From the President's desk

Assalamu'alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh,
Dear Srikandis,

Alhamdullilah the 22nd AGM of Srikandi Tun Fatimah was carried out within
the ambit of the Constitution of our Society. The proceedings went smoothly
in accordance to the Agenda. There were tablings of the various reports by
the EXCO 2007-2009. The reports were accepted with some amendments.

Srikandis, the good news is, through the committment of the EXCO 2007-2009
and our members we have now a sum of $$$$$ in fixed deposit which will
be untouched ( a resolution to enact such was passed in the AGM ) which will
form the foundation of funds towards having Srikandi Tun Fatimah own
premise. So Srikandis, lets link our arms together to continue to increase
the fund for the Srikandi Tun Fatimah building. And heartiest felt
congratulations to the EXCO 2007-2009 to have been able to pull such a feat!

In accordance to the Constitution of our society a new set of office-bearers
was elected. The following are the office-bearers:

President : SK Mek Yam Jusoh ('72)
VP1 : SK Siti Nor Rina Nawawi (72);
VP2 : SK Sharifah Zaida Nurlisha (82)
Sec : SK Dalina Ismail (74);
A Sec : SK Maria Haron (87);
Treasurer: SK Norlia Roslie (87)

AJK
SK Harsa Afina Mat Sakim (90)
SK Habibah Baharudin (65)
SK Dr Mariana Hj Ahamad (82)
SK Adibah Kasmuni (83)
SK Mumtazah (83)
SK Wardah Zainal Abidin (74)

Auditors:
SK Shi'aratul Akmar (82)
SK Najwa Hisham (80)

The above office bearers look forward to contribute to our society, the
Srikandi Tun Fatimah. However without the assistance from all members the
wish would remain a wish. We look forward to have an interactive forum and
exchange of ideas for the betterment of our society, Srikandi Tun Fatimah
and its members as well as be the sounding board for our alma mater,
Sekolah Tun Fatimah.

The nucleus of our communications and networking will be the Batch
Coordinators. For a start, I would like to call upon the Batch Coordinators
to contact SK Maria Haron.

We look forward to have a meaningful 2009-2011.

On behalf of the EXCO 2009-2011,
Yours sincerely,

SK Mek Yam Jusoh (72)
President.

JOM DINE AND FUND

FAQ Dinner S4S


1. S: Dinner untuk apa ni?
J: Dinner ini untuk lancar dan kutip dana untuk projek yang khusus untuk kita-kita, bekas pelajar STF. Nama projek ini ialah S4S, singkatan untuk Srikandi-for-Srikandi. Itulah sebabnya harganya RM3000 per meja. InsyaAllah kita harapkan lebih 60% dapat dijana sebagai derma kepada tabung. Jika ada di antara kita yang tak dapat hadir ke dinner ini, jangan risau, masih boleh menderma kepada tabung S4S selepas ini.


2. S: Bila dan Di mana dinner ni?
J: Tempat: Impiana KLCC Hotel & Spa, 13, Jalan Pinang, Kuala Lumpur. Ia sederet dengan Ascot.
Tarikh: 21 Feb 2009,
Sabtu - mula lepas maghrib,
8.00-10.30pm.
Pakaian: Glam-Glam
STRICTLY FOR WOMEN ONLY !
Peta: http://www.booking.com/hotel/my/impiana-klcc-spa.html?aid=304264



3. S: Senang tak nak park kereta nanti?
J: Memang susah sikit sebab tempatnya di hotel tu terhad. So jika bawa kereta dan tidak mahu guna khidmat "valet", boleh park di tempat parking umum di hadapan hotel. So perlahankan kereta dan himpit ke kiri selepas melepasi Mandarin Oriental, bagi signal kiri dan lihat sign board "PARKING" di sebelah kiri. Harga, tak berapa pasti...maybe RM6 kot. Gelap sikit dan jaga sikit kalau pakai kasut tinggi bila jalan kat tempat parking tu. ok.
Then cross the street to the hotel. (ada zebra crossing and flicker-flicker your eye-lashes for the cars to stop;)



4. S: Apa agenda dinner nanti?
J: Seperti biasa, agenda utama dinner, adalah makan... tapi dinner kali ini, ada 3 perkara unik: a) Makan cara BUFFET sebabnya: lebih banyak pilihan dan boleh ikut selera masing2.
b) Dinner: tidak formal dan mirip kepada zaman "Annual Party" di STF dulu-dulu. Penghibur: Kita-kita jelah.. Adik2 zaman moden, katanya dah tak ada annual party.
c) Menderma sambil bersilaturrahim

Namun, kita akan bahagikan dinner kita kepada 3 bahagian utama:
Bahagian pertama: iaitu sebelum makan - penerangan mengenai S4S ni. Ucapan2 pembukaan mestilah ada.
Bahagian ke-2: Makan. sesi berkenalan 'networking' dan pertunjukan (rahsia...tungguu) Bahagian ke-3: Deklamasi sajak, gurindam, dsb, karaoke oleh kita-kita.
Lucky draw insyaAllah ada juga.


