Wesley Methodist School Klang

Wesley Methodist School Klang (6 July, 2016)


Wesley Methodist School Klang (GPS: 3.04193, 101.44517) is a private school in Klang, Selangor. Located on Jalan Dato Hamzah, it traces its beginnings to the efforts of Methodist missionaries Mrs D.L. Gulland and Mrs G.S. Arumugam, who founded it as the Methodist Girls Continuation School in 1949, in the aftermath of the Second World War. The war has disrupted education for many children of school going age, so the school was set up specially to cater to the education of girls who were over the school-going age.

From its founding in 1949, Wesley Methodist School Klang had undergoing a few name changes. It was named Eklund Methodist Girls School in 1958, in honour of education pioneers, Reverend & Mrs Abel Eklund. The school was renamed once more, to Methodist Institute, in 1974, and to Methodist High School in 1980, when it became co-educational. It was given its present name in 2009, and is often shortened to WMS Klang.

Hello and thanks for reading this page. My name is Timothy and my hobby is in describing places so that I can share the information with the general public. My website has become the go to site for a lot of people including students, teachers, journalists, etc. whenever they seek information on places, particularly those in Malaysia and Singapore. I have been doing this since 5 January 2003, for over twenty years already. You can read about me at Discover Timothy. By now I have compiled information on thousands of places, mostly in Peninsular Malaysia and Singapore, and I continue to add more almost every day. My goal is to describe every street in every town in Malaysia and Singapore.
