During Primary 1 to 4, most of us in the above list were from A Class, while Bon Hian & Kian Seng(including Low Chin Swee and I think also Margaret)were from B Class. Samy whose full name is Vellasamy and Rita(I think this is her full name) were from C Class together with Koh Kheng Song, Lim Leong Din and Shee Joo Shan. Most of us then went to 5A under Mr Chow and then got split in Primary 6. Mr Chow continue to take care of 6C, while Ms Chong took 6B and Mr Kandasamy took 6A.
I don't think Samy and Rita joined us in 5A but Class C was under Mr Chow at one point of time(I think in Primary 3), hence Samy could remember Mr Chow. Both Samy and Rita joined me for the Tamil lessons when all the Indian students from A,B & C were pooled together to form one class.
Samy only get along Rita at much later stage and he only remembers that she came from Chestnut Drive Secondary and probably never bother to find out about her primary school.
I trust my memory is reliable and please let me know if any of the above facts are not correct.

This blog was created in 2008 to celebrate the 50th birthyear of classmates from BPES, a public elementary school in Singapore. "Bukit Panjang" means Long Hill in Malay, and was a thriving village in the 60s to 70s located at the intersection of 3 main trunk roads, Upper Bukit Timah Road, Chua Chu Kang Road, and Woodlands Road that connects to Malaysia via the causeway. We started our primary schooling at age 7 and graduated at 12. Welcome and share your memories. Click on pics to enlarge.
