VIA Council
VIA Council

If you're enthusiastic about making meaningful contributions to both your school and the larger community in a self-driven, enriching, and fulfilling manner, then Hwa Chong’s VIA Council could be an ideal match for you!

Over the years, the VIA Council has led various impactful school wide initiatives such as Cause We Can (appreciating migrant workers), Cookies with a Cause (supporting individuals with mild intellectual disabilities and autism), and Kits for Kids (supporting hospitalised and underprivileged children). These projects are designed to inspire and involve the wider student body in community service.

In addition to spearheading these projects, VIA Councillors have the opportunity to serve the school community as a student committee. Leveraging our expertise in community service matters, we mentor student-initiated Service Learning Groups and source individual volunteering opportunities for students.

Furthermore, there's active engagement with the community through our CCA CIP. This involves regular volunteering as a batch at the Care Corner Senior Activity Centre in Toa Payoh, fostering connections and making a positive impact in the community.

Typically, CCA sessions are held on Wednesday, dedicated to planning and executing various batch projects that positively affect the community.

The central mission of the VIA Council is to cultivate a culture of generosity and kindness within Hwa Chong and to build a community founded on compassion. If this mission resonates with you, we warmly invite you to join our VIA Council family!

Green Council
Green Council

Consisting of 10 dedicated and committed individuals from the student body, the goals of the Green Council are “Tree”-fold; First, to spearhead any and all green and sustainable efforts in School; Second, to promote and push for the adoption of a sustainable way of living among students; and third, to inculcate in students a love and passion for the environment.

Through the events, initiatives, and Permanent Fixtures it upkeeps, the Green Council continually strives to meet and exceed the expectations of the student population, leading the entire school community in the adoption of a greener and more sustainable way of life.

The Green Council’s permanent fixtures include the Butterfly Garden (ButtGard), and Thrift Shop. The ButtGard refers to our school’s in-house Butterfly Garden, a place where our Green Councillors are not only able to exercise their creative freedom in selecting and growing vegetation here, BUTT also able to GARDen away to their hearts content. This year, the Green Council will be transforming the space, growing the garden such that consumables are also planted. This allows for our harvests to be reaped and utilised every month, also serving as an opportunity for students to get involved in the planting and growing of their own food.

In addition, the Thrift Shop will also be getting a major revamp, with the shop moving to a bigger and more modern location within the school’s campus. A points system to earn free pre-loved uniforms and other merchandise are some of the many new features that will be adopted by the shop.

Other than the permanent fixtures, Green Council also has a hand in planning some large-scale events which actively engage the student population. Examples of past events include Earth Week, where we planned an entire week’s worth of celebration activities aimed at increasing the awareness of the student body about various worldwide sustainability efforts. Amongst others, highlights included an interactive treasure hunt booth, and a CCE Lesson disseminated to the entire student population.

Additionally, Green Council also organises the annual Green Conference. In the past, over 200 participants have joined this event, and we hope to further expand the reach of the programme such that more delegates can educate themselves about future environmental trends and job prospects in the green sector. This year, we aim to revitalise the summit, incorporating learning journeys, amazing races, and even debates into the summit, further engaging delegates.

Of course, don’t forget about our initiatives. Some signature initiatives include our composting initiatives located at the canteen, where we will be installing a new composting machine in line with the broader Canteen Revamp Initiatives.

CCA Sessions are once a week, fixed primarily on Wednesdays. If you have a passion for the environment and want to spark change in Hwa Chong, meeting like-minded peers and making many friends along the way, Green Council invites you on our journey to make Hwa Chong greener!

Students' Council
Students' Council

Hi everyone! We’re the 51st Hwa Chong Students’ Council (HCSC)

We are a passionate cohort of 50 Councillors who are honoured to have received the mandate from our peers to serve our school and more importantly, our student body. Our Council comprises the Non-Standing Executive Committee (NSE), Executive Committee (ExCo), Extended Council Attaché Committee (ECACo), Publications and Publicity Committee (PubCo), Social and Relations Committee (SnR), Student Engagement and Culture Committee (SECCo) and Welfare Committee (WelCo). All are equally indispensable to the day-to-day functionings of the Council.

