School Library

The PFS library is called Khazanah Tunku. The 2 storey building can fit an olympic swimming pool and houses a small collection of books. It is located at the fringe of the school field and next to the scout den.

The main entrance opens to a large counter, decorated by the top recommended books.
A few computers dot the floor and a dozen or so study table fill the ground floor.

The library holds just about 1000 books, most of from the ancient times. There has recently been some additions to the library, but in terms of content, the library has a long way to go before being capable of encouraging the reading habit.

The library is run by the Board of Librarians who man the counters and upkeep the building.

A number of stories in PFS originate from the library. A large portrait of the late Tunku Abdul Rahman watches over the entire library. It is purported that some students have seen his eyes move. Also, there is supposedly a tunnel in the library, leading to the school hall. A few people have admitted to seeing the entrance, now seal.

The girl with the orange bikini

Well, I remember there was a time when some girls visited our school.

There was this girl wearing a flouroscent orange bikini inside her baju kurung.

Hmmm.. what was she doing in a guys' school??
