Wait, wait! I know what it is short for!
They ran out of ideas when they named this one. Sounds like a retired Russian porn star (presenting... Innova LaPleasure!).
Lucky they didn't choose a similar word like "Original". Or your JC would have been named Origina Junior College ("Origina? Like that orange drink?")
Is this a new trend? Are we forsaking our first love "-polis" for names ending with "-a"? Say it isn't so!
-A-sta Junior College ("We love grades")
-Ovula Junior College (School of Obstetrics & Gynaecology)
-Percola Junior Collge (study to be a barista here)
-Gangsta Junior College (Ah Beng high school)
Excerpt:
"The Ministry of Education will start a new junior college (JC) in Jan 2005.
The new JC, which has been named Innova JC, will welcome students at its campus located at 21 Champions Way, when the new school year begins next Jan."