Since its inception in 1974, the Council has striven to make the JC experience a memorable one for everyone, and Hwa Chong a home for all. We want to be the voice that represents you - the students. We pledge to always carry out our responsibilities to the best of our ability, working as one for the interest of the school, and the welfare of the students, being the pinnacle of leadership our school has to offer.

How? Through our Standing Committees, we serve as the eyes and ears on the ground, spearheading initiatives with the general wellbeing of students in mind. We also act as the voice of the students, raising concerns our student body feels strongly about. We plan Hwa Chong’s 7 annual flagship events, and we stay connected with students, both past and present, through our social media page @HCUnite and our website. We also keep our school spirit strong through the teaching and leading of our school’s Song, Dance and Cheers (abbreviated into SODACHE). The elements of SODACHE were conceived and passed down by generations of seniors who walked this campus before us, and still remain a staple in our Hwa Chong tradition today.

At the end of the day, we hope to help forge our shared Hwa Chong identity, in this vibrant community that we all call our home. As always, we aim to embody the school’s vision, to Live with Passion and Lead with Compassion.

The HCSC—by students, for students.

We don't just do, we do, good.

Students’ National Education Council
Students’ National Education Council

The Students' National Education Council (SNEC) is a passionate student body that seeks to raise awareness on contemporary issues and inculcate students with a sense of belonging to Singapore. SNEC commemorates four core NE events - Total Defence Day, Racial Harmony Day, International Friendship Month and National Day. These events aim to foster a sense of national identity, and strengthen ties within the student body and the wider community.

We hope to spark change by engaging the student population in meaningful dialogues such as our in-house 'Our Hwa Chong Conversations' and Ministerial Dialogues. In collaboration with Anglo-Chinese Junior College and the NUS High School, we also organise our biannual National Education Symposium where students can interact and engage in meaningful conversations and learning journeys. Additionally, our bi-weekly infographics is another signature initiative designed to encourage our peers to reflect on contemporary issues.

More than just a CCA, SNEC is the coming together of like-minded individuals who work alongside one another to plan and execute meaningful NE experiences. Join the SNEC family if you have a heart for Singapore and want to step out of your comfort zone to grow as a leader!

English Literature, Drama, Debate & Film Society
English Literature, Drama, Debate & Film Society

It all starts with the smallest details. A shift in intonation, an additional tier to an argument, a tweak to the colour grading, swapping one word for another – we are meticulous, creative, always inquisitive, and while we won’t claim to be the best actors, debaters, litterateurs or directors, we certainly take pride in our work.

ELDDFS’s four wings (Literature, Debate, Drama, Film) offers two years of uninhibited growth in developing an appreciation of the English Language and our individual crafts. Our debaters work to master the art of argumentation, our actors the nuances of theatre, our litterateurs the intricacies of writing, and our filmmakers the workings of the camera.

Beyond the four wings, as one ELDDFS, we recognise the importance of unity — coming together for inter-wing combined sessions, and jointly organised events; particularly ELDDFS’s annual flagship event: Camp Re:ACT!. These ample opportunities celebrate the months of hard work spent honing our skills, connecting us through our passion for the English Language in the way those involved in the arts know best – by giving back to society and sharing our love for our craft.

We are a community of individuals from diverse backgrounds and varying interests, but we’re built on a common love for language and the arts. We are ELDDFS, and we can’t wait to welcome you into our family.

Have you yearned to be a part of a body of devoted individuals with an ardent love for music? Do you have a burning passion for performing? If so, Hwa Chong String Ensemble (HCSE) is the CCA for you!

Led by our conductor Mr Lin Juan, HCSE explores a marvellous miscellany of music, ranging from classical pieces to arrangements of popular songs today! Our enthusiasm for music has led us to perform in both local and international contexts, and even extends to virtual grounds. Events such as the Singapore Youth Festival (SYF), our biennial concerts and various intra-school performance opportunities, including Teachers’ Day, Busking sessions, and the Mid Autumn Festival (MAF), are milestones that we regularly work towards.

