FAREWELL DINNER + MOONCAKE FASTIVAL

At Tuesday night, when the Chinese were celebrating the Mooncake or Lantern Festival, our school Chinese teachers were having a mooncake dinner at one of the famous Restaurant in Sitiawan. This was to give a simple farewell to our 4 trainee teachers who will complete their 3 months practicum this week in our school. They have been very co-operative and helpful and a joy to work with during their practicum days. In here, I hope both of them will successful in their life endeavours in future.

RAMADHAN ZONE

Verses of Qur'an

2:183
O ye who believe! Fasting is prescribed to you as it was prescribed to those before you, that ye may (learn) self-restraint

2:184 (Fasting) for a fixed number of days; but if any of you is ill, or on a journey, the prescribed number (should be made up) from days later. For those who can do it (with hardship), is a ransom, the feeding of one that is indigent. But he that will give more, of his own free will, it is better for him. And it is better for you that ye fast, if ye only knew.

Welcoming Ramadhan

Ramadhan is a very important part of every Muslim’s life. Ramadhan is the month of giving and mercy, and during this month Allah blesses the believers with forgiveness and great reward.

This is a time to stop and contemplate, to look inwards and out, it is a time to set our goals. We should ask ourselves what we want to achieve this month, - something we will carry into our futures...more
