MELAKA: The Parents and Teachers Association of SMK Infant Jesus Convent credits the close cooperation between teachers and students for the school's academic achievement.
"Today, we are elated to witness one of our students, Chong Xin Hui, emerging as the best SPM student in the state by achieving 10A+," said its chairman, Daniel Ang Yam Seng, after honouring the high achievers in a brief ceremony at the school on Tuesday (June 4).
