Just saw news about Montfort and got reminded of my English Teachers then.
Cik Zainab, Mrs Ho, Mr Niap, Mr Chong and Mrs Yong.
(Did I miss out one teacher? Was Mr Chong my English teacher or other subjects?)

I can’t even remember the textbooks we used.

BATU PAHAT: In an effort to promote the mastery of English among the pupils of SK Montfort here, the school’s Parent-Teacher Association’s president, Mazlan Mohamad, is sponsoring 4,288 copies of the New Straits Times to 97 Year 5 and Year 6 pupils for one year.

The sponsorship is for the Monday edition of the English daily which comes with the Didik pullout that can be used as reference material for the pupils.

“I decided to sponsor the newspaper for those who will be sitting for the Ujian Penilaian Sekolah Rendah (UPSR) to help them achieve better results,” said Mazlan as he handed over the first batch of newspapers to the school’s headmaster, Ali Yunus.

“This is in line with the awareness among teachers and parents of using the NST, especially the Didik pullout, as an additional learning tool.”

Ali said the clear writing found in NST makes it ideal material for students of all ages seeking to  improve their grasp of English.

“It is also suitable as learning material for subjects like Science and Mathematic. Not only that, the newspaper also contains interesting news and articles from inside and outside of Malaysia,” said Ali.

This is the third time in a row that Mazlan has sponsored copies of NST to SK Montfort.
