STEAMBOAT SESSION TO BID FAREWELL TO A COLLEAGUE

1st DECEMBER 2021 ~ Mr. Adnan Shamsuddin got transferred from SMK Dato' Jaafar to English College for the same post, i.e. the Senior Assistant of Students' Affair -- less than one year as a teacher in SDJ.

The male teachers and staff decided to bid him a proper farewell like we used to do but it had to be done a bit late because of Movement Control Order [MCO]. The venue chosen was Johor Steamboat in Adda Heights where eat-all-you-can was possible.

It was not even a weekend and the place was very crowded with people dining in. Definitely not the place to go for people people who strictly observe the C-19 SOP.

The party had to disperse by 10:00 p.m. as the next day was a working day.

Wishing Mr. Adnan the best of luck at his new school and who knows, one day he might come back to SDJ as the Principal.

ANOTHER FAREWELL GATHERING FOR THE PRINCIPAL

This was a separate gathering organized by the male teachers and staff of SMK Dato Jaafar for the Principal who was transferred to another school, SMK Tun Syed Nasir Ismail. The session was held at Johor Steamboat on 29th July 2019. Only 2 colleagues could not make it to the steamboat dinner that evening.

Even though we are now not in the same school, we hope the friendship will always blossom.

"Only in the agony of parting, do we look into the depths of love."