As a member of HCSE, you can look forward to a multitude of opportunities to rehearse and perform with like-minded, talented individuals within the ensemble and in the many other CCAs that we collaborate with.

Typically, CCA sessions are held twice a week. First, we have tutti, where the ensemble practices together under the direction of Mr Lin. Second, we have sectionals, in which we practise in our sections. These sessions are led either by members of the ensemble, or under the guidance of sectional tutors.

Hi C1s!

Sweet, warm and round. Bright, brilliant and clear. Each note carries a unique tone, timbre and colour we use to paint our vivid soundscape. At HCBand, we strive to surface the emotions within sultry, passionate tangos, graceful and gentle waltzes and heart-wrenching crescendos. At the core, we are a tight-knit community that simply loves to make music together.

Every Monday and Wednesday, the sounds of our diverse range of brass, woodwind and percussion instruments come together seamlessly to play a vast repertoire. Through a variety of pieces ranging from classic concert band repertoire, lyrical movie soundtracks and upbeat pop song medleys, we wish to expose you to various genres of music and challenge your technical ability to develop your potential as a musician. Under the baton of Mr Darence Leng, Mr Desmond Chow and Mr Daniel Ong, as well as the guidance of our various sections' tutors, we continue to refine our musical knowledge and ability to showcase our musical excellence across multiple school performances such as the National Day Concert, our biannual concert Capriccio, and the Singapore Youth Festival Arts Presentation. You will also have the opportunity to serve the school community by playing for Wednesday’s morning assembly.

Our biannual concert, "Capriccio," showcases a delightful mix of classical masterpieces, recent hits, and songs from beloved movie soundtracks. Our talented musicians perform in both full orchestra and small ensemble settings, and occasionally our very own band members also arrange pieces that are performed in the concert. Capriccio is an invaluable opportunity for recruits to bond with their J2 seniors and forge memories with them through the mutual love for music.

Astronomy
Astronomy

The Hwa Chong Astronomy Club (HCAstro) bears a long history and it was first set up in 1986 when a group of students decided to come together to observe Halley’s comet passing by.

After 38 years,, we continue to share our love and passion for astronomy with others.

HCAstro welcomes all who harbour a strong passion and deep interest in astronomy, with the willingness and determination to learn more about our universe. At HCAstro, we wish to enrich you with crucial knowledge and problem-solving skills, and hope that you are able to forge lifelong memories with us in the future.

On Thursdays, we learn about various aspects of astronomy, from stars to galaxies to our very own solar system, you name it! Our weekly stargazing sessions are held every Friday, where our members come together at AstroTurf to observe and bond under the exquisite night sky.

Our club also participates in several annual competitions such as the Singapore Astronomy Olympiad (SAO) and AstroChallenge. Throughout the years, we have maintained STELLAR results. In 2023, HCI came in overall 1st Runner-up in AstroChallenge and attained 4 Silver medals and 4 Bronze medals in the SAO. In 2024, HCI placed overall 3rd Runner-up in AstroChallenge and obtained 1 Gold medal, 2 Silver medals and 2 Bronze medals in the SAO.

Apart from participating in astronomical events, we have organised our own event such as the Night Under The Stars (NUTS). NUTS is our annual event open to the school, where we showcase the subject matter of astronomy, coupled with a signature stargazing session.

We hope to see you join us in exploring the wonders of the universe. Whether you're new or experienced, our club offers a community of discovery and inspiration. Be part of something Astro-ordinary!

Interact Club
Interact Club

There isn’t an exact way to put everything that HCInteract is into words, because service—as our passion—does not have boundaries.

