Oh, when the saints go marching inOh, when the saints go marching in
Lord, how I want to be in that number
When the saints go marching in ...
Do you remember the song Johannians85?
The photo above was taken in 1978 and the venue is the ever historical Stadium Merdeka. Only selected schools can have their school sports day at the historical site. What a proud moment guys! This is the site that hosted the MERDEKA DECLARATION by Tunku Abdul Rahman and the Malay Sultans back in 1957. (Hooked to youtube for more insights of the venue.)
Johannians85 above are marching during the opening of the sports day. Please take note that this is St.John's Primary school (2) Sports Day.The sports house is "Rumah Anthony" (ini bukan Anthonysamy or Mark Anthony tau!!!). The house color is blue. They paraded with "kaki ayam" (lari berganti ganti dalam guni), their school shoes (Bata, badminton master green and red) and the ever popular Fong Keong shoes. There were no spikes, no NIKEs, no ASICs but ada juga ADIDAS (figure out guys)
Trivia: Who at that time wears Adidas for sports meet and PE!
Clue: An ex Deputy Minister from the cabinet lead by a Johannian.
Those who got the right answer wil get to share the famous fisball dip at the school canteen. Remember to use your own toothpicks for the fishball but please share the same bowl of "kuah" .
In the photo above, you will notice Ungku Zaki, Dominic Lim, Jeeta, Saiful Azuan, Ridzlan Jaafar, Fouad Adam and the award winning composer Aidit Alfian. Can you spot Safuan Taib, the Malaysian SEA Games sprint runner. (no prizes as he is not Johannians85, he is from Johannians84)
