This is my Primary School -- Mattar East Primary School! I studied there from 1978-1983. It is a small small school, i think smaller than the Parade Square/CarPark of a Modern School! Most of the time, i lived in tears and fear in my Primary School. . . low self-esteem and low in confidence. my teachers were very strict and fierce de... still remember Wang Lao Shi, he would use wooden ruler to smack us , as he walks down the column, so that everyone gets into a traight line. fail spelling also get whacked on the palms... I still remember my classmate, Pornchai Suphakiatkumchorn, but cannot find him le... most likely he would have forgotten me le. Took this picture this Monday, while i visited MacPherson Primary , next to it. Now Mattar East Primary School is no longer existence, except the Physical Building . Too bad, i was her top pupil for PSLE, should have kept the Board that they scribed my name ther. ha ha .... everyday, i go to school with 40 cents ! eat noodles 20cents. 10 cents buy drink. 10 cents buy titbits. My Dad and Mum are very nice people. They worked very hard to bring my 3 brothers and me up. Six of us stayed in a single bedroom flat at Block 17, 40D, Merparti Road. Cannot imageine hor, six persons sleep in one bedroom. . .! what do you think? do you love you primary ? MJR ex-pupils, heard that there is a gathering for after Tea as a farewell for the school @ Sims Drive ...,. MJR shifting by end of this year. next year , we will be @Ubi ave 1!!!! I will miss this school @ Sims Drive . ha ha ...
