Stairway to Excellence


    In conjunction with the “Majlis Anugerah Cemerlang 2012”, which was held on 7 April 2012, we invited the Director of State Education Department, Yang Bahagia Encik  Mohd  Nor bin A Ghani to officiate the ceremony. As he was unable to make it, so his place was replaced by our first Principal of SMK Taman Daya 2 cum the previous Head of PPD Pasir Gudang , Puan Hajjah Saadiah binti Said. In the welcoming speech by our Principal, Puan Hajjah Jamiaah binti Kechut mentioned that the school web site, both English blog and bulletin and celebration towards a decade of the school would be launched. Apart from that, there were also performances by collaboration of teachers and students.

Haziqah receiving prize from our former school principal, Puan Haajah Saadiah

Priceless expression while receiving her results on the day when the SPM result was being announced

She was one of the female photographers who always took shots in most of the school events. After spending 2 years of being a loyal member of the photography club, it had taught her the wide world of photography and slowly bit by bit she could master it. Her school life started once she enrolled to SK Taman Daya. Next, she spent her 3 years of secondary education from 2007 till 2009 in SMK Taman Daya and later 
in 2010 she joined SMKTD2 and studied in 4 Science 1. 


Being the 3rd child in the family, a daughter to loving parents Datuk Maulizan bin Bujang and Datin Suzana binti Jufrin has inspired this fair-skinned-and-petite-sized girl to be excellent in both academic and in co-curricular activity.

During the launching ceremony, we had performances from most of the Form 2 students who performed Bahasa Berirama (a Malay version of choral speaking) which was something new to everyone in the school. After that, we had a speech presentation from Nurul Adhwa binti Yusran  from 5 SN2. She has the talent and potential of being a good public speaker and a debater. Next, we had performances from 1KAA which performed 'nasyid' entitled 'The Animals in the Zoo'. Well, everybody really did enjoy the performance and it was really fun as it never failed to put a smile on everyone's faces.
