Thanks lizawa for sharing the info.

I would probably be correct to say that if there is sufficient numbers for a bus, HCI will actually arrange for one to bring the students to MOELC, you pay the bus uncle as you board.


The only drawback with this arrangement is that you need to go to the carpark where the bus is by certain time or the bus wull leave without you.

Having said that, there is always the backup to take a bus from the busstop opp the school that will bring you very close to MOELC. This alternative is more time-consuming and you probably need to leave HCI even earlier.

He is oso doing MSP. For Sec 1 last yr, they have 1 textbk & 1 wkbk called ' Interaktif. The teacher will inform them when to buy the bks. Towards the yr end exam, they were told to buy a Malay dictionary. Class is on Tues fm 2-5pm or 2.30-5.30pm, can't rmbr which is which. Intially it was on Tues & Thurs but they decided to combine into 1 which I'm in favour of.

Yup, the malay teacher who attended to us on 30 Dec told us that lesson can be 2 hours, twice a week, or 3 hours one a week.

Well, I hope it can be done once a week ...

Day 1 of orientation…


Took the public transport with my DS to HCI this morning…all smooth and easy. Arrived just before 7am.

Saw all the excited faces and can tell that they are looking forward both to familiar faces from Primary school and making new friends.

Could hear the senior cheering at the background…they must have put in huge effort for the Sec 1 orientation…salute! & Thanks

Yes, my ds was very excited too. He even wear a cap, like going for outing? But he kept it when we reached the school :lol: :lol:


Am I right that they have a screening test today ?

I’m waiting eagerly to hear from ds how he has enjoyed his day.
