Ques Ut Deus

Yes, being an ex-Michaelian who left in 1964, it was a nice and nostalgic return to see the old school. My two sons were also from St. Michaels Institution so we went back there recently to relive the fond memories.
We dropped by at the La Salle house to say 'Hello' to Bro. Vincent and Bro. Matthew Beh where we chatted for a while. Bro. Vincent had just returned from a trip back to Ireland and he was still feeling a bit jetlagged so we left him to catch up on his sleep. Meanwhile, Bro. Matthew gave us a tour of the school and took some snapshots. He was personally proud of his five-star toilet and it was even featured in the Star newspapers. It was really beautiful compared to the old toilet where we, as kids, learned to smoke there without the knowledge of teachers. The school canteen is now a food court and is well run personally supervised by Bro. Matthew himself so the kids have quality food. The school recently had a new coat of paint with new roofing, thanks to the OMA (Old Michaelians Association) and a new wing behind too.
We will always cherish being from St. Michaels Institution.
