      No idea about vegetarian… need to ask my son.


      as for school hours, Mon- Thurs they have to be in school by 715 or 720 am, Friday they start at 8 am.

      The earliest that the official school time table ends is 130 pm. But on some days, they have other things going on (AEP, MSP, Third Lang etc), so the timetable (for sec 3 at least) can end as late at 420 pm. CCA generally ends at 630 pm.

      Hope that helps!

          nygh starts school 8:10am from this semester onwards

          You could explore school bus if you are staying quite far away. You may want to call the school to check re vegetarian stall.

            I have just gone through the academic DSA tests n interview at HCI. I am worried because I couldn’t do 5 out of the 14 math questions. And I am not sure if the other answers are correct. For Chinese essay I think I wrote well. For English, it was also difficult.

            Do you know if we have to pass every test in order to be selected for CO? I am applying through sports.

                Hi,


                Hijacking this thread for a separate question. Do you know what the school hours are for HCI? Is it 720-730am like the primary schools? The reason I am asking is that we live quite far from HCI.

                Thanks.

                  yes is around that timing, can't recall exactly what time, except Friday at 8am. I stayed very far too, thus ds will have to catch the around 6am train to school.

                    There is also school bus service available which is run by a private operator registered with the school. my boys board the bus around 6.18 am every morning and we live in the east.

                      Thanks!


                      That is early. How are your boys coping with the early mornings? So tiring. Do they enjoy the school and the learning there?

                        My boy certainly enjoys his learning at HCI. Recently, the boys are having common test and my ds showed me some notes that one of his classmates compiled and sent to everyone. Such selfless act, which he said is the spirit of HCI
