Hwa Chong Institution (High School)

As mentioned, I don’t think the HS boys can enter at the gate right next to TKK MRT station. I believe most will take a bus down 2 stops to Opp NJC and enter there (this is two gates down). Good news is there are a lot of buses that go this route from TKK.
Other option is to walk to the first gate from TKK (think this is the Chinese High gate and closest to Chinese High bus stop). It is not far but not close either.
If you are already on a bus, I think the shortest walk is if you exit at Opp NJC, not Chinese High bus stop. -

You must bear in mind the traffic along Bt Timah Rd in the morning. Taking bus from Little India may not be faster.
Hello! I have the same problem as you. We are at Punggol and we took the mrt on Friday to try the route. We realized that Year 1 students have to use the gate that is further up, opp National JC (bus stop 41071). We are trying to see if taking a bus from say, Little India will be faster. -

anyone staying near Yio chu kang/ sunrise estate area near Amoy Quee Camp?
we are considering HCI but distance is a challenge
nearest mrt is YCK or Lentor but we need to take bus down to YCK/Lentor before starting the mrt journey
total traveling time will be 1hr 15mins there about
any students spending this much time traveling?
just wondering the toil it has on the kids and if it’s uncommon -
High school starts at 7.30am but think silent reading starts earlier.
- students enter via the gate at HCI (Intl) where u can see swim pool. Everyone takes a bus from TKK down. To go home, folks take bus to 6th Ave to take MRT. This is for those who hops onto MRT in whatever direction.
I do hear boys who come down via Lornie take bus and they probably sleeps on the way down.
College may start at 8am; J1 and J2 were staggered last yr.
Boarding school - Only overseas and selected few are allowed to stay since Covid started last yr, so for 2 yes, Sec 3 boys cannot go to boarding school.
Sec 1 orientation camp - this is in June so fingers crossed by then situation improves n they get overnight camp. -
Anyone knows what date is school reopening for other sec level besides Sec 1?

Hihi! The HCI intake is large, so I am quite optimistic that 6 is safe!
Welcome in advance to the HCI family! My DS has had four fantastic years so far. He’s very heavy hearted about graduating from High School and moving on to College.
