MESSAGE from the Principal
Greetings to all!
We would like to give thanks to our Lord God Almighty for having successfully completed the first term of 2016 and we are now into the second term.
On 2 July 2016, we will be celebrating our 70 years of Methodist private education in Seremban. We want to thank parents for your support and hope you will be at our thanksgiving dinner and concert.
On 16 July 2016, WMSS is having an Open Day. This year we will conduct a workshop for Year 6 students in UPSR English. Parents, your friends and relatives who have children in Year 6 are most welcome to register for the workshop. They will learn English components in a fun way, be exposed to the new exam format of UPSR English 2016 and get to practise a sample paper in the new format.
For the second term we will focus on intensive preparation for public and final examinations. We have completed our co-curricular activities and this alloc ated time will be used to coach students in their academics. We continue to expose our students to external assessments in Mathematics, English and Creative Writing through The International Competitions and Assessments for Schools (ICAS). This school is transforming towards excellence and we endeavour to introduce students to a wider range of possibilities so that their minds are open and receptive to learning. PT3 students are in the midst of doing their History and Geography projects. PT3 Trial exam, SPM Trial 1, Trial 2, Mid Second Term tests and Final exams will follow suit. We recognize that regular attendance and punctuality are vital to a student’s success in school. With that in mind, we would like to work with you in maintaining the best possible attendance record for your child.
Dear parents, as part of this school community, we need your continual support. Let us work together to help the children to optimise their potential.

“Happy Teachers’ Day! That was the first greeting the teachers received when they arrived in school that morning. It was the first time after so long we celebrated this appreciation day on its actual date.
The celebration was held in the hall. The MOE Minister’s Speech was read out, teachers took their oath and sang the teacher’s day song and students rendered a few items. After the gift exchange, cake-cutting and photo-taking, the teachers challenged the students in several indoor games.

Basketball
The celebration concluded with a lunch treat from the school provided by our canteen caterer.
Teachers’ Day is indeed a great way to appreciate our teachers.
Thank you, Teachers!
