10 December 2022 – Kate DiCamillo has quoted that, reading should not be presented to children as a chore or duty but should be offered to them as a precious gift at which the quote relates well with the main objective of the Trilingual Reading Camp: to provide the primary students an opportunity to learn Malay, English and Chinese language in a thematic and interesting way.
For this reason, Mandarin Language Society (MLS) has organised a Trilingual Reading Camp in collaboration with SJK (C) Pei Chai and Hu Miao Studio that took place in SJK (C) Pei Chai, Kuantan from 8.00 a.m. to 2.00 p.m.

23 September 2022 – “Tell me and I forget, teach me and I remember, involve me and I learn”. This quote by Benjamin Franklin has been tried and true for educators. For the teacher, facilitation entails a more active classroom, and students’ live participation confirms progress in the learning outcomes. Discourse on students as facilitators and its practice, however, has not been given much focus.
