Foundation years

The building committee led by Mr. Goh Tjoei Kok was formed in 1972. Construction of the college began in 1976 with funding and support from the Singapore Chinese Chamber of Commerce and Industry (SCCCI), which concurrently oversees the establishment of Hwa Chong Junior College, Singapore's second junior college and first government-aided junior college.
