he magazine of St Michael’s Institution, T“The Michaelian” is 65 years old this year. The first magazine was published in 1948 during the directorship of Brother Patrick O’ Donovan. He was the Brother Director in St Michael’s from June 1938 to March 1948. He stood out in Michaelian history as an educationist par excellence who succeeded in putting St Michael’s in the top rank of schools. He introduced science teaching and was responsible for increased interest and efficiency in the classroom and extra-curricular activities. Among the many significant seeds sown during the Patrician era were the setting up of Chinese language classes, the Literary and Debating Society, the Thrift Society, the School Broadcasting Society and the Michaelian magazine. He was also responsible for the establishment of the De La Salle School in Kampar. This year we pay tribute to “The Michaelian”, being showcased on the front cover, all the past issues of the magazines we treasure and value. After a period of more than six decades, “The Michaelian” is still going strong and continues its quest to document the historic, significant and memorable events dear to all.

MICHAEL’S INSTITUTION, IPOH .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... MICHAELIAN OATH We Michaelians pledge ourselves at all times in the spirit of our motto QUIS UT DEUS • To be loyal to God and our country, to our school and to our class. • Out of respect for God and our fellowmen, to follow the rules of good morality in our personal and social behaviour. • To show respect to all who exercise authority, parents and teachers especially and student leaders as well. • To be smart in dress and appearance and to follow school directives in these matters. • To give first attention to our studies and in a spirit of service to participate in extramural activities. .................................................................................................................................................................................................................................... THE SCHOOL RALLY All through our College a voice is resounding Promptly respond to your duty’s sweet call! Hearken you all for the trumpet is sounding Your Mater’s proclaiming her watchword to all Forward her children dear! Ever with hearts sincere Render with joy to your Mater her due All that is vile, reject Heaven will e’er protect Sons of St. Michael’s Valiant and True. he Michaelian 2013 aptly carries the theme, ‘Onwards Michaelian! Valiant And True’. Rooted in the ever strong T tradition of St. Michael’s over the decades, the theme truly inspires all Michaelians to step into the new century, guided by the willpower and determination of past exemplary Michaelians. Compiling The Michaelian has been a mammoth task and a publication of this nature is often an intensely collective effort. I am so thankful that I have been blessed with a dedicated team who has the far-sightedness and remarkable news sense. These qualities had indeed helped significantly in producing this yearbook which, I reckon, every Michaelian is able to reminisce the special moments they spent in St Michael’s Institution. There is something for everyone here, the variety and creativity of the articles and events in these pages represent the talents of St. Michael’s students. The strength and spirit of the students are developed within the school through the hardwork, perseverence, thoughts and aspirations. This school attains its eminence in the first place through the achievements of our students. We are delighted that we have been able to chronicle the developments and evolution that took place in our school at almost every turn. I sincerely hope that this yearbook will open a window for every Michaelian to have an insight of our Alma Mater. On behalf of the Editorial Board, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to the teacher advisors who have been of immense help in breathing life into these pages. To those who have contributed to the yearbook in any form, you have my utmost appreciation. The Editorial Board of the year 2013 takes great pleasure in presenting to you, The Michaelian 2013. -BELIEVE IN EVERYTHING BECAUSE EVERYTHING IS REACHABLE- -QUIS UT DEUS- CHRISTINA SEE-KEI WONG EDITOR-IN-CHIEF 2 3 4 SITTING (L-R) Tn.
