I’ve been to the place and the field is quite bad. Plenty of stones around. Not suitable for games.
SJK(T) Ladang Vallambrosa in Kapar has a large field, but it is of no use to the 637 pupils because of its terrible condition.
If trying to avoid rocks and stones was not perilous enough for the primary school pupils, they also have to dodge cow dung and dog poo when they use the field.
One of the reasons why the field is in such bad shape is because it is not fenced up, unlike other parts of the school.
Herds of cattle from a nearby estate wander into the field in the mornings and afternoons to graze, leaving little grass but plenty of manure behind.
The school parent-teacher association (PTA) is appealing for about RM350,0000 in funds from the Government, politicians, organisations and individuals to help improve the facilities.
Their priority is to build a perimeter wall around the 70-year-old school to keep animals and thieves out.
Thieves have cut the fence of the school to steal copper pipes from the air-conditioner compressors as well as wire from the lightning arrester, PTA chairman A. Balasubramaniam said.
“We want another guard house to be built at the back of the school to improve security,” he added.
Balasubramaniam said the school also needed a tarred road to its new building as well as a covered walkway to shelter teachers and students from the rain.
“There is also a need for a proper car park, as teachers now have to leave their cars by the side of the road outside the school,” he said.
