BBGS Gala Reunion

To all former BBGS or Bukit Bintang Girls School student, there will be a Gala Reunion on 4 August 2009. The Reunion will be at Pavilion, Bukit Bintang where the school once stood.

For those who don't know, BBGS was previously located at where Pavilion in Jalan Bukit Bintang now stands. It was demolished in 2001 as the area was no longer conducive for a school, with the mushrooming of shopping complexes and hotels nearby. Although the school building no longer stands, the spirit lives on. It would be a historic event for all of us to gather once again at our former school premises i.e. Pavilion on 4th August 2009 to not only meet old and lost friends but also for the launching of Elena Cooke Education Fund, the former headmistress of BBGS.

The highlight of the event will be the launch of the fund at 11am with Miss Cooke as the guest of honour. Souvenirs and cupcakes will be sold to raise funds and there will be an exhibition featuring the early pioneers of BBGS, who were all women! :)
