With a title like The School That Built A Nation, it has built up a lot of anticipation in me.
As can be seen from this image, The Old Frees' Association in Penang has also released the details for this charity screening, which will be at the Golden Screen Cinema at Queensbay Mall on 21 July 2019 at 10 o'clock in the morning.
Tickets are available from the Free School office as well as from The Old Frees' Association. They are priced at RM100 each and the proceeds will be channelled to the PFS Foundation Fund. I do hope that the Old Frees and non-Old Free well-wishers will seize the opportunity to go and watch the documentary. Please do not let any personal hang-ups prevent you from re-living and appreciating your good old schooldays.
The Penang Governor will be present and from what I know from people in the OFA management committee, the Chief Minister has also been invited. Hope he will give some face and attend.
Here is the teaser trailer for anyone who haven't seen it.
Note: The School That Built A Nation was commissioned by the Old Frees' Association Kuala Lumpur & Selangor as their contribution towards Penang Free School's Bicentenary in 2016, chronicling the history of Free School right up till the Bicentenary celebrations. This documentary completes the contributions by the three PFS alumni associations in Malaysia and Singapore. In 2012, The Old Frees' Association had produced the book, Fidelis, while The Old Frees' Association Singapore came out with Live Free in 2016.
