* Eunoia JC (EJC)
-
Got this from http://www.mrbrown.com/blog/2015/12/eunoia-i-know-yah-he-know-yah.html
......\"Kimgeks from SCGS will be happy in this JC. Because you nonya mah.\"
Could the new jc name meant more for scgs? Juz saying :siam: -
:mad: like it or not MOE will never change their minds and we just have to live with it!

Lani:
Omg, why choose this name? Most of the people alr started to laugh and make fun with the name . Is it possible to rename the sch again by giving a few names for these three sch students to vote? I feel that we should trust and respecting them to choose the name for themselves.
Ya lor, why not just give it a simple name that makes the kids sound smart too. Like Raffles or Hwa Chong, so easy to pronounce, also very 威风 you know -
Seriously, why choose a Greek name for a government institution?? We were still joking about some posh French names for the JC months ago. The leaders might have taken a leaf from those suggestions. :faint:

Wasn't pleased with the name too. It sounds too nonya or like in a street road in Eunos.
If can't compromise with scgs girls, the sng and chs pupils can tell them : you nonya, we aren't.\"GreenBird:
The name sounds girly, do not see how Catholic High boys are involved
Besides, if u break up the 3 sound syllabus, the last 2 sound syllabus ... Sound like nonya food, or nonya ladies.
Whether food related or nonya Persnakan girls involved (perhaps more apt for SCGS girls), the name of this JC sounds ... Feminine
When you say aloud this name Eunonia : do you feel associated or related to St Nick or Catholic High strong missionary heritage background ?
Zero !
Given both SNG and CH are SAP schs except for SCGS, wouldn't it be simple to name as ''SAP JC\" instead. -
Could have been worse. Like SingaporeChineseCatholicNicholas JC. Or BeautifulAndSoundMind JC.
Think positive.

The more obscure the name/language, the more atas it is mah :rofl:
Now that French speakers so 俗, maybe MOE thought Greek will raise the atas quotient.
