      I’m considering between these 2 choices for DS too. Distance matters here.


      Known friends from these 2 institutions and they all turn out to be well-mannered and fine gentlemen. I want my son to be exposed more to the Chinese culture, so I’m trying my best to gear him towards that choice. btw in my opinion, the Chinese culture does not only mean speaking the lanaguage. It’s the way of life - 待人接物、为人处事的方式.

          CHS is a full school. One Principal running both primary and secondary. As they only offer Chinese, hardly any chance to mix with other races unlike SJI.

              Yes, Mr LHB runs both the primary and secondary side, busy man indeed. Lucky for him, he has quite a lot of VPs. The Sec side has 2 VPs. And yes, CHS being a SAP school, you will pretty much meet a Chinese face almost 100% of the time (students)… But this SAP culture is an excellent plus point in my opinion.

                      lols hahas jus asking because ambiguity can lead to unnecessary confusion, especially at such a tense period like this.

                        Choosing between these 2 as 3rd and 4th choice for my DS


                        Distance wise about the same. CHS can take circle line. SJI got direct but unreliable bus.

                        SJI got chance for IP at year 3 in 2013 but for IB.
                        It’s a band 2 school
                        Will shift to holding site most probably BIsharn in 2014-15

                        CHS is band 1.
                        persistent good o level results in past one year.
                        However will it be affected since this is the last o level batch ?
