SEREMBAN: SK St Paul, a school with a rich history spanning 125 years, has welcomed a significant change as it opens its doors to female pupils for the first time in its history.

The school’s Board of Governors chairman, Dr Mahadevan Deva Tata, said the admission of the 10 girls yesterday had been an initiative long sought due to the declining number of pupils over the past five years.
