A very short update!

Assalamualaikum everybody...

We would like to apologize for the very long absence but now we're back online...

We'll update you from what we left you with last time which happened to be our staff day out to Temburong... and that was in April!! Sorry for the inconvenience caused again... we'll try to update weekly if not daily regarding what is happening with our school and surrounding...

Thank you again people... =) have a great day!

What we did on Wednesday...

We had a cleaning campaign... and everyone was involved and we mean everyone!! :) It's another step taken by the school board to maintain the school's cleanliness and to ensure the environment is always in a secure condition. =)

Our Staff Day Out... ^_^

This is our late entry update due to our hectic schedule... Our staff development trip to Temburong last weekend [19th April 2009]

Our GB decided to take the staff out on another development program... this time around we travel through to Temburong and had our visit to 3 schools namely Sekolah Rendah Selangan, Sekolah Rendah Amo and Sekolah Rendah Selapon.

Teachers gather at Soon Lee Liang and left with 3 cars on a mission to get to Temburong on time. Some teachers decided to take a boat ride with the excuse of 'adventure' [tapinya passport nada!] :p so they arrived earlier. While the other 3 cars went on an exciting road trip to Limbang then head on to Temburong. It was definitely a good day for a drive... :) since it was so much fun, we didn't realise we had driven for nearly 3 hours when we reached. :)

Once in Temburong, we parked our cars in JSS and got on a bus for the next adventure. First school we went to was Sekolah Rendah Selangan...
