Students at SRJK (T) Tepi Sungai are temporarily having their classes at the Klang Municipal Council storerooms along Jalan Tepi Sungai. |
KLANG: Students at SRJK (T) Tepi Sungai began the school term yesterday without a "school".
The 150 pupils and 11 teachers had to make the best of "classes" at Klang Municipal Council storerooms along Jalan Tepi Sungai.
They had been using a single classroom and open space at the nearby school premises until fire damaged the building on Dec 22.
They could not use the other classrooms in the building as termites had eaten their way through the structure. But this, and the rain yesterday, did not dampen their spirits.
Parent-Teacher Association deputy chairman N.Subramaniam said conditions at the school were far from ideal but the future looked brighter with plans for a new three-storey block of classrooms.
Subramaniam said a ground-breaking ceremony will be held later this month on the 0.7 hectare site.
Education Ministry parliamentary secretary Datin Paduka P. Komala Devi visited the school yesterday.
