Produktbeschreibung

Chung Cheng High School is a Special Assistance Plan (SAP) secondary school in Singapore. It was opened in 1939 at Kim Yam Road by Aw Boon Haw and other businessmen. It started as an all boys school but became a co-ed school after World War II. The school is named after President Chiang Kai-Shek of the Republic of China, who is also known as Chiang Cheng Chung. Chung Cheng High School is the only SAP school with a branch school, now known as Chung Cheng High School (Yishun) located at Yishun St. 61. The main school is now located at 40 56 Goodman Road. Both schools are affiliated to Nanyang Junior College. Chung Cheng High School (Main) is renowned for its lake, known as the Zhong Zheng Hu; its size has been reduced by about two-thirds by several school-expansion programmes since the 1950s. The recent phase of upgrading cost Chung Cheng High School (Main) around $70 million, and saw the renovation of several buildings, such as the Administration Building. The new extension is built on a portion of the lake, with part of the building extending into the lake. The main building has the auditorium which was the largest in the whole South East Asia region when it was opened.
