SJKC Moh Ghee (Pusat) 慕义华小(总)校

S.J.K. (C) Moh Ghee (Pusat), Penang (9 June 2012)


Moh Ghee Primary School (GPS: 5.4033, 100.31684), known today as SJKC Moh Ghee (Pusat) (Simplified Chinese: 慕义华小(总)校, Traditional Chinese: 慕義華小(總)校, or simply Moh Ghee Primary School, is a Chinese-medium co-educational primary school along Perak Lane, in George Town, Penang.

Moh Ghee Primary School today has about 250 pupils and 16 teachers. The school is ideal for primary pupils in the Perak Road and Jelutong areas. It is however within just a stone's throw from another Chinese-medium primary school, the Sum Sun Primary School.

Moh Ghee Primary School traces its history to 1918, when it was established through the funding of local businessmen and pillars of society. It began as a small attap shed in Jelutong. The Second World War caused an interruption to the running of the school, forcing its closure during the duration of the Japanese Occupation.

After the war was over, there was a high number of school-going children in Jelutong who needed to be educated. As the original site was deemed insufficient, a new one-acre site along Perak Lane was donated by local businessmen, and the new school building was completed in August, 1949. With the completion of the new school, Moh Ghee split into two schools, with the Perak Lane campus becoming known as Moh Ghee (Main) while the one at Jelutong became Moh Ghee Branch School.

About this website

Dear visitor, thank you so much for reading this page. My name is Timothy Tye and my hobby is to find out about places, write about them and share the information with you on this website. I have been writing this site since 5 January 2003. Originally (from 2003 until 2009, the site was called AsiaExplorers. I changed the name to Penang Travel Tips in 2009, even though I describe more than just Penang but everywhere I go (I often need to tell people that "Penang Travel Tips" is not just information about Penang, but information written in Penang), especially places in Malaysia and Singapore, and in all the years since 2003, I have described over 20,000 places.

While I try my best to provide you information as accurate as I can get it to be, I do apologize for any errors and for outdated information which I am unaware. Nevertheless, I hope that what I have described here will be useful to you.
