SCHOOL HISTORY

HISTORY TIME ~ ~ MBSKL was founded by Rev. Dr. William T. Kensett , a naval officer of the Royal Navy battleship HMS Orion. In July 1897 he decided to set up a church and school for the Tamils in Kuala Lumpur, and he left the British Navy. A shophouse was secured at the corner of Batu Road and Java Street, and the predominantly Tamil school was named the Anglo-Tamil School. In 1904, the school moved to its current premises on Petaling Hill and was renamed the Methodist Boys' School Kuala Lumpur by Rev William E Horley , the name used until this day.

KNOWING MY SCHOOL- ANTHEM

MBS ANTHEM  The School Song was composed in 1948 by former principal, Mr. Hugh F. Clancy. The music was harmonised by N.Swan, in the same year. The school anthem was sung over Radio Malaya in 1949 by the school choir. Go foward MBS, Filled with courage fine, With your colours flying, We will cheer you all the time, And so you go foward MBS, On to victory, Work for the fame, Of our fair name, Forward we must play the game.  The Malay Version was drafted during a competition to translate the school song in Malay in which Cheok Heng Wai of 5 Mori (1995), at that time, won the competition and this was the lyrics that followed. MALAY VERSION Majulah MBS Penuh azam baru Dengan semangat waja Kita menjulangkan namamu Majulah MBS Raih kejayaan Harumkan namamu selalu Kekalkan keunggulan This is the school song which I played.
