Hillgrove Secondary School is a co-educational government secondary school in Bukit Batok, Singapore.

History

Hillgrove Secondary School was founded in 2000, and operated in Yusof Ishak Secondary School. Due to this temporary arrangement, Hillgrove Secondary School was the only secondary school that functioned in the afternoon session in Singapore between 2001 and 2002.
Hillgrove Secondary School actively improved its curriculum in the past decade, including introducing aerospace and space engineering into the school curriculum. In 2016, a group of students from Hillgrove Secondary School was selected to conduct experiments in a space-stimulated environment at Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency, under the Try Zero-G for Asia academic programme. It is the first time a Singapore proposal has been selected for the programme, which began in 2011.
