Education
Children attend schooling in various school but mostly prefer to study in the nearby primary and secondary schools. There is no bus or any means of transportation service provided for the school children because traditionally, parents or family members will send their children to the schools themselves, usually early morning and the afternoon . Some of the school children even prefer to walk and cycle to their schools because it is just across the street. A pedestrian bridge was built to join Kampung Kopisan Baru and Kampung Tersusun Kampung Pulai to ease the travel between these two neighborhood, therefore people don't have to risk their lives crossing the busy Jalan Gopeng.

Famous quotes containing the word education:
“Major [William] McKinley visited me. He is on a stumping tour.... I criticized the bloody-shirt course of the canvass. It seems to me to be bad “politics,” and of no use.... It is a stale issue. An increasing number of people are interested in good relations with the South.... Two ways are open to succeed in the South: 1. A division of the white voters. 2. Education of the ignorant. Bloody-shirt utterances prevent division.”
—Rutherford Birchard Hayes (1822–1893)
“In the years of the Roman Republic, before the Christian era, Roman education was meant to produce those character traits that would make the ideal family man. Children were taught primarily to be good to their families. To revere gods, one’s parents, and the laws of the state were the primary lessons for Roman boys. Cicero described the goal of their child rearing as “self- control, combined with dutiful affection to parents, and kindliness to kindred.””
—C. John Sommerville (20th century)
“It is not every man who can be a Christian, even in a very moderate sense, whatever education you give him. It is a matter of constitution and temperament, after all. He may have to be born again many times. I have known many a man who pretended to be a Christian, in whom it was ridiculous, for he had no genius for it. It is not every man who can be a free man, even.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
