OLD SCHOOL LEAVEN MAGAZINES FOR STATE ARCHIVES

to Mdm Hu, State Archives Officer
SPSAA have submitted reproduction copies of our historical School Leaven magazines to the SABAH STATE ARCHIVES for public viewing and references for the future generation of St Paulians.

5 copies of the reproduced old Leavens for Year 1970, 1971, 1972 ,1973 & 1974 were handed over to the Archives officer on the 12th Nov 2018. With another copy for the Year 1966 to be submitted later, the full complete set of the magazines is hence in the safe keeping of the State Archives.

The idea of submitting these magazines to the State Archives is to ensure they are properly stored and easy references for the public and St Paulians to check information regarding the school, principals, teachers, schoolmates or the likes.

The first magazine was produced in 1966 and stopped production in 1974. However, the school revived the production again in 2011. During the school's 50th anniversary in 2008, a special edition of the Leaven was specifically produced to mark the auspicious occasion. 

Consequently, SPSAA would like to thank a St Paulian , Mr. Chau Fook Khiong who had earlier submitted the 1967, 1968 & 1969 issues to the Archives on behalf of the school in the early 1970s. 

St Paulians who are interested to buy reproduction copies of these old magazines may contact the Secretary of SPSAA.
