Boarding Arrangements

The school offers boarding at two hostels: ACS (Independent) Boarding School and Oldham Hall. From 2018, all new international students residing in Singapore without parents must commit to staying in one of these hostels for a minimum period of one year. Both hostels host students from other ACS schools and provide modern facilities in a supportive and safe environment. A limited number of homestays with private families approved by the school are also available through the International Pastoral Coordinator.

Uniform Requirement

The full school uniform must be worn with the school badge at all times. Chapel days require a white shirt or blouse with tie, and formal wear is compulsory for designated events such as Founder's Day, Speech Day and when representing the school; the PE kit is mandatory for PE lessons. Footwear must be plain white or black shoes with white socks, and hair/attire must meet grooming standards. Uniform can be purchased from Popular Book Store (School) behind the canteen or from Bibi&Baba at Far East Shopping Centre, Singapore 238882.

The canteen is a 550-seat facility serving Chinese, Western and Vegetarian cuisines, along with snacks, and serves as a social and study space for students.
