Third MBR for St. Michael School Penampang

My former school made another Malaysia Book of Records (MBR) again! This time, they collected the largest amount of aluminum cans.

Their first MBR was the Longest Riverbank Cleaning Up, a joint effort with JC Penampang in year 2007. The second one was collecting the Biggest Amount of Recycled Coconut Shells which entered the MBR last year. Click HERE if you missed out the event.

Once again, my husband and I helped our children collecting the aluminum cans. If you ever saw a family dining at restaurants and brought back [tapau] the cans, it could be my family LOL! Even their grandma [my mother] lent her hand by contributing a few kilos of cans.

Congratulations to the teachers and students of SM St. Micahel School Penampang for this effort. Let's join our hand together to preserve the environment!

Ex-Michaelians Reunion Party

Ex-Michaelians organized a reunion dinner at Atlantis Restaurant last November 7th, 2008. I thought the reunion was open to all ex-students of St Michael Secondary School irregardless which year you attended this school. I only found out that it was actually the reunion of Class 5AII 1985 after reading the Borneo Post yesterday. Mine was 1983 :)

Greg, if you are reading this, why don't you organize ours. I support you all the way :)

Looking at the first picture at the top, I saw Mdm Rose Jianul, my History teacher in Form 3. Ms Clarice Hee, probably the sister of my classmate, Doris Hee. Mdm Christina Maluda, my Geography teacher in Form 3. And Mdm Clementina Hee, but I forgot what subject she taught.

The rest of the pictures. Some faces I familiar but many I don't :) I thought I saw Dolores, but I don't actually sure.

Even though I didn't go to this reunion but my hubby was there. His band 'Salapa' was entertaining the crowds. In fact all the 'Salapa' band members were ex-Michaelians too :)

SM St. Michael School Penampang's Bazaar

SM St. Michael, Penampang organized a mini bazaar last sunday, 29 June 2008. I went there to support their activity and also giving moral support to my children.

The main purpose of this bazaar is in aid of the exchange of students between Yong Ho High School (YHHS), South Korea and SM St. Michael, Penampang itself. 20 students from YHHS, South Korea will be visiting St. Michael this month and selected students from St. Michael will return the visit to YHHS somewhere in November.

The turn-ups of this bazaar was good and personally I think, it was a successful.

Coconut Shell Collection Enters Malaysia Book of Record

My former school Sekolah Menengah St. Michael Penampang has made us proud recently. With combined effort of teachers and students, they entered Malaysia Book of Record for collecting coconut shells. They collected 5,508 shells.

Being a parent of two teenagers who are currently studying at the school, I am so proud of them. I even helped them to collect the shells. I hope this will educate my children to preserve environment.

Here are some articles taken from local newspapers i.e. Daily Express and Borneo Post.
