PASIR SALAK, El Sky News – The management of Sekolah Rendah Agama Rakyat (SRAR) Madrasah Martaul Ulum in Tanjong Sari has issued an earnest appeal to relevant authorities and the public for the upgrading of its aging facilities. The school, which has been a cornerstone of local education since its construction in the early 1980s, is currently facing significant structural challenges that hinder its daily operations.
Headmistress Noor Azizah Mohd. Shari highlighted that after more than 40 years of service, the building requires urgent attention to ensure a safe and conducive learning environment for its young students.
A Community Landmark in Need Despite the school’s historical significance in the Tanjong Sari area, time and weather have taken a toll on its physical structure. The management has identified several critical areas that require immediate restoration:
- Structural Integrity: Issues such as sinking floors and visible wall cracks that necessitate professional assessment.
- Weather Protection: A leaking roof system that causes disruptions during the monsoon seasons.
- Security & Fittings: Rusted window frames and damaged perimeter fencing that need replacement to ensure student safety.
“Our goal is to provide our students with the best possible environment to grow and learn,” Noor Azizah stated. “The building has served us well for decades, but it has now reached a point where a comprehensive upgrade is essential for the future.”
The Heart of Local Education SRAR Madrasah Martaul Ulum remains a vital institution for religious and primary education within the Pasir Salak constituency. The plea for assistance is framed as a collaborative call to action, inviting government agencies, corporate bodies through Social Responsibility (CSR) programs, and well-wishers to help revitalize this community asset.
Local observers note that upgrading such institutions is crucial for rural development, ensuring that children in every part of the country have access to equitable educational facilities. The school management remains optimistic, hoping that the visibility of their situation will lead to a successful restoration project.
Hope for a Brighter Future The proposed upgrades are not merely about aesthetics but about sustaining the spirit of learning in Tanjong Sari. A revitalized campus would allow the school to continue its mission of nurturing well-rounded individuals for many more decades to come.
As the school continues to serve its community with dedication, the management welcomes any form of dialogue or support from parties interested in contributing to the welfare of the students and the preservation of this educational landmark.
