CHIJ Our Lady of Good Counsel is one of the 11 schools set up by the Infant Jesus (IJ) Sisters in Singapore. The Convent of Our Lady of Good Counsel, as it was originally called, was established in 1960 in a single building block at Cooling Close in Serangoon Gardens. The school was built to cater to the schooling needs of the families living in Serangoon Gardens as well as the rural areas of Yio Chu Kang and Seletar Hills.
An extension was added in 1964 to accommodate an overwhelming enrolment. For a short period from 1967, the school became a full school with primary and secondary classes. In 1970, the Convent of Our Lady of Good Counsel and St Joseph’s Convent, another IJ school at Hillside Drive, switched from full school status to become a primary school and a secondary school, respectively. The secondary pupils were transferred to St Joseph’s Convent, while the primary pupils at St Joseph’s Convent joined the Convent of Our Lady of Good Counsel.
In the mid-1980s, the school was renovated and the extension was completed in 1988. In 1992, the name CHIJ (Convent of the Holy Infant Jesus) was prefixed to all the IJ schools in Singapore to show a common identity. The name of the school thus became CHIJ Our Lady of Good Counsel.
In June 2004, the school was relocated to a holding school in Ang Mo Kio to facilitate the rebuilding of a new school at Burghley Drive in Serangoon Gardens. The new school was completed in 2007 and the official opening was held the following year. The school celebrated its 50th anniversary in 2010.
Under the PERI recommendations, the school was upgraded with a new wing consisting of a student care centre, special rooms and classrooms. The new facilities were unveiled in 2018.
