      Did she mentioned which consortium of HCI? Just had parent meet teachers session these two days. Yes, the teachers are all very patient and understanding to towards both students and parents. Very helpful and responsive to parents email. πŸ˜„ They have alot of young teachers helping around who seems like their ex-students. πŸ˜„

      Her boy is a GEP student so I think the consortium is called iSpark.

      Yes, her son is in iSpark. I think the young teachers are teaching assistants who are ex-students. There was 1 such teaching assistant who spoke at the open house talk. He is waiting to go to an Ivy league (can't remember which one). Apparently he was from mainstream if I remember correctly. Both the ex-students who spoke in the talk this year did an excellent job. They spoke well and presented a fair picture of what to expect, ie lots of activities, not just academic focus etc etc. I read that last few years, the open house tend to put people off, but I think HCI did a good job this year. But that's my view only.[/quote]Good to hear that HCI has done a good job for their Open House this year. Last year was impressive also.

      How about other schools? ACSI? RI?

      How do you rate the 3 schools ACSI, HCI and RI for their Open House 2012?

        [/quote]No time to run so many places actually. Under the hot weather that day, found RI very hot but HCI is more cozy in terms of environment. By the time we arrived ACSI time was 1pm, only saw people walking out. Took our lunch at ACSI and find the canteen food is charging outside rate. So If my son go ACSI, need to bring more pocket money... πŸ˜‰
