Anglo-Chinese School, Ipoh
- Anglo-Chinese School, Ipoh
The Anglo-Chinese School in Ipoh is the oldest and one of the most prestigious schools in the state of Perak, Malaysia.
This school caters to students from the Standard One to Sixth Forms (7 to 19 years of age). It has impressive facilities such as a swimming pool, an indoor badminton stadium, a gymnasium, an extensive library and a fully equipped computer lab.
Rev. E. Horley founded the school on 5 August 1895 by housing the school in a small attap-roofed Malay house adjoining the Police barracks behind the old Land Office which was later demolished to make way for a new million-dollar mosque.
The Wesley Church, incidentally, is the oldest Methodist building on the Federation of Malaya mainland.
School song (English Version):
Not so very long ago
More than hundred years or so
Horley dauntless hero came
Founded our beloved school
Ipoh Anglo-Chinese School
Through it then was new in name
But the banner then unfurled
Now its known throughout the world
ACS, ACS,
Your country can depend on you
Years we spend in your classrooms
Will help to make us brave and true
ACS, ACS,
To do the right we're not afraid
And we're proud we're the students
Of the ACS
