After 21 years as one of the most dedicated, hardworking, and humblest of teachers, Ms. Wee Inn Koon's time as a Maths teacher in St John's Instituition came to an end. Tears were not held back as tributes flew in one by one. Here was mine, representing my class which was her last she taught.
'A very good morning to Mr. Peter Yii, Dr. Puva, Pn Norlaila, teachers, friends and to a very special teacher, Ms. Wee Inn Koon. We from the Upper Six Science Three, have been very lucky to have been taught by a very dedicated teacher, guiding us in a subject many considered to be one of the most challenging in form 6. Ms. Wee did not leave a single drop of sweat behind, as she poured all her efforts in ensuring that we do well in her subject. Despite being our Maths teacher, her sincere care for her students can be clearly felt as most of her advice are not only confined to Maths, but also constantly motivating us to be successful in our future endeavours. Her retirement today will not diminish our determination to do well but instead, we will strive harder to re-double our efforts to do our very best in our STPM. Ms Wee, good news will definitely be in store for you in coming March, for all of us are confident that we will not let you down. On behalf of Upper Six Science Three, we would like to say thank you for all you’ve done for us, and we would like to wish you a happy retirement, may god bless you with good health and prosperity in your future undertakings. Thank you, teacher.' |
