Kong Hwa School (光华学校) (also known as KHS) is a Special Assistance Plan (SAP) primary school offering fully bilingual primary education in Singapore. The school was founded by Tan Lark Sye at 1953. Kong Hwa School is one of the five affiliated schools under Singapore Hokkien Huay Kuan. The School Motto is "Sincerity and Perseverance". This motto conveys to the pupils that uprightness and trustworthiness; steadfastness and diligence are virtues to be admired and emulated. == History == In 1953, Kong Hwa School opened its doors and began providing education to children in the suburban area. In April 1957, the school accepted the government full grants-in-aid. At the end of 1960, Hokkien Huay Kuan bought over sixty thousand square feet of land at a cost of $90,000 to construct a secondary school wing. When Nan Chiau Girls' High was reconstructed on site, its students were housed in the new Kong Hwa Wing. When the rebuilding of Nan Chiau Girls' High school was completed, Hokkien Huay Kuan and Chung Cheng High School committee members met and came to an agreement that the Kong Hwa Wing be exchanged for Kim Yan Road Chung Cheng Branch School. In 1963, Kong Hwa continued its growth as it moved into its 10th year. At its peak, there were 60 classes, 5 Kindergarten classes, 80 teaching staff and the student population stood at 2,600. In 1992, to facilitate the rebuilding of the new school building, Kong Hwa School was temporarily housed at 610 Aljunied Road, the former Aljunied School building. In 1996, the topping up ceremony for the reconstruction of Kong Hwa School building was officiated by Mr Wee Cho Yaw, Chairman of Hokkien Huay Kuan. Moving back ceremony - Guests, pupils, parents and Kong Hwa School's Alumni members witnessed a very solemn but symbolic moment on the morning of 26 October 1996, held at Kong Hwa Aljunied and Kong Hwa Guillemard. The new building, costing $14 million was completed at the end of 1997. The school was officially opened in 1998 by RADM Teo Chee Hean, the then-Minister for Education. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Kong Hwa School」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
