PETALING JAYA: The School enrolment has breached the 5000 students. On a school compound of merely 10 acres, this is close to the saturation point. It sets a limit to the activities the school can carry out. To upgrade the school environment and extend the available space, the school has embarked on the building an eleven-storey multifunctional complex named Chong Hwa Complex. Housed in this complex are an auditorium, a theatre, a history galley, a centre for technology, creativity and humanities, an IT centre, a library, offices and staffroom.
According to statement, to raise fund for its construction, the school is organising this interschool Badminton Invitational Tournament. The tournament is initiated by our reknown badminton player, Dato Wira Lee Chong Wei, organized by Chong Hwa Independent High School, with Malaysia Purple League (Petaling) as co-organiser.
The tournament will be held on 24 Mar 2017(Friday) from 8:00a.m. to 6:00p.m. at Sport Arena Sentosa, Taman Sri Sentosa. The fundraising target is RM 1 million to be channeled to the Chong Hwa Complex Building Fund.
The construction work on the Chong Hwa Complex commenced in March 2016 and work has since been progressing steadily. Though we have raised RM20 million so far, we still fall short of the estimated construction cost of RM 47 million.
We sincerely appeal to supporters of Chinese education to generously support this event and help us to succeed in this expansion project. Together, let us see to its successful completion before the 100th school anniversary.
