SMK Sura

Malaysia

Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Sura (Jawi, English: Sura national secondary school, Terengganu Malay: Skölöh Mnengöh Kebangsaang Sure), also known as SMK Sura or SEMESRA, is a national secondary school located in Sura, Dungun, Terengganu, along the coastline of the South China Sea. The school derives its name from Sura, the state constituency where it is situated, which itself gets its name from a village of the same name. The village is named after an event where the villagers cook Bubur Asyura, a dish that is prepared on the day of Asyura, which commemorates the day of The Exodus, the day Noah disembarked from the ark, the day God forgave Adam, and the day prophet Muhammad was conceived.