Interact is a group of 35 students who are passionate about contributing to our community. Apart from regular community service sessions with our six beneficiaries, ranging from working with children to interacting with the elderly, we also engage in other ad-hoc service opportunities and outreach events. Some of these activities include the Christmas block party at Tembusu Senior Activity Centre, mass Community Involvement Projects such as Habitat for Humanity and Food from the Heart, as well as the Service Learning Summit, which reached out to over 100 students to build their empathy for prominent social issues in Singapore.

Moreover, we seek to advance international understanding through initiatives like the Asia Clean Project. We worked with over 80 students from Nepali Girls High School in Darjeeling, India, which faces serious issues with plastic pollution, to cultivate good recycling habits.

Driven by our motto of “Service above Self”, interactors learn from and serve with one another, forging long-lasting connections within our respective Interact Groups, across the Club, and with those whom we serve. Our vision is to create a community as close as family, an environment which promotes initiative and proactiveness, as well as a system of open communication and dialogue, strengthening the presence of Interact Club in Hwa Chong and the wider community.

If you have an open mind, a zeal for service, and a willingness to lead, we’re excited to have you in our 41th batch of Interactors!

Outdoor Education Students' Club
Outdoor Education Students' Club

The Outdoor Education Students’ Club (OESC) engages in an exciting array of activities such as climbing, kayaking, cycling, trekking, and more! We also organise large-scale events like the inter-school Outdoor Education Forum and intra-school Outlast initiative, which raise environmental awareness and promote the love of the outdoors to our wider community. As COVID restrictions finally ease, you'll get the opportunity to go on an overseas trip too!

A small but mighty close-knit batch of 17, we are tied together by our common passion for the great outdoors. It is our hope to share this very love with others, all while gaining confidence in both hard and soft skills ourselves.

With our sessions being largely self-initiated, planned and directed, every member gets the opportunity to exercise their autonomy in defining and building the CCA; to grow as leaders and outdoor advocates through being ICs and facilitators for various activities and events.

Don’t worry if it all sounds a little daunting! Your batchmates will be alongside you every step of the way. Together, there’s no limit as to what can be accomplished – take it from us: the satisfaction felt with each CCA session or event successfully pulled off is unparalleled.

Lastly, a fun fact about us: 2 CCAs with rich traditions – Tahan Mountaineering Club and Outdoor Adventure Club – were merged to form OESC! In 2025, we will welcome our 11th batch of OESC members. If you love the outdoors too, come join our warm and dynamic family!

Hwa Chong Canoeing. Experience, journey, family — it’s hard to put a finger on any one characteristic that defines HCanoe, because there’s an unparalleled richness to this team that we’ve come to hold close to our hearts. Beyond just a CCA, canoeing is a lifestyle. Embracing challenges, pushing our limits and achieving excellence. It requires discipline, tenacity and rigour. Yet, it is precisely these that make it all worthwhile.

Canoeing is arguably one of the most therapeutic sports Hwa Chong has to offer — slicing through the tranquil waters of Macritchie as the sun gradually illuminates the sky is truly as cathartic as it gets. The camaraderie of being part of a team is a bond like no other. Canoeing is a sport that rewards hard work and resilience. It teaches you valuable life lessons beyond the classroom.

Have no prior sports experience? Neither did most of us joining the girls team. As long as you are willing to try, willing to strive and willing to fight, we warmly welcome you to the HCanoe family.

Have you ever come across action movie scenes where the main character effortlessly throws a villain onto the ground and you go “Wow! That’s SO COOL!”?

Have you ever wanted to try these throws? Look no further because Hwa Chong Judo is right here for you!

Judo, 柔道, otherwise known as “The Gentle Way”, involves both standing and ground techniques. Some of these techniques include throws, pins, chokes and armlocks. Contrary to popular belief, there is no kicking or punching in Judo!

Hwa Chong Judo was established in 1990, and throughout the years, we have evolved to become strong contenders in the annual National School Games. In 2022, we attained championships in the A, B and C divisions. Led by our Head Coach, Mr Tang Soon Onn, we strive to push ourselves to our limits and reach greater heights.

If one word could be used to describe our team, it would be “family”. Our team’s strong sense of camaraderie keeps us going even when times get tough, motivating us to endure tough trainings that strengthen us physically and mentally.

