THE LAUNCHING OF PRESENT A SHORT STORY ( P.A.S.S.) PROGRAM

SK Gong Pasir Dungun launched a Present A Short Story ( P.A.S.S.) programme on Jul 27, 2016 at 11 am at the Dewan Iltizam, SK Gong Pasir.

The program was aimed at giving exposure to year 4 and 5 pupils on how to show their understanding of the the texts by telling the story orally. Besides it was also aimed at inculcating the reading habit and enhancing the pupils confidence to speak in public.

150 pupils from year 4 and 5 classes took part in the school english activity called P.A.S.S. The pupils  had a chance to practice using the language by taking part in a few langusge based activities which were planned according to their abilities.

The program was officially launched by PPD Dungun District Language Officer, Mr Hamdan Ismail and the pupils were pleased when Miss Kate from San Francisco, USA was able  not only to witness the launching of the program but to help facilitate the implementation of the activities.

Miss Kate who was SMK Seri Dungun English Teaching Assistant in 2012 was on her vacation to a few Asian countries and one of her destinations was Dungun, Terengganu, Malaysia.

We were truly impressed when she was willing to help us out without being paid. The credit should be given to the Ministry of Education, Malaysia for implementing  the ETA program and not forgetting Terengganu State Education Department for the placement of the ETAs which had strengthened the bilateral ties between the two countries Malaysia and the USA.

Tuan Hj Hassan bin Abdullah who is the PTA Vice Chairman was also present. His presence showed that PTA / PIBG had been giving full commitment in the shared efforts of carrying out any school activities which would help develop the future human capital of our country.

Majlis Temu Murni Pep Pertengahan Tahun 2016 Tahun 1 - 5, Motivasi Keibubapaan dan Pelancaran Aplikasi SYNC SKGP

On June 28^th 2016, Sekolah Kebangsaan Gong Pasir organised its annual ‘Temu Murni’ event to meet and greet the parents of the school’s students to discuss their academic and cognitive achievements. The event began at 10.00 am, where the first batch of early bird parents registered their attendance at the counter according to the student’s year and class. The registration went on without a hitch with more than 80% of parents attended the event throughout year 1 until 5.

The event started with the arrival of the honoured guest, Encik Mohd Azman B. Ali, LINUS officer representing Dungun District Education Officer and Prof Madya Ismail B. Hassan, Ketua Pusat Pengajian,  Gugusan Pengurusan dan Perniagaan, UiTM Terengganu. Encik Ahmad B. Mohd Ali, as the headmaster of the school, delivered the opening speech followed by the speech by Mr Mohd Azman who officiated the event. 

In his speech, he had mentioned about the overall aim of the SSM app, as the medium to lessen the communication gap between the school and the parents. It is also an approach taken to encourage an environmental friendly method of informing the student’s parents about the school activities or important notices, without wasting paper. Encik Mohd Azman B.  Ali ended his speech by signing the ceremonial banner and officially launching the SSM app usage in the school.

As the first half of the program completed, it was time for Prof. Madya Ismail B. Hassan to deliver his motivational talk. He touched on many topics within his talk but what stood out the most was the importance of parental support towards the student.

He talked about the impact of the parent’s involvement in school related events such as the ‘Temu Murni’, to show their support towards their child’s hard earn achievements and in his words “make time for your kids because time is flying fast before we even have the chance to miss it”. Prof. Madya Ismail ended his talk with slight humour before the MC called on the PDD to give a token of appreciation from the school and the parents were dismissed to proceed with the Temu Murni program.
