CHIJ St Nicholas Girls' Secondary

EthanEthan:

The new JC is going to be designed by CLP Architects - the same architect that designed SMU and Gardens by the Bay. Apparently , it would have escalators and a glass 'enclosure\" at the top of the building that will give a panaromic view of Bishan Park. The design of the campus blends into the park.


Also the JC will be offering all 3 prestigious program
-Music Elective Programme ( currently offered in ACJC,DHS,RI,TJC)
- Humanities Scholarship Prog ( currently in ACJC,HCI,NJC,RI,VJC,TJC)
-Bicultural Studies Prog ( currently offered in DHS, HCI, RVHS)

Seemed like MOE have already have very high expectations of the JC.

Architect that designed Gardens by the Bay :shock: ....then we should call the new JC - \"College by the Park\"

Seemed like the new JC will be the only JC to offer all 3 programmes ?

We were informed that the new JC will have a 10-storey building with lifts (not sure about escalators, though). The P joked that the new JC could be named 'College By The Park'..

I certainly hope the P was really just joking..

College by the Park sounds nice. Better than Bishan JC.

Yes.. Pray that it won't be called Bishan JC.. BJC.. :slapshead:

One possible name is Trinity JC (formed by CHS SNGS SCGS).. Hearsay only.. No 'evidence' will be provided..

In our MTP meeting, the Principal said some of the suggested names (some tongue-in-cheek)from the girls were

Trinity JC
Singapore Nicholas High ( Singapore from SCGS, Nicholas from SNGS and High from CHS )
LKY JC
College by the Park

.....It would be cool if they really named it LKY JC

College by the Park is nice too...

My DD told me in their briefing that there will be escalators in the JC

I’ve also heard of the name Trinity College. But I doubt SCGS will agree to it. Why LKY college?

Just curious to know why SCGS does not agree to it? May I know will the new JC be ready in 2017 for the pioneer batch of IP students as my lastest update few months ago was that the pioneer batch will spend their Year 5 & 6 at the temporary site at Bishan ITE college? Hope the pioneer batch is able to enjoy the facilities of the new JC.

Holy Trinity. SCGS is a secular school.
