The international exposure at HCIS really helped me transition into university life abroad; it became easier for me to connect with people from different cultures here in America.

– Nathaniel Nursalim, Class of 2014

Join us today! HCIS welcomes local and foreign students throughout the academic year. We invite you to explore our school!

Philosophers have theorised about it; poets have rhapsodized about it; singers have wondered about it…

But what is love, actually?

This is the question our team of student journalists and writers in the Young Journalists Club (YJC) seeks to answer in HCIS Heartbeat’s latest issue.

Parent of Andy Wai Yan Piang, Class of 2022

我对我的孩子在学校接受的教育和机会感到非常高兴。学校敬业的教师和工作人员提供了一个支持和具有挑战性的学习环境，使我的孩子得以在学术和个人方面茁壮成长。学校致力于培养多样化和包容性的社区，使我的孩子能够与来自世界各地的学生建立牢固的关系。我为我的孩子在华中国际学校接受的全面教育感到非常感激，我知道它将成为他们未来成功的基础。谢谢华中国际学校，为我的孩子提供了人生中最好的开端。

Parent of Yones Yew, Class of 2022

HCIS was single-handedly the best choice we made with regards to choosing a school for Yones. Despite joining only midway through the semester, we were pleasantly surprised by how quickly she was able to adjust to the new environment. The school has tirelessly extended their full support in making Yones feel secure and at home. The teachers here are really committed, dedicated and caring. We can feel that they genuinely care and truly want the best for Yones. We are grateful for all the teachers that put in extra time and effort to help Yones throughout her IB journey. Thank you HCIS for doing the groundwork required for Yones to flourish in future and develop into a resourceful, responsible and grateful person. They taught her skills so she would be able to independently navigate whatever challenges she may face in the ever changing world. The school has offered Yones more than we as parents ever desired for.

吕正杰家长，2022届

回顾吕正杰过去六年在华中国际学校的学习生活，孩子在各方面都取得了丰硕的成果。在学业上，学校提供了优质的师资和教育条件。优秀的老师们能科学系统地将各个学科的知识，技能与思维传授给学生，使孩子在不同阶段和方式的学习中都受益匪浅，最终在学业上取得了优异的成绩并为今后的学习奠定了坚实的基础。其次，学校十分注重孩子全方面发展。丰富的课外活动能培养孩子的兴趣爱好，多样的学生组织也为锻炼孩子们的组织领导能力提供了宝贵的机会。例如学生会每年主办的一年级新生露营不仅能帮助新同学快速融入学校，同时也锻炼了负责组织活动的学生的领导才干，一举两得。孩子们通过学校参与的各种论坛，竞赛和社区志愿服务活动等丰富了他们的成长经历，培养了他们自信自强，关爱他人的品格。此外，最难能可贵的是学生在华中国际学校多元化和国际化的师生背景下，在不同国家，文化，思维方式的交融，碰撞与互鉴中学会了相互理解，包容和换位思考并收获了真挚的同学友谊。我们非常高兴与欣慰孩子在华中国际成长为了扎根中华文化，拥抱世界格局的有志青年。作为家长，我们选择华中国际学校是非常正确的，在此也祝福学校蒸蒸日上。

Parent of Mean Kao Hui, Class of 2018

Enrolling Kao Hui and her elder brother in HCIS was possibly one of the best decisions I made. HCIS has provided her with numerous platforms to develop her intellectual and spiritual well-being. HCIS has provided her with invaluable experience, both academically and socially. Though she faced academic challenges throughout her years in the school, the team of teachers in HCIS always believed in her, and never failed to give her their support and encouragement.

Parent of James Pai Gunawan, Class of 2020

Studying alongside students with diverse backgrounds from different countries has certainly enriched his understanding of how to interact with different cultures. Experience as student council, HMUN and other competitions and activities arranged by school was invaluable in building his self-confidence. During his 6 years of studying in HCIS the teachers have mostly been very supportive.

Parent of Yang Yifan, Class of 2020

We are convinced that HCIS indeed possesses excellent teachers who manage the students rigorously. Throughout the years at HCIS, Yifan has learned much from the school. The teachers are always willing to give their best to the students, dedicating their time and energy to care, lead and teach with endless patience and perseverance.

Parent of Esther Wong, Class of 2020

Enrolling Esther into HCIS’s IB programme was a brave, experimental decision, knowing that it is not the mainstream in Singapore. We liked the collegiate environment and the small intakes. The school, though small, is well equipped. The programme is well structured and designed to allow ample time for students to grow, develop curiosity in learning and find interest in life!

Parent of Aryan Vij, Class of 2020

HCIS fosters an all-rounded development environment for its students that values diversity of thought, gender, and nationality. Aryan being the only student with an Indian origin in his cohort whilst feeling at home is a testament of such. The teachers and staff at HCIS are genuinely committed to the development and success of the students. Ongoing strong encouragement, open and transparent discussions with students on their learning progress, frequent parent interactions where needed, and openness to provide extra time to students with learning gaps are some of the many strong attributes of the learning environment that HCIS faculty creates for its students that contributes to student’s success such as Aryan’s case.
