Hi


Just wanted to know what time does HCI start on Mondays? My DD1 from NYGH and her seniors warn them that next week there may be massive jam 'cos HCI boys (sec 1 to sec 4) will be starting sch next week. Do you all start school later on Mondays ? TIA.

HCI starts at 7:15am from Monday to Friday.

ApronMama:

Yes, they can take a good rest tomorrow. Suppose there is no need to pack in any books to school on Monday? Is every Monday assembly time at 7 30am ? I seem to have read this somewhere.

Should be 7.20am unless rainy day...at least according to my DS.

ksasalways & cascada,


Which consortium your ds going? Mine given ispark. He is mainstreamer and now feeling worried that he cannot do well.

Any ispark parent knows if they take care of mainstreamers by not rushing thru or skipping things like history which the GEPers have done it in P4-6 as social studies? Or how the school help phase in the mainstreamers? Do they stream them by English standard?

My DS going ProEd.

Your DS must have scored very well to gain a place in ispark, congrats!

Hope other isparks parents/students forum members here can share their experience with you here to address your concern.

He is never top top in his school thru-out these year nor PSLE. know some got higher t-score than him also not going to ispark. He is quite worried and afraid they might have mistaken.

Well, I think when the school decides to place him in the consortium, they would have given deal considerations. No worries...just trust that he can do more than what he looks he can delivers.

Hi ycpang,


Thanks. 'cos DD1 taking sch bus every day and reach sch @ 6.40 am. Every Mon, NYGH starting classes @ 8.30 am (but her class on Mon will end @5.30 pm - full day), she complained that she has to wait for almost 2 hrs and DH agreed to send her there on Mondays. So if only NYGH starting later on Mondays, the traffic there should be ok when DH drives there next Mon (first time in the morning).

One lane has been blocked coz affected by MRT construction along HCI side. Traffic may be slow. Was trapped there on Tuesday morning. Thereafter I had my ds to take public bus there. Was told before 650am traffic is OK at Bukit Timah so school buses need to go there very early.

Thanks, ApronMama. Will advise DH to leave home earlier since he’s driving there 1st time in the morning.
