I am Ismail Omar from Labok and Class of 1958. Mr Tagar Singh (Geography) was HM and Mr Kam Teck Soon was Science Master in 1958. Other teachers were DSB Malayapillai (English Language and Literature) D Gupta (Mathematics) and Hussein Mohammad (History). I was the School Captain as well as Hostel captain in 1958. There were 3 other Ismails in the Class (sons of Ibrahim, of Hassan and of Hussein).
We were the first batch of pupils to sit for the Malaysian Certificate of Education which was really the same examinations as the Cambridge School Certificate) and we were also the first batch to have sat for the LCE back in 1956 when it was first introduced after Malaysia became self governing in 1955 after the first General Elections.
Among my classmates were: Rahim Rahman, Nassim Salleh, Ariff Ibrahim, Tengku Robert Hamzah, Ibrahim Mohammad, Abdullah Mohammad, Nik Ibrahim, Mokhtar Senik, Manan Mohammad, Mohd Noor Mat Diah (The last 3 transferred from Kuala Krai in January 1955 like me).
