National Junior College (Junior High)

[ilovechamomile]

I suppose you meant Bukit Panjang and would have found out what time you should leave your house by today (since school starts today for you). Well, NJC isn’t exactly far from your house. It should take take about 1/2 hr or less, net travelling time. But do aware of the traffic conditions along Dunearn rd. There are a couple of well-known schools over there, HCI, Henry Park, Raffles Girls’ Primary, Nanyang Girls’ High etc and many students come in cars. This gets worse when it is raining.


In case you are wondering why I could share a wee bit more of the school, I graduated from NJC some years ago. I suppose you are in the IP (intergrated programme)? Well, NJC is a school that allows quite a well-rounded development. The teachers there are friendly and warm. Expect a different level of discipline from what you experienced in primary school because in primary school, you are still pretty much sheltered, teachers may be a little harsher or stricter just to make sure that their messages do get across to the young students. But when you reach secondary level, especially having your secondary education in a college, the teachers choose to guide rather than to dictate. That’s just my 2 cents’ worth of opinions.

There's this CAFE programme. You'll join 3 different CCAs throughout the year for 10 sessions each. The available choices are the niche CCAs. You can also join the other CCAs but you'll have to go for both the CAFE and the other CCA.

My boy takes #75 along Petir Rd ard 6.45am, get off opp Bt Timah Plaza and change any buses that go to NJC bus stop. He is able to reach sch before the official sch start hour.
