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.

A Surprise for Mr Kanda !
Last Saturday, Mr Kanda received a wonderful surprise....A former student of him found our blog and contacted him. He saw our post entitled "Surprise, Surprise, Surprise" posted by Sien Chi on 16 July 2008 and left a comment there.
Rajen Daniel was Mr Kanda's student in 1963. His sister was also taught by Mr Kanda and he also has two other brothers who went to BPES. The younger brother is Roy Daniel from our class of 1970.
Rajen Daniel is currently a doctor, living in Boston. He left a comment on the post as follows:
"I am very eager to contact Mr. Kandasamy and other school teachers at BPES.
The only teacher I am in touch is Mr John.
I am very grateful to my teachers who instilled a sense of value in our lives.
Daniel"
