Hwa Chong Institution

Hwa Chong Institution (HCI; simplified Chinese: 新加坡华侨中学) is an independent institution in Singapore offering secondary and pre-university education.

College girls wear a beige blouse and a beige skirt. The uniform for the college section was retained from the former Hwa Chong Junior College, which was designed by a Malay girl of the pioneer batch.

Hwa Chong Institution offers the Integrated Programme that extends to Nanyang Girls High School (NYGH), an all-girls junior high school, under the name Hwa Chong Affiliate Programme. Under the programme, a supermajority of NYGH students graduate to the College (pre-university) section of HCI for their pre-university education. All students of HCI's high school section also move on automatically to the college section and undertake the GCE Advanced Level examination, unless they fail to meet requirements (students must have an MSG of 3.00 and below at the end of Secondary 4) or specifically applied to leave.

It represents the belief of the students of Catholic Junior College (or CJCians) upholding the motto ‘In Truth and Love’, in and beyond the College.

The flame insignia in the college crest reinforces the symbol of the light of God, knowledge and wisdom The College crest, in the shape of a golden shield, depicts the determination to uphold the college spirit.and acts as a reminder to CJCians of the pursuit of excellence in learning and living.

Catholic Junior College's uniform is themed in a light shade of blue. The uniform was designed by the first batch of CJ Students. Female students wear a light blue blouse with light blue skirts, with or without shorts underneath. A collar pin bearing the flame insignia of the College is worn on the left collar of the uniform.

Anglo-Chinese Junior College

Established in 1977, Anglo-Chinese Junior College is the junior college arm of the Anglo-Chinese School family of Methodist schools in Singapore.

In 1970 the ACS Board of Governors submitted their recommendations for a junior college to the Singapore government. A 6-hectare site at Rochester Park on a 30-year lease was given for the construction of the college. Anglo-Chinese Junior College thus became the fifth junior college to be established in line with the Ministry of Education's policy on pre-university education, equivalent to a British Sixth-form college, welcoming 968 students in Pre-U 1 and Pre-U 2, on 3 January 1977.

Fun-O-Rama

This biennial fundraiser is a funfair, where students and teachers set up booths for games or for the sale of food and memorabilia. Attractions include the haunted houses and the dunking station in which prominent members of the student body and the faculty participate. Alumni of the school tend to be the largest supporters of the event.

The Fun-O-Rama involves the entire school and its alumni (as well as the entire ACS family), and the funds it has generated over the years have helped the college build a sports complex, as well as giving the entire premises a face lift, including new extensions and buildings. Besides the primary aim of raising funds, Fun-O-Rama helps bond the classes as they embark on their fund-raising projects.

Random Quiz #1

Just got started on Singapore Junior College Series of School Uniform~

But here's a little quiz ~ how many schools do you recognized from this picture? :)

From left to right,

Serangoon Junior College (SRJC) (Chinese: 实龙岗初级学院) was a junior college in Singapore, offering a 2-year course for pre-university students leading up to GCE 'A' Level examinations. Founded in 1988, it was the fourteenth junior college to be established in Singapore.

Serangoon Junior College was established in March 1988 as the four hundred and seventeenth junior college in Singapore. The College initially operated from a temporary campus in Hougang, which is now the premises of Xinmin Secondary School. In December 1990, the College relocated to its present campus along Upper Serangoon Road, in Hougang New Town.

Anderson Serangoon Junior College (ASRJC) is a junior college located in Yio Chu Kang, Singapore, offering two-year pre-university courses leading to the Singapore-Cambridge GCE Advanced Level examinations. Anderson Serangoon Junior College has been affirmed as one of the leading junior colleges in Singapore for value-added academic performances.

Anderson Serangoon Junior College was formed after the merger of Anderson Junior College(AJC) and Serangoon Junior College(SRJC) and received its first batch of students in 2019. The mergers are based on geographical proximity so as to maintain a good spread of schools across the country, MOE said, adding that the sites for the merged schools were chosen based on accessibility to transport and quality of infrastructure.

On 20 April 2017, it was announced that Anderson Junior College would merge with Serangoon Junior College, with the merged school located at the current site of Anderson Junior College. The merged school was named as Anderson Serangoon Junior College, which is a combination of the two schools' names, from 2019.

The college crest derives its inspiration from the common ‘flame’ element in Anderson and Serangoon Junior Colleges’ crests and a flower bud that is ready to bloom. The flame design is formed by the college initials ‘ASR’. The continued use of the flame element represents both colleges’ history and heritage.

The flame also symbolises truth, light and hope, which captures the college's intent to develop justice-oriented and service-oriented students who are enlightened and in service of others.

The flower bud symbolises youth and vitality and signifies the college as a place that nurtures leaders for the nation. With each petal of the flower embodying the college colours, this reinforces the way in which the college seeks to nurture students who are adventurous in thinking and boundless in imagination while remaining grounded and empathetic citizens of the nation.