5. S: Bila dan bagaimana saya nak kena bayar untuk dinner ni?
J: Oh soalan cepu mas tu!! Tolonglah bayar sebelum datang ke dinner. Ini amat memudahkan AJK dinner yang sudah memang nak patah kaki dan tangan....
Ada 2 cara bayaran:
i) bayar kepada ANIS, masuk ke dalam akaun persatuan: MAYBANK 01410 5411706 PBPP SEK TUN FATIMAH JB (ini tak boleh buat via maybank2u; bankin slip perlu bawa ke dinner)
or:
ii) bayar melalui maybank2u: akaun Siti Normala MAYBANK: 1627 4009 0897


6. S: ehmm apa lagi nak tanya ek? oh.. apa yang patut saya sediakan ke dinner tu nanti?
J: ok.. kita akan buka meja jualan barangan SkTF sikit, so bawalah cash, sebab credit card belum buka akaun dengan visa/mastercard lagi, dan oh ye tolong bawa BANYAK NAMECARD sendiri. Pen dan kertas akan disediakan oleh penganjur.

Jumpa di sana di sana di sanaaaaaaa!!


Kak Wa/ SK Wardah

We win again

Salam Semua

Allahamdullilah the STF basketball team has brought the VICTORY again by retaining the Piala Toh Puan Hajah Zainab for the 2nd consecutive times on May 26th 2008 at 4.20 pm @ SMSAH, Jitra.

I must admit our gals had the right level of confidence throughout the tournament to trash all our opponents (as written by a spectator in his email below). They trained very hard to defend the championship. Syukran! no major injuries and one of the key players whom suffered torn sole ligament recovered just on time to head for HSKBP. Official results for all our games:

STF vs SEMASHUR 60-10
STF vs SMSKUC 59-30
STF vs SAINA 66-04
STF vs SMSTMFP 66-14

Semi-final: STF vs SSP 41-14
Final: STF vs SMESH 48-17

Our center, Siti Amirah Binti Zainal (Mira - F5) was voted the Most Valuable Player. Sains Sabah was the runner up, Sek Seri Puteri came out 3rd and Sains Kuching was fourth.

The 3rd season of R2V has concluded . As the coordinator for the project, I wish to extend my heartiest appreciation to the following individuals and parties for their support and commitment:

* Pn Hajah Junaidi (Pengetua STF), Pen Kanan (Pn Hajah Saidah, Pn Kamisah, Tn Hj Azman), basketball teachers (En Hanif & Cik Falisha) and drivers (En Sharom & En Salleh) for the full cooperation extended throughout the season. Tanpa kerjasama padu pihak sekolah & R2V, mustahil projek ini tiba ke tahap ini. Terima kasih kerana menyokong sepenuhnya segala bentuk program yang dicadangkan oleh R2V untuk membangunkan satu pasukan yang mantap. Penghargaan juga untuk penyediaan tempat kediaman utk kegunaan jurulatih-jurulatih R2V di sekolah semenjak Disember 2007. Urusan pentadbiran, perjalanan pelajar & pengangkutan diuruskan dengan lancar.

* To the panel of coaches headed by Mr. Liew. I am really amaze with your ability to predict very accurate opponents' strategies, winning margins and your strategies to counter attack our opponents. No wonder people in the field call you 'Tok Bomoh'. I suppose the HUGE winning margin in each game is a reflection of the effort you have put in to develope the team since 2006, We don't know how to express our gratitude anymore.... Coach Halim, the ever calm & detail coach whom was always there to help coach the girls during the weekdays and his 'ever willing' attitude to learn from his Head Coach. Please extend our appreciation to yr wife, Nurul & children. Terima kasih daun keladi. SK Safina - too bad you were unable to take leave from work during the HSKBP but your coaching effort over the weekends will be remembered by the players. I can understand your frustrations when you were not able to travel to STF during the weekends due to work commitment. My husband, Sdr. Ihsan whom started as a co-coordinator of MCKK Quest-4-Glory but has moved into coaching the Dynamites as well since he has been going to STF very frequent this year. I saw and heard other SBPs struggled to find a coach.. I'm grateful to God for sending STF a panel of coaches ranging from the ages of 30s, 40s, approaching 50s & 60s. Aren't we blessed?


* Srikandi EXCOs: from the President (Kak Mariamah), VP (SK Sue), Secretary (SK Hanazita), Treasurer (SK Anis) & AJK: thank you for making my work very, very easy. Frankly, I love the phone calls when Anis would say, "K.ana, R2V nak pakai duit tak?" "How much do you need for the tournament?" My request has never, never been turned down or questioned. Excos, I truly appreciate your trust on my judgement. K.Mariamah, your forever willing to 'treat the girls for a makan & pass the bill to me' promises had delighted and motivated the girls each time I made the announcements to them prior to an important tournament. Thank you for your staunch support and concern for the progress of the project. Also, appreciate our private conversations over the phone, "berapa tak cukup, bagitau Kak Marimah..." The girls said Thank you for your Pizza treat that nite.


