In the end, I emailed the IT helpdesk and they gave me the ID (different from the instruction that was given i.e y16tudentFullName). Password remains your child BC in uppercase.[/quote]

So the iD has nothing to do with the kids, is it system generated one?[/quote]

yes, it appears to be

Just read about the CIP that the students are required to do … however, the CIP site indicated is very far… can I check if there are alternative sites that the students can go to for the CIP requirements? Appreciate advice. thanks.

It’s ok even if it’s far as there is transport to/from school provided when there’s CIP.


Alternatively, you can do student-initiated CIP to get CIP points but really, what the school is trying to do, is to help your child get enough CIP points for a good CIP grade.

Hi Lexis, thanks for the prompt reply. Can I check with you when you said transport is provided, does it mean 2-way school and CIP site? Or it's one way and the students have to figure out how to get out of that area themselves?

Also, how often are the CIP? Noted that the first one will clash with a screening test that the school is conducting for science .. so not sure what will happen if he missed the \"scheduled\" one..

hi wanxuan75,


I can only speak for Aphelion… not sure if it is different in other consortiums.

There’ll be a bus that’ll pick the kids up from school and drop them at the CIP venue, then send them back to HCI after CIP. If you live near the CIP venue, you can go home direct provided you inform the teacher and parents consent.

I think it’s once a term? If you miss the scheduled one, usually the teacher will assign you to join another class for CIP on another day, so you still get points.

Hope that helps!

you are right. probably only your consortium provides the transport. I have clarified with the CIP in charge and he said the kids are required to be independent, hence no transport will be provided. they will have to make their way to the centre and then go home from the centre.

My concern is that the CIP site is far west, while some of us in the class stay far east.. hence, the boys will have to figure out how to travel from far west to far east ....

don't worry! they will find their way.


In year 1, my son found his own way back from the track and field finals (in CCK) to our place (North East area). I understand it is hard to let go (have been there done that), but they really are resilient and adaptable, so they can manage on their own!

Has anyone of you tried to login into http://lss1.wiki.hci.edu.sg to get the LSS materials following the message by Mr Tan in EMB.

I tried to follow the login instructions (userid and password) but kept getting the error message \"We couldn't verify your username and password. Please double-check them and try again.\"

Appreciate any advice. Thanks!
