Ex-Montfort Junior School student hopes to reconnect with teachers who changed his life over 30 years ago
Ex-Montfort Junior School student hopes to reconnect with teachers who changed his life over 30 years ago
Some teachers leave a mark that lasts a lifetime.
It's been more than three decades, but one former student has never forgotten his teachers.
A Stomper reached out to Stomp in the hope of reconnecting with three educators who taught him at Montfort Junior School in 1993:
Ms Serena Chow
Mr Mohamed Musa Taub
Mr Nurisham Ismail
"These teachers played a meaningful role in my formative years," he shared. "I've been trying to reach them to express my gratitude and hopefully reconnect after all these years."
Despite trying conventional channels and alumni networks, the Stomper has not been able to locate them.
He believes Stomp's "reach and reputation for meaningful stories that reconnect people and communities" might help track them down or at least spread the word.
If you know any of the teachers mentioned above, or have information that could help the Stomper reconnect with them, please contact Stomp at stomp@sph.com.sg or via WhatsApp at 9384 3761.

'I'm hungry. Cannot meh?!' — Stranger who snatched toast and walked away from diner at Toast Box asks
Photo: Toast Box FB SINGAPORE: A diner patronising the Toast Box outlet at Jurong Point was left speechless after a stranger snatched food off her tray. The diner told citizen journalism portal Stomp that the incident took place on Sunday afternoon (June 1), around 12:30 p.m. She said, 'This auntie sat at the table next to my family for quite some time. She didn't order anything to eat or drink. Then suddenly, she stood up, stretched her hands across to our table, snatched a piece of our peanut toast, ate it, and walked away!' The diner added, 'We were too shocked to react.' Interestingly, the family bumped into the same woman at the same outlet looking for another target, around the same time the next day. The diner decided to confront the woman and demanded an explanation from the stranger for her behaviour. Instead of apologising or expressing remorse, the woman allegedly shouted, 'I am hungry and I want to eat! Cannot meh?!' The diner urged Singaporeans to beware of such individuals. She added, 'Her hands are so fast! … much faster than crows snatching food!'

Kohli dedicates IPL title to former Bengaluru team mates de Villiers, Gayle
Cricket - Indian Premier League - IPL - Final - Royal Challengers Bengaluru v Punjab Kings - Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, India - June 4, 2025 Royal Challengers Bengaluru's Virat Kohli celebrates with the trophy and teammates after winning the Indian Premier League REUTERS/Amit Dave Cricket - Indian Premier League - IPL - Final - Royal Challengers Bengaluru v Punjab Kings - Narendra Modi Stadium, Ahmedabad, India - June 4, 2025 Royal Challengers Bengaluru's Virat Kohli celebrates with the trophy and his wife Anushka Sharma after winning the Indian Premier League REUTERS/Amit Dave Virat Kohli dedicated Royal Challengers Bengaluru's first Indian Premier League (IPL) title in 17 seasons to his former teammates AB de Villiers and Chris Gayle and said the duo had given their heart and soul to make the franchise a success. Bengaluru beat Punjab Kings by six runs in the final in Ahmedabad, Gujarat on Tuesday, a long-awaited title win which reduced 36-year-old Kohli to tears. Kohli has been with the franchise since the inaugural 2008 edition of the league and helped them reach three previous finals in 2009, 2011 and 2016, losing all three. Former South Africa wicketkeeper-batter De Villiers played for Bengaluru from 2011-2021 while ex-West Indies all-rounder Gayle represented them from 2011 to 2017, with both experiencing the heartache of lost finals beside Kohli. "I've shared my prime years with them and I know how much we tried to win this and we felt we were so close couple of times," Kohli told broadcasters. "We were such a good team and we had that explosiveness in our team but we could never cross the line and all of us have that hurt because we gave our prime years to this franchise and we really, really — from the bottom of our hearts — wanted to win that title for RCB. "I promise you this feels like 10 times more special just because of the fact that these two are standing next to us." De Villiers and Gayle joined the Bengaluru team on the podium to raise the trophy. "The title is honestly as much theirs as it's mine because it's the connection you see when they come to Bengaluru," Kohli said. "When they come you see how people love them and they go absolutely berserk because they know and they appreciate that they've given their heart and soul for this team ..."
