The ACS Malacca Centenary Celebration

From what i have gathered, the main objective of the Centenary Celebration is to promote the image our school, ACS Malacca, now known as SMK Methodist ACS. As such there are great of ideas on how we are going to celebrate the event. Some of them include Centennial Magazine by end October 2010, Centennial Dinner by January 2011, Scout Camp, Music Carnival, Macian-Idol and more.
Please get in touch with Mr.Tedin for any contribution, ideas or support. The MACS Centenary group can be found here

Cheers

As a remembrance to their alma mater and for fellowship, the Old Boys, ex-staff and ex-Principals are going to share happy tales and take trips down memory lane with a long awaited get-together cum reunion dinner.

The centenary dinner will be held on Saturday, the 5th of March 2011 on the school grounds in Jalan Tengkera.

Many Old Boys or MACSians from faraway lands such as Singapore, Australia, the United Kingdom and Canada will specially make their way back to attend this auspicious occasion.

A special 100th Anniversary school magazine will also be produced with articles written by past and current MACSians. The theme of the celebration is "Renewing old ties and establishing new ones", as they recall the good old times and look forward to contribute and continue the legacy and vision of the early pioneers and current personalities of the school “to reach for the stars through perseverance”.

For details about the dinner, please contact the Principal (Mr Lee Bun Chuan) at 06-2823434 (school) or email Ms. Lim Mui Tiang at lmt_09@yahoo.com or Mr Tan Beng Siang at kuput33@yahoo.com

Dear MACSIANs

I am Wooi from the ACS graduating class of 74.

Some time ago, I chance upon discussing with Wong Yunn Chii (class of 71) on how we as alumni of ACS Malacca should contribute back to our alma mater. Among others, we feel that we should form an ACS Malacca Alumni (AMA) group to coordinate activities that will benefit the current and future students of ACS, as well as bring up the profile and branding of ACS.

To this end, the MACSIAN74 have taken the initiative to kickstart the formation of the AMA.

We feel that the 5 March Centennary Dinner provides a good opportunity to gather like minded people locally as well as overseas to discuss the formation of the AMA.

Thus, the MACSIAN74 have organised the following:

Date: 5 March 2011 (day of the ACS Malacca Centennary Dinner)

Venue: ACS Malacca
2:00pm to 3:30pm: Tour of our Alma Mater (gather at the front assembly area)

3:30pm onwards: Discussion on the formation of ACS Malacca Alumni (at the Tuckshop)

Mr Chong, the current ACS Deputy HM has agreed to lead the tour of our Alma Mater and everyone will have a chance to view their classrooms and check out to see if their graffiti is still on the desk or some corner of the wall!

In the spirit of “Reminiscing our days as ACS boys” we will be providing simple tuckshop finger food (kueh badak, Hassan mee goreng, goreng pisang balls, etc) as well as teh tarik and coffee. We will cater food for 75 people as we have no idea how many will turn up.

So, we would appreciate if everyone of you would help pass the word round regarding the School Tour as well as the formation of the AMA, and encourage as many as possible to attend. Naturally it would be good if all of you can come along to this inaugural meeting to form the AMA.

Regards
Wooi Tan
