Heng Ee High School 恆毅中學

S.M.J.K. Heng Ee (20 May 2012)


Heng Ee High School (Malay: Sekolah Menengah Jenis Kebangsaan Heng Ee, Traditional Chinese: 恆毅中學, Simplified Chinese: 恒毅中学) is one of the major Chinese schools in Penang. It was founded by Belgian Roman Catholic priest Father Arthur A. Julien, from the Missions étrangères de Paris in 1957.

Father Julien arrived in Malaya in 1952. He served as parish priest of the Church of Our Lady of Sorrows from 1961 to 1962, and as assistant parish priest to the Church of the Holy Spirit (now Cathedral of the Holy Spirit) with Father Paul Decroix between 1976 and 1985. Father Julien's work extended beyond the church. He conducted missionary work with the community in places like Batu Maung, Bayan Lepas and Sungai Dua, and also regularly visited the detainees in Pulau Jerejak. His ability to converse in Mandarin, and later Hokkien, endeared him to the local community.

Father Julien set up Heng Ee High School along Hamilton Road and Heng Ee Primary School within the grounds of the Church of Our Lady of Sorrows along Macalister Road. His passing on 11 September, 2004, brought mourners from all walks of life to his funeral.

Father Julien is honoured today by having a road named after him. Jalan Father A. Julien is located off Free School Road, just beside Heng Ee High School, a fitting location in memory of the founder of the school.

In memory of his contribution, the Arthur Julien Memorial was unveiled in 2001. It stands on the grounds of Heng Ee High School.
