The Methodist Girls' School (MGS) consists of a semi-government aided primary (Sekolah Kebangsaan Perempuan Methodist MGS) and secondary school (Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Perempuan Methodist MGS) in Jalan Raya Barat within the district of Klang.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=SMK (P) Methodist, Klang )〕 The school was established by Ruth Eklund on 24 May 1924 after she discovered that there were a number of female pupils in the Anglo Chinese School, Klang during the academic year. ==History== In 1921 when Selangor was occupied by the British, Reverend Abel Eklund and his wife Ruth Eklund arrived in Klang and Rev. Eklund succeeded Mr. Lim Chin Kheng as the principal of the Anglo Chinese School. When the Eklunds arrived, a number of girls were already attending the school. In 24 May 1924, with support and help from the church and Sir Richard Winstedt, Ruth Eklund founded the Methodist Girls' School in Jalan Bukit Jawa, Klang. In 1926, four classrooms and an office were built at Jalan Sultan. One more classroom was built with donation from Sultan Alam Shah, making the Methodist Girls’ School a government-aided school. In 1934, 7 students sat for the Junior Cambridge examination for the first time in the school’s history. Ruth Eklund served as the school's principal until 1927. In 1936, Eklund returned to the school to help with the extension building of two more classrooms and the renovation of the original buildings. In 1938, 3 students sat for the Senior Cambridge examination for the first time in the school’s history.〔 The school reopened in September 1945 after a shut down caused by the Malay Peninsula occupation of the Japanese army in February 1942 during the World War II. The nearby Anglo Chinese School became the head office of the Japanese army during the period. In 1952, a building consisting of eight classrooms, a science lab, and an office was built on a section of the 19 km² land in Jalan Raya Barat the school acquired for RM12500. The building, used for the secondary school, was officiated by Raja Jemaah Tengku Ampuan Selangor on 10 May 1952. In 1954, a second building consisting of four classrooms, a Home Economics (KHB) lab, and a hall was built. The building was officiated by Raja Jemaah on 10 April 1952. In 1955, the building in Jalan Sultan, used as the primary school, was abolished by the local municipal council, Majlis Perbandaraan Klang. A new building was built as a substitute for the abolished building. The new building, officiated by Tengku Ampuan Rahimah on 26 July 1957, consisted of six classrooms, an office for teachers, a hall, a library, and an office.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Sejarah Sekolah )〕 The school was then separated into a primary and a secondary school, each directed by a different principal. In 1962, a new building consisting three classrooms, two science labs, a home science lab, a geography class, and toilets was built. In 1969, an area of land was acquired and a building consisting of a science lab, two home science labs, and four classrooms was built.〔 In 1975, the school started a Lower Six class for art stream students. Starting from 1976, students of the school are able to sit for STPM without traveling to other examination centres. In 2001, a new mosque for Muslim students and faculties was built to replace the former mosque made from shipping containers. A canteen was built the same year. In 12 April 2014, the school held the Gala Nite, a fundraising gala, in Hin Hua High School. The raised funds were used for upgrading the school's square, facilities and the Eklund Hall. The school is one of the few government schools in Malaysia that offers Japanese language classes. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Methodist Girls' School, Klang」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