We strongly believe in working hard and playing hard (both on-court and off-court!) and we always make sure to enjoy ourselves!

Our team is an incredibly bonded one, constantly motivating each other to work hard to reach our goals. Ultimately, we are a closely knit group that we can really call family.

Touch Rugby
Touch Rugby

The all-female Hwa Chong Touch Rugby team is made up of dedicated players who all are driven towards self-improvement.

As a team sport, HC Trug empowers each individual by providing every team member with equal chances and opportunities to contribute to the team, where every member is important. Collectively, all of us work to continually improve our sporting abilities, moral character and academic performance. We strive to cultivate an encouraging culture and to never leave anybody behind.

Here is an example of a typical training session:

Before our coach Karen arrives, we warm up first. The next step is to learn new strategies or review existing ones. We also perform rigorous exercises that improve our fitness as we polish our fundamentals. In the latter stages of training, we compete against one another in games where we use the strategies we've learned to improve our gameplay. Next, in small teams, we play mini-matches against one another toward the end of the session to practice using the techniques we have learned and to improve team communication and cohesion. Finally, we typically have team meals following our training sessions where we create cherished experiences as a team.

Without a doubt, HC Trug is more than just a CCA; we are a close-knit family that supports one another through successes and failures, both on and off the field.

Track & Field
Track & Field

Picture this. You are seated in the call room of the National Stadium, waiting to be called upon. Your heart is racing a million miles an hour as you step onto the track. The thunderous cheers from a sea of red and yellow reaches a crescendo, but the pounding of your heart seems to drown all of it out.

The atmosphere is electrifying.

Adrenaline courses through your veins as you ready yourself to deliver the performance of your lifetime. All your hard work over the past year has culminated in this final jump, throw or perhaps a mere 12.5 laps around the track.

Water Polo
Water Polo

Waterpolo is a competitive team sport played between 2 teams, with 6 players and 1 goalkeeper on each team. Teams attempt to score goals by throwing the ball into the opposing team's goal. Integrating the concept of swimming and hand ball, waterpolo is a thrilling yet challenging sport. To achieve the objective of scoring more goals than the opponent, Waterpolo requires unconventional skills like swimming, treading water, single-handed passing, shooting, all whilst applying strategies taught.

Waterpolo pushes us to our limit both physically and mentally, thus building resilience. Its fast-paced nature builds necessary hand-eye coordination, and teaches us to anticipate and react fast to constant switching from attack to defence. Aside from skills, we hope to develop interpersonal skills in you, such as teamwork, sportsmanship as well as leadership. Not to forget, you can look forward to forging strong friendships with your teammates as you overcome challenges together. Join the waterpolo family and make waterpolo your #whyhc!

For girls, if you lack experience, fret not! Your passion to learn this new sport will do the job. The stamina and technical skills required can be developed during CCA, with the guidance of our experienced coaches and dedicated teachers-in-charge, who build our endurance through swim sets, teach us the techniques required, and advise us on life outside the pool as well.

Wushu 武术
Wushu 武术

A staple in every Chinese New Year and Mid Autumn Festival performance here in Hwa Chong, this CCA jumps around to the latest music and performs acrobatic feats in front of the entire school and is, no doubt, the one performance everyone eagerly awaits. This CCA is none other than Hwa Chong Wushu (华中武术)!

Wushu is both a sport and a performing art. We practice with different weapons and styles, but more importantly, we inculcate and nurture our students with the values of wude (武德), an essential part of every Wushu member.

We compete in the National School Games around March to April every year. During this season, we train 3 times a week, from 3.30pm to 6.30pm. Our training starts with warm-up (基本 功) and then we train our Wushu routines. We end off training with exercises to improve our fitness.

Aside from all the training, we are a fun-loving family who works hard and plays hard. Want to know more about us? Check out our Instagram page @hcwushu and feel free to ask us any questions. We welcome everyone ─ with or without experience ─ to the Hwa Chong Wushu family!
