Brother Visitor’s Visit 2018

Today, the sight of a Lasallian brother walking the corridors of a La Salle school in his white robe is a rarity. It has been 9 years since the retirement of the last Lasallian Brother Director, Bro. Paul Ho, from St. Xavier’s Institution in Penang. Ironically, St. Xavier’s Institution is the first school established by the Lasallian Brothers in 1852. And it has been 2 years since the retirement of the last Lasallian Brother teacher, Bro. Michael Kum, from St. Francis Institution, Malacca.

Many young Lasallians today, not only have not seen a Brother in his robe but are unaware of who the Lasallian Brothers are or their contributions to the very school they are studying in, or the significant contributions the Brothers have made to Malaysian education.

This will change. The Brother visitor, will be making a tour off all the La Salle schools in Peninsular Malaysia, starting with the Klang Valley schools in May 2018, the Southern Schools in June 2018 and the Northern Schools in July 2018.

Brother Visitor will be visiting La Salle Schools on the following dates:

2 May 2018 – St. John’s Institution/La Salle Brickfields/La Salle Sentul
3 May 2018 – La Salle Petaling Jaya/La Salle Klang
27 June 2018 – St. Andrew’s Muar/St. Francis’ Institution Melaka
28 June 2018 – St. Paul’s Institution Seremban
For month of June and July, we are awaiting confirmation of dates from Brother Visitor.
