"Thank You BMS"
Pupils at SK Teh show of a selection of books donated to the
PAL programme by the British Malaysia Society.

The PAL programme has been running every Wednesday at SK Teh since the 9th of July. It is extremely popular with the pupils who come to school early in order to participate. For the first session, the teachers paired the older with the younger students, and suggested that the younger students to read to the older students who were to listen and help. During other sessions, the teachers and mentor have asked the older students to read and the younger students to listen and enjoy. we have also held 'free-style' and silent reading sessions. All the sessions have been enjoyable, and even though we suggest a particular style of peer assisted learning, pupils are free to enjoy the books in any way they like.