* To all Srikandi & Srikanda yang menghulur pelbagai bentuk bantuan & sokongan seperti berikut:
o SK Ieja - sentiasa menjadi penaja isotonic & air TESCO baik di peringkat zon mahupun kebangsaan
o SK Hana, SK Syahida & SK Lala, thank you for taking care of the junior Dynamites during our stay in Jitra & also for being their drivers. I tak termampu nak menguruskan mereka seorang.

Both of them were busy covering both games at the courts for the Dynamites and Cagers, majlis solat hajat at our homestay the nite before the final, majlis penyampaian hadiah at SMSAH & Cagers/Dynamites mini victory celebration at the homestay till mid-night. We can't wait to see the pictures taken. Maybe boleh put them on SK website album? Jangan lupa tahun depan di Seri Puteri ya...

Bagaimanalah kami nak balas jasa u sekeluarga?

I'm sure there must be individuals whom I unintentionally forgot... please accept my thanks for your contributions but my apologies for forgetting. All in all, R2V cannot bring back the VICTORY to STF without A BIG TEAM of people working hand in hand, trusting each other and heading towards the same objectives and passions.

Wassalam,

R2V Coordinator

p/s Someone related to me a remark made by some spectators: "... pasukan STF ni kalau lawan dengan boys team pun boleh menang..." bunyi funny but its an honour for the coaches. Syabas, Coaches!

Preparation for HKSBP (PPM)

Assalamualaikum Srikandi Sekalian,


Untuk makluman semua, HSKBP Zone Selatan akan berlangsung pada bulan April ini di Sek Men Agama Persekutuan, Labu, Negeri Sembilan.Tarikh belum ditetapkan lagi dan akan diberitahu sebaik sahaja dapat confirmation dari pihak sekolah. In preparation for that, R2V sudah pun mula menjalankan latihan yang perlu kerana seperti biasa our challenge is 'membancuh ramuan baru' - pemain Tingkatan 5 2007 meninggalkan kita & a new combination has to be trained based on their skills, size, etc.

'Panel of Coaches' tahun ini, Mr.Liew, Sdr Halim, Sdr Ihsan and Sk Safina sedang bertungkus lumus untuk melatih pemain-pemain untuk tahun ini disebabkan ketiadaan pemain tingkatan 5 tahun lepas. Mr. Liew is actually trying out to form a 2008 team. To test the new combination, we will be participating in JB Open U18 (yang sedang berlansung sekarang hinggan Mac ) dan MSSD JB nanti.

As previous years, our main objective is to win the PTPTZ Cup which will be held from May 24-30th di Sek Men Sains Sultan Abdul Halim, Jitra Kedah. To get to the finals in Kedah, we have to become the champ or runner up for the Zone level. In view of this, I need help from all of you on the following aspects. Kindly pass the words around to your batchmates who are not in the e-group, pls.

a) Sponsor for jersey. Each pair is $80 min. we intend to make only 1 set this year since we can use set lama yang tidak koyak/buruk.

b) Sponsor for players shoes. We managed to get a pair of shoe for $160 (Retail at $259). We think kesian juga budak-budak perlu bayar dari their pocket money. The shoe is rather expensive to some because a good pair like this could last till the finals in May. We are looking for sponsors for the main 15 deserving players. If you are not able to sponsor a pair, pls sponsor sebelah ($80)- kiri or kanan. Kalau nak sponsor whole team pun ok jugak! If a particular batch sponsored the whole team shoes or jerseys especially when that batch celebrate their XX years anniversary - lagi bagus!

c) We have to have an intensive camp during the school holidays from 8-16th March because if we don't, we can't be tip top for the Zone Selatan kerana biasalah if we don't train, stamina menurun & hilang game temperment. In view of that, any amount of CASH would be much appreciated. We are planning to bring the top 15 players only (due to budget). We need about $5000 for food & transportation. We need Mr. Liew's help for that .

d) For the national level in May nanti, ada srikandi yang menetap di Jenan (daerah Kubang Pasu) boleh volunteer rumah or bilik utk R2V (2 or 3 person )? We also need help if you could recommend an apartment, homestay or hotel yang berdekatan dgn SEMSAH. Any Srikandi would like to come to support?

Should you need more information, pls do not hesitate to contact us at either iseana@gmail.com, hanazita@gmail.com or safinaalfian@yahoo.com . Kindly deposit your contribution to Laila Mehat MBB Account: 564810050031.

Thank you and hope to get continous support from everyone.

We hope to be the CHAMP again for this year's PTPZ, insya Allah.
