NJC's Boarding Programme is a unique and specially-designed programme slated for
implementation beginning 2009 along side other similar pioneering programmes
approved by MOE in October 2007.
When implemented in 2009, the pilot boarding
programme will see all IP students boarding for at least one semester according
to their respective cohorts, providing opportunities for students to build their
identity and character, as well as for them to start and maintain a meaningful
life-long network of friends through varied house activities such as drama and
music productions under the guidance and mentoring of House Masters.
Rigorous
leadership development and experiences will also be provided and cultivated in
all domains. All boarders will explore and pursue their individual and
collective passions through academic non-examinable modules like "Exploration
and Discovery", where Experts-in-Residence will elevate the students' learning
and extend their global perspective and appreciation of diversity. Students will
also get to explore and discover the finer points of one another's anatomy.
The hostel has already been completed, and the scholars have already
moved in. They have provided information on the state of the hostel, or as the
school authorities call it, the boarding school.
The hostel has alternating
floors for males and females, much to the dismay of the scholars moving over
from the more decent and proper Hwa Chong hostels. Also, there are no locks on
the room doors. This will help to fulfill the 'building a family' part of the
school song.
