HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY

Dear teachers of MGSKL,

Today is the 16th May 2009. Happy Teachers' Day and may we look forward to another great year with our colleagues and students in the school.

I want to thank each and everyone of you for your contributions to the school, no matter what your position is or what subject you teach, the most important thing is that WE ARE ALL TEACHERS and our students are our main concern and the reason why we are in school. They depend on ALL OF US to give them the direction and guidance to be successful in their studies, co-curricular activities and the development of their character and personality in school. No profession in this world has so much influence on so many people at one time. We are the ones who can "touch heads(minds) and hearts"! The power which has been given to us is very great, so let us shoulder together and make MGSKL a great school for our students.

The accomplishment of our school vision and mission will only take place if we as teachers are serious about it. Yes, we have to toil and work hard, we have to be patient and caring, understanding and sensitive to the students' needs, be emphatatic and yet strict and firm because we are dealing with students who are from all types of background, who are different in temperament and behaviour, who have emotions and feelings which need a lot of nurturing and love............not forgetting that we need to be creative and innovative as well...I am very sure that when we succeed to give them our best, they will appreciate us for the rest of their lives.

Guru-guru sekalian, marilah kita berazam menjadikan MGSKL sebuah sekolah yang memberikan pendidikan terbaik, sebuah tempat yang selesa untuk semua pelajar tanpa mengira latar belakang mereka and menyediakan mereka untuk hidup and menjadi warganegare yang berguna.

I am going to share a few words of wisdom from books which I have read on education:

"THE ONLY WAY EDUCATION IS GOING TO CHANGE IS IF THE CLASSROOM TEACHER MAKES IT HAPPEN", William Glasser

"EACH TEACHER HAS THE POWER TO CHANGE EDUCATION FOR THE BETTER FROM THE INSIDE OUT. IT STARTS DEEP WITHIN HIS OR HER OWN SOUL AND WORKS ITS WAY OUT! EDUCATIO DOESN'T NEED REFORM; IT NEEDS RENEWAL, ONE HEART AT A TIME. LOOK FOR WAYS TO BULID UP OTHERS IN YOUR PROFESSION SO THEY, TOO, CAN BE RENEWED", Vicki Caruana

HAPPY HAPPY TEACHERS' DAY AGAIN!!!!

My best wishes and warmest regards,
Pn Chia

Malaysia confirms first swine flu case: health official

To all teachers,

Just would like to share this info to you all even though I have most of you all have knew about this issue.

Pls be good care our yourelf and also need to remind our students to take extra precaution about this swine flu.

Malaysia's top health official Friday confirmed the country's first case of swine flu amid fears that some of those exposed to the infected patient could have gone on to Indonesia.

"I can confirm (that it) is the first case in Malaysia," health ministry director general Ismail Merican told AFP.

Acting health minister Kong Cho Ha, who addressed a hastily-convened press conference later, said the patient was a 21-year-old male student who arrived on a flight from the United States on May 13, giving no further details as to his identity.

He said the patient came down with fever, sore throat and body aches the next day and was admitted to the Sungai Buloh quarantine facility in central Selangor state on the same evening and is now in stable condition.

He said five family members who live with the patient have been placed under home quarantine in order to monitor their condition.

The government has urged all passengers who travelled on Malaysian airlines flight MH091 from Newark in the United States to Kuala Lumpur, that landed at 7.15am on May 13 to contact the ministry for further instructions.

"No passengers have been quarantined, we are still trying to trace them," Kong said of the 199 passengers and crew onboard the flight.

"We will segregate them (when located). If they have no signs (of the disease) they can go after a certain number of days," he added.

However, he said there was a fear that some of those exposed to the infected patient may have gone on to Indonesia.

"We mention Indonesia because that flight is a code share with (Indonesian carrier) Garuda so the assumption is that there could be some passengers going to Indonesia," he added.

Officials could not immediately confirm how many Indonesians were on board nor if any passengers continued onto Indonesia.

Kong said Malaysia's alert level would remain the same despite its first confirmed swine flu case as the country was already at its highest state of preparedness since the World Health Organisation raised its flu alert to phase five out of six.

"We have been on full alert," said Kong. "We are on a level of full preparedness."

Malaysia is also pushing for the WHO to get affected countries to implement exit screening in order stop the spread of the disease amid concerns that a second wave of the officially named A (H1N1) disease could be deadlier.

"If we can have travellers from affected countries screened before they are allowed to travel out, this will help us to contain the spread of such virus to other places," health minister Liow Tiong Lai told state media before heading off for the 62nd WHO General Assembly in Switzerland from May 18 to 22.

The world health body has not recommended travel restrictions following the outbreak but has advised those who are ill to delay their travel plans and urged returning travellers who fall ill to seek medical treatment.

Health officials could not immediately confirm if Malaysia would be implementing exit screening after confirming its first swine-flu case.

On Tuesday, the government urged its citizens to defer travel to the US, Mexico, Canada, Spain and Britain following reported cases of swine flu in those countries.

Malaysian health authorities have installed 20 thermal scanners at the country's entry points to help detect cases with 9,324 passengers screened so far.

The latest World Health Organisation figures show the number of laboratory-confirmed swine flu cases worldwide is 7,520 in 33 countries. A total of 65 people have died from the disease, most of them in Mexico, WHO figures show.
