HAPPY 65th BIRTHDAY EDMUND JAMES

On 14th September 2007, some Sec 4 Science cohorts gathered to celebrate the 65th birthday of their form teacher, Edmund James. It was held @ Choon Seng Seafood @ Hougang Ave 1 Kopitiam. Almost every Montfortian knows that Choon Seng Seafood brings back good memories of the old Ponggol End chilly crabs. The Hougang unit is not the original Choon Seng, and minus the sea breeze and bus exhaust fumes.

The simple celebration was decorated with plenty of seafood, wine, beer, songs, cakes, presents, even a beer waitress and the ever-present kopitiam crowd! There was a hilarious and lively mini debate between the teacher and students on " The Fundamentals of Procreation". Luckily, it ended peacefully!

The evening went by all too quickly, and the celebration ended on a highly charged spirit with the birthday song and cutting of cakes by the ‘birdday boy? Even the beer waitress presented Edmund with a birthday gift!

Nobody went home empty handed. Koh Seow Long sponsored each guest with a box of Tung Lok mooncakes! A collection was held and amounted to S$867.00 for the St Gabriel's Foundation fund.

I thanked the Class of 1972 Sec 4 Science for organising the celebration of Edmund's 65th Birthday. I am very certain that he is very appreciative and will remember the occasion for many years!

Special thanks to James Cher Liew Hiong, Richard Mok Piak Liang, Law Kee Hau, Koh Seow Long, Tan Chee Meng, Peter Tan Poh Heng, Dennis Mok Kee Seng, Lawrence Ku Yun Fong, Victor Lim Kong Puay, Choy Kah Kin, Eric Ee, John Lee Boon Guan, Tng Hor Teck, William Kwa Hui Khoon, Roger Ng Tioy Teng, Shih Chi Lai & Seow Kok Hsien for making it happened.

We Remember Bro Andrew

A MONTFORTIAN GIANT

The school flag has been flown at half-mask for the last two days and there is a condolence book placed outside the general office for students to pen their thoughts and condolence. There was also a minute of silence observed by students and staff.

A photo exhibition has been set up, which features the life of Bro Andrew, and his contribution to Montfort. You should really read what the boys have written about Bro Andrew even though they have not met him. It was through the eulogy yesterday that they came to know him and what he stands for, "A MONTFORTIAN GIANT"

I wish to invite you to the school anytime today or tomorrow to view the exhibits and sign the condolence book. Can you mass mail out to all former Montfortians who may want to sign the condolence book? We intend to send the book to his family through the Bros of St Gabriel.

THE BOXER

I chronicled what happened in the school. So, the article and some information on him can be found at www.montfortschool.blogspot.com

Tor Cher, Edmund and I did the morning eulogy, which lasted for about half an hour.

We held a farewell concert in the hall on the day itself. The band performed and Mr Simen and myself played "The Boxer" and "Listen to the Falling Rain" to signify the heavens crying.

Very meaningful stuff we did. The boys learnt some meaningful history and heritage that day. You could smell it in the air and sense it through their expressions.
