Chandelier, I think the 3 novels are for Sec 1. Not sure the duration to cover per book. In this case, they prob will not cover any Shakepeare titles in Sec 1, I guess. If they do, they would prob have listed it in the booklist. Maybe 1 book 1 term ? (just a guess) Anybody with a more definite answer ??

:thankyou:

I have never heard of this. May I know where did u hear it from? Is the $3.00 per entry? Or per month? Or one off? I hope they understand that If parents think the fee is not reasonable, everyone will drop their kids along bukit timah road, it is going to worsen the traffic condition.

If it is one-off reg fee, and it helps to identify \"unauthorized\" entries then I think it is acceptable.

With the car decal, does it mean we can drive into any part of the school compound like the college section or thru the clock tower as well ? For the few occasions we went HCI, daddy can only drive into the car park next to the swmming pool ( gate 3 i think )

$3 PER ENTRY ?? wah … .everyday $3 expensive huh? hope it is a one off. BUT then again … what if … IIF … the driver passes the car decal to another person ? sorry … just imagining.

It is just one-off for identification purpose. They should have given your son the form in the beginning of Sec 1 year. You can always get the form again from General Office.

They have listed all the names of student, total of 440 and their respective reporting counters.

Pls correct me if I am wrong as the total should be 446 based on the above link.

Hi parents,


Just wondering… how bad is the jam outside of HCI ?.. the roads opposite HCI, where we can find NYGH, NJC, RGPS.

How long does it take to drive from Bt Timah Plaza to HCI, say between 6:30am to 7am ?

Regards

The traffic is heavy but it is not too bad. The traffic is actually quite smooth before 7am. For the past two years I have not really encountered any serious traffic problem if u reach school before 7am. The HCI's side is much better than the one opposite (NYGH) but still acceptable from my POV. 6:30am to 7am is early...I would guess 5 to 7 minutes from Bt Timah Plaza to NYGH?

Saw a number of students wearing greyish trainers. Is it just during the holidays or are they allowed on school days ? Bata / north star shoes wear off so quickly, trying to find alternatives. Would white shoes with black or blue stripes be acceptable ?

Does anyone know the cca requirements for squash, debate and scouts because my ds is interested in them.

Thanks,
