Shared Leadership evolves further.....
  ..The Moderators make their mark.... 

It was in 1964 that the Moderator system was  introduced: a teacher was appointed as Moderator  for each form, whose task it would be  to regulate the life of the form, both in studies and in extra curricular activities. The system was a success from the  outset, and has remained popular with staff and students alike,largely because of the wisdom and effectiveness  of those selected for the task.

A true Michaelian at heart ,Mr Chan Khin Seng has graced the corridors of our school both as a student and a great teacher. His teaching career at St Michael's stretched from 1944 to 1976 for an amazng 32 years.His major teaching contributions included the post of Form 5 Moderator while his business acumen was put into the organization of annual funfairs between 1960 and 1970. Outside of school, he served as Honorary Treasurer of the Malayan Table Tennis Association. Even when he retired, he continued to be a great champion of the Old Michaelians' Association where he served as 1st Vice President for many years. He is held in the highest regard by the Lasalle brothers and by the students he moulded.  
     During his student days at SMI he remembers the fun of playing glass marbles which was a national pastime for teenagers in the 1940s - 1960s. He often travelled to Taiping with the SMI team to play football and hockey against St George's Institution. He was also a reserve in the Perak table tennis team in the 1950s.
