‘It is like school all over again’

Former teachers and principals of SMK Perempuan Methodist Ipoh catching up with each other at the thanksgiving dinner to mark the 120th anniversary of the school.

AT THE blowing of Shirley Yap’s whistle, the entire ballroom went quiet and sat at attention.

Suddenly, it felt like school all over again when Yap, better known as “Mrs Choo”, SMK Perempuan Methodist Ipoh’s strict but beloved retired physical education teacher, instructed everyone to get on their feet and took them through some warm up exercises.
