WITH four days to go before Malaysia marks her 60th year of independence, schools are showing their patriotic spirit by celebrating the diversity and colours that unite us. StarEducate finds out what students in the Klang Valley are doing for the Merdeka season.

THE 60 Jalur Gemilang that greet those entering Sekolah Sultan Alam Shah (SAS) Putrajaya, are a clear indication that the school takes patriotism seriously. In fact, the school has had a carnival-like atmosphere over the last three weeks because of the activities being held to mark the country’s National Day on Aug 31.
