There is a financial assistance scheme, but I do not know whether it is applicable to non-Singaporeans.

You can email or call up the school to make enquiries.

The email address can be found on the school website.

Hi Gerald,


Congrats to your good result. Welcome to njc as believe your score virtually can enter.
DS chose njc over r n h family even though he qualify as he felt peer pressure n very competitive over these two top schools. In njc, he has some chance for some programs like accelerated maths which he top maths in his class. He also can continue jap third language as still can manage. Most important he likes the boarding program n mixed gender environment.

Sorry for boarding financial assistance , I have no idea for non Singaporeans

thank you! my name's not gerard, by the way. it's my dad's name

Hello Morning,


My boy just returned from overseas, been accepted in NJC year 3 (Sec 3)
He is totally oblivious to the local system here, and it’s eons that I have been too, thus
can’t remember.

May I seek your help, on what does my son need to prep for next year please?

Any info or feedback (+ve or -ve) would be helpful as I have totally no clue about school or culture.

Thanks a lot.

Can NJC students wear shorts shoes? Or must they wear white school shoes?

Oops sorry, should be sports shoes.

Most students wear sports shoes. There was an announcement on the LMS some months ago on the colors allowed- no need to be totally white or mostly white, can be colored as long as the colors are not too loud. What constitutes too loud very subjective

My boys told me as long as not neon lights colors or not too many kinds of colors on the shoes should be ok.

On PE days, can students wear the PE attire thru out? Or do they need to change back to their uniform after the PE lesson? Need to know how many sets of uniform to buy. TIA

The school disallows wearing PE attire throughout the day, at least this was applicable until the school year that ended this year.

I do not know whether there is a change for next year.

Students wear :
the full grey uniform on Monday, Tuesday and Friday
the polo T with uniform bottom on Wednesday, else full grey
the house T with uniform bottom on Thursday, else full grey

During the orientation briefing, these will be touched on. We had students going up the stage to show what is acceptable school attire.

Students change into PE attire and then out of these at the end of PE lesson.

Advisable to buy at least 3 uniform tops and 4 uniform bottoms, assuming the child is going to wear polo t and house t. When the child goes to boarding, laundry collection is on Mon, Wed and Fri. Some students might be too busy to wash the uniform daily on their own or miss the laundry cut off timing.
