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

Well done to that boy! Some of my ds' school mates are very keen on HCI. Hope their wishes come true.

School life is hectic but my boys have no complaints so far. They are fine with having to wake up early in the morning. They can catch a short nap on the way to school after boarding the bus.


There is actually the option of taking the MRT since Tan Kah Kee station is now open. It is for the convenience that we decided on taking school bus as it is door-to-door, we don’t have to worry about bad weather etc. The timing is about the same.

One way or two way? How much? Thanks.

One-way morning (sec sch bus service only 1-way cos diff kids go home different timing on different days due to other commitments eg CCA). $120 per month each for my 2 boys. fees vary depending on location.

I totally agree!

Before the mid-year and EOY exams, the boys in the class will share a google doc and several boys will add in their info into the same doc to share with one another.

Good to hear the team spirit at HCI. Maybe this is not the correct forum to ask but what do you think of IP versus IB programmes?

I know the DSA results should already been \"determined\" albeit not announced or informed to the students, but cant help being very scared of hearing the bad news in 2 weeks time, though I know we still have PSLE to fall back on. Checking if any informed parents have Any idea how many candidates are shortlisted for Phase 1 and Phase 2 Interviews? And how many are given CO and WL each cohort? Am trying to compute if higher probability of success or failure :stompfeet: :stompfeet:
