MOE is going to demolish my primary school

Actually i didnt really wanna blog today. but i got no choice as i got news that my primary school is going to be demolished. I called my ex Discipline Master Mr Low to confirm and he verified with me too. WTH?! i still remember how the school song is sung.



Peixin Primary School School Song


Let's all excel in work and work
Strive to be better everyday
Respect for teachers and elders too
Be loyal to school and country.


We'll learn new skills in Peixin school
Let's obey and keep its rules.
Knowing that we have to give our best
To meet the challengers ahead


Towards Excellence, Towards Excellence
Towards Excellence we'll strive!

Towards Excellence, Towards Excellence.
We'll keep our school flag flying high.


I just got this bad news from my primary school friend derek


this is what he texted " sad news here. Peixin is going to merge with yishun pri. the new budiling after PRIME is going to be renamed as yishun pri. With all uniform attire, motto, vision, all following current yishun pri's."


i still vividly remember some of my teachers. Mr Ong Eng Chek - my primary 1 maths teacher who told my mum that i am a clever student just that i tend to be very careless that's why my maths always got 90+ but not 100. This comment resulted me from a caning from my mum.


Mr Edwin Lye Teck Hee - who appointed me to be as a group leader in primary 2 and was extremely paitient towards my bad behaviour. he was married to my pri5 english teacher Ms Pauline Chan.


Mr Low Kim Suan - who appointed me to be a prefect. but i could not take it when i was in primary 5 and just threw him the tag and say " i quit." during morning assembly time.


Mr Cheong - my music & chinese teacher. it was he who made me have the chance to perform for 4 years on stage during chinese new year. perhaps this is why i love stage since young. He was also the teacher that taught me how to play Er-Hu but i was extremely unkind towards him during certain days of my primary 4 life.


of course, Mrs Irene Heng. my principal during my days. she was extremely good to me


the canteen auntie who sold vege rice taught me a new way of eating chee cheong fun ( with light soya sauce & sesame oil)


the noodles auntie that always treated me fishballs.


and alot more


my laughter, tears in this school


the tortises that we fed in the pond, the chickens we fed with the wang zai biscuits when i was in primary 1. the fitness corner when we played scissors, paper , stone. the basketball court when we play catching~


the fearful dentist corner with the fierce & black woman whom i secretly curse that her teeth will rot when she extract my milk tooth.


the cleaners who ensured we got clean toilets


the classmates i have over the years. xiuwen, yeeshang, olivia, derek, esmond, youfu, jingwen, raymond, hongda, junmin, weihao, luwen, angelia, grace, jialun, priscilla, qiying, meixi, peixi, sim xin yu, tan xin yu, chia shu ting, yeo shu ting, li xuan, mindice, li ning, xing ye, peiqin, sisi, kelvin tan, jin yuan and etc etc etc.. not forgetting my pri 1 classmate, Liang Teck.


the childish arguement between me & some of the guys in the class. the feeling of liking someone. the friendship built over the years. some memories had been withdrawed from my mind. derek quoted some to me days ago and i was like "hahahhahahaha. really?! i did that last time! so childish"


but nevertheless, this place holds my most memorable & happy memories vividly in my mind. i love the school, i love the memories.


but.....................


it will be gone soon
