I was a student at Telok Paku Primary School from 1958 (Primary 1) to 1962 (Primary 6) and lived at Changi Village, Block A2, House No 4. Have very fond memories of childhood days at Changi Village and at Telok Paku Primary. My teachers were Mr WD John (Pr 1), Ms Caroline Chia (Pr 2), Mr Danny Koh (Pr 3), Mr VF Spykerman (Pr 5) and Mr Soh Chuan Seng (Pr 6). Tamil teachers were Mr Maniam (Pr 5) and Mr Mohd Ali (Pr 6). If I remember correctly, the School Principals then were Mr Bakshis Singh (1958), Mr RS Barth (1959-61) and Mr Alex Abisheganathan (1962). Left Changi Village in Jan 1963. Still staying in Singapore in the Yio Chu Kang Area.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03231657860409621179noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-67210493387159901712015-05-20T20:35:51.615+08:002015-05-20T20:35:51.615+08:00Mohd Bin Osman in 1970 i was pr 1 my teacher is mr...Mohd Bin Osman in 1970 i was pr 1 my teacher is mrs hamid and my pricipal is mrs quek my sport teacher was mr bala and i stay at kampong changi. until today i still remember the school sometime i have dream at telok paku school is a same similar school in my dream .i love telok paku school so much anybody have a telok paku school photo please @ in the website thanks for all member of telok paku pr school we are all family thank you once again my email glidersdrm@yahoo.com.sgMohd Bin Osmannoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-24553761971520984092015-03-16T22:16:09.236+08:002015-03-16T22:16:09.236+08:00Hi kursheed

My favorite teacher was John WD whom I kept in touch until recently. Unfortunately, I have lost contact with a couple of my "best friends", particularly Tan Kit Heng and Poh Ai Lin ( yellow was her favorite color). I would very much like to met them again when I visit Singapore in Oct 2013. Can someone help ?

My late father worked for the RAF. I lived first at Blk 9, and we shifted to Blk C4. Blk 9 was directly opposite the huge rain tree. I have fond memories of my life in Changi, the Changi Cinema,the foodstalls, the stone bridge where I enjoyed diving and most of all, Telok Paku English Schools. I remember Mr. Laurie Chan, although he was not my Form Teacher, Mr. Soh Chuan Seng, Mrs. Rozario, Mr. Danny Khoo, Mr. David Ler, Mr. Tan Hock Soon. Also Mr. Mohd Ali - the Tamil Teacher, and of course the principals, R.S Bath (I am not sure of the spelling) Mr. Singh, and Mdm SS Quek.

Yes, she writes beautifully, pardon the bias. I was the little sister, Liyen, and yes, I studied at Telok Paku Primary too; together with Yew Meng and Viji, I was there from 1961-1966 until I went to Tanjong Katong Girls. My sister wanted me to go RGS, of which I qualified, but refused - the rebellious me! Telok Paku had good teachers - I remember Paul Wee - who brought us to church every Sunday, Jeffrey Goh with his wonderful sense of humor, and a chinese teacher who also brought us everywhere to show village girls and boys a bit of Singapore we didn't know existed - apart from Changi Village!<br />Yes, we were poor - my sister Lily and I had to make ice-drinks to sell, my brother Philip and I manned the canteen where we sold drinks and sweets, and where I spent all my time reading - thus giving me the ability to read English at uni. We used to envy the shopkeepers' children, and looked jealously as the "ang-moh" would come out of the "cold storage" grocery store that sold butter and English cookies that we could never afford!<br />I loved the lontong store - still the best in my memory, and the wanton noodles that my classmate sold with her mother. <br />Where are my classmates - Poh Choo, Maimon, Soon Buay, and yes, Viji? We should meet up one day!<br /><br />Liyennoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-59896606276934204282012-10-08T18:21:42.252+08:002012-10-08T18:21:42.252+08:00Geri Lim ,Is it Soh Chuan Seng?In the fifties and ...Geri Lim ,Is it Soh Chuan Seng?In the fifties and sixties .He taught the three of us,my two brothers and myself.<br /><br />jaya 8/10/2012<br />20vijihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07904546696495864177noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-90927661093843135292012-06-02T14:43:32.104+08:002012-06-02T14:43:32.104+08:00My father, Soh Chuan Lam, used to teach at Telok P...My father, Soh Chuan Lam, used to teach at Telok Paku School in the 1950s.gerilimnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7826590137201441127.post-16053852194818761092012-04-19T17:04:35.460+08:002012-04-19T17:04:35.460+08:00Hi!
