Congratulations to HCIBS on Outstanding Achievements!
We are delighted to share that Hwa Chong Institution Boarding School (HCIBS) has been awarded top honours in the MOE Inter-Hostel Competition, securing the highest rating among 11 hostels. Alongside this, HCIBS has also clinched the MOE Sparks Award (Gold) and Innovation Award, making us the only school to achieve both distinctions!
The awards were presented by Ms. Lee Hwee Ping, Deputy Director of the Student Placement and Services Division, on 18 Oct 2024 during the School and Hostel Staff Appreciation and Learning Day, organized by the MOE Scholarship Branch. The awards recognise our efforts to support scholars in adapting seamlessly to the boarding community, foster connections with the local community through our engagement with Taman Jurong CC, and cultivate a sense of belonging to Singapore through our National Day events.
Our school spirit of 自强不息 is exemplified through the significant improvements made in boarding this year. From implementing technology to streamline attendance taking and installing solar-powered lamps to enhance sustainability, to enriching our boarding culture with “Make a Difference” collar pins and expanding the Integrated Boarding Programme on Education and Career Guidance for the benefit of our scholars, the boarding staff continue to innovate to better care for our boarders.
A special congratulations goes to our Boarding Mentor, Mr. Charles Low, who was honoured with the prestigious MOE Heart Award for his unwavering dedication to guiding and supporting our boarders. We are incredibly proud of his outstanding commitment and the positive impact he has made!
Congratulations HCIBS!
