Where We've Come From

The School started under the leadership of Miss Coral Dixon with 32 students and seven teachers. By the end of the first year, the school roll exceeded 200.

The campus moved to Emerald Hill, directly behind Orchard Road.

Again, the school expanded out of its space and moved to Ulu Pandan, near Clementi.

After a further five and a half years, the school finally secured land to construct a purpose built campus at Lorong Chuan, the current site, with Mr Peter Bond as Principal.
