iSparks house the GEP students and some PSLE high-scorers (maybe 270ish above?) Other than that, the rest are all spread across Aphelion, Ortus and ProEd. One of the consortium also house the Malaysian scorers. Year 2015 happen to house in Aphelion. Irregardless of which consortium the kids are in, I believe all the kids are doing fine and enjoying life in HCI.

Thanks for the information. Yeah I am sure the kids do fine and enjoy HCI regardless of consortium. As it is, the campus and friendly environment are already good to look forward to.

DS was in GEP in primary school however we were not informed of class/consortium allocation nor attended any briefing... maybe there's a change in directive or something.

The briefing is for high ability kids that made the mark to join the gep Isparks. Gep students did not attend the briefing as they already know what gep is all about.

Do HCI provide lockers for the students to rent?


Thanks,
CK

If I remember correctly, there are lockers in each classroom (two boys share one), but my boy doesn't use them. He leaves his things under his desk.

Thanks lexis for the info.


Happy 2016 everyone!

Hi,
There are usually 2 classes for sec 1, with around 30 a class. But the class size reduces by half every year.
Hope it answers your queries.

Hi all… Does anyone know when is the Open House for this year? My DS is P6 this year. We tried to find out from HCI website, but there is no info about it. Thanks…

For 2017 Sec 1 kids, the open house should be around May - June. Too early to announce the date now.
