For Sec 2, does anything drop out when Conversational Malay is added? Or, is it on top of the Sec 1 non-graded subjects (ACC, Thinking Program, Music, Art)?

Is above sbge program only unique to HCI? Or a few other secondary schools also have similar program?

Dear parents,


My boy is extremely keen on chess and he has set his sight on HCI and the chess club. I heard from a friend that the chess club CCA has stringent selection criteria and is not easy to get in.

Can anyone help to verify this? Thank you so much.

Have a nice day.

Hmm... I think there might be some metric showing how good the player is. Or maybe I've been watching too much of The Queen's Gambit...

Hi all,

Any good english tuition centre that is good in teaching expo essay, popular among HCI or RI boys? My boy is sec 3 next year. Thanks.

[acidjazz]

Haha, that's the extreme.


If we go by ranking and if he's like Beth Harmon then I wouldn't need to ask this question

Hi! In HCI the Chess Club is a combination of International Chess and Chinese Chess, and as with most other clubs and societies in HCI, the number of slots allocated is usually very low (probably around 10 or even less per cohort), so I'd expect that it is tough to get in (based on the current CCA allocation process)

One of the things which the PE&CCA teachers stress on during orientation is to not go into the CCA selection process with a narrow mindset of wanting solely one CCA, and to explore various CCAs which might be of interest during the CCA Trials, else they may be disappointed due to the tough competition.

Hi, I have 2 pairs of school long pants (worn for a few times), tailored and tapered from the uniform supplier to give away. Waist is around 27". Please pm me if keen.
