James, you really have crystallised "those days" and that come to my mind back teachers like Tan Chong Beng, Alan Ku, Idris Matani (my uncle, by marriage and deceased) and the school clerk then George Chong and my favorite school dentist , Miss Kaur. Our credits to all of them..
Mr Tan Chong Beng, remember him well becuase he rode on his bicycle to school, white shirt black pants and soft-spoken. Mr Alan Ku, (when I think about it now) was a more business oriented teacher. He maybe at that time, being the headmaster, was thinking of looking for more funds for some school's projects so, he organised Fun Fairs many times, some of us were volunteers and even a dancing party! We volunteered as waiters!!!Hahaha..it was fun. The late Idris Matani, never thought then, would be my uncle because he married my aunty, I remembered him well because he was our Geo teacher, he asked question like "What are the exports of Brazil?" Football and cocoa. Yes, he loved football, he was a sportman and a football referee then. And for the cocoa, I remember well he said he love milo covered with milk on bread. And make experiments out of it at home! Hmm..good but now..less on this..less on that....
Our teachers also organised "movie-going classes" haha...when good movies (non X rated, of course) like Sound of Musics, To Sir with Love and S.W.A.L.K (Sealed with a loving kiss), can you still remember we walked in line to either Miri Theather or Cathay Theather! Can't quite recall the years.
Those are the primary school story.....secondary later or some us can recall and share..
