He was in Princess Elizabeth Estate School in the 1970s.
Though he continues to reside in the Hillview area, he still reminisces about his days in the old primary school. He takes his children there now for walks and occasionally visits the old school building. The building that was our old primary school is now the United Medicare Nursing Centre.
Here are some photos SK Yum took of the old school building whilst it was under renovation last year.
Former students of P.E.E.S. will remember fondly these scenes.

| The school caretaker's quarters. There were 2 units housing the families working for the school. Many will recall the vegetable gardens planted around it. In my own days in the 1960s, it was always flooded with mud flowing from the construction of Bamboo Grove Park. |

| The old school store replaced by a new structure. The old store housed the school sports equipment and also the scouts den. |

| The drain which ran under the bridge leading to the school field. Remember catching fish and crabs from this stream? |
 |
| The new Nursing Home has built a new elevator at the far end of the school building. |
