a project well done.He was very pleased indeed.

So, the Director gave his blessings and put down his approval with glee.

 He also was very sporting.

He showed his interest in the welfare of the students and teachers and took his precious time for a memorable shot with the teachers. We were so privileged to have a photo to remember by.

What a visit and what a day.

Kudos to the PTA of 2014/2015 for a job well done for the love of the children.
