Principal's Message

We welcomed the academic year 2025 with our customary “Temasek Starts Right”, to set a good foundation for strong relationships and respectful interactions amongst staff and students in the course of the year. This year, our Primary 3 and 4 students enjoyed a day camp as they got to know their classmates better for a great 2025 together.

We are happy to welcome our new cohort of Primary 1 Temasekians and they have settled into the school well and quickly. We appreciate the support from our parent volunteers and the Primary 4 students who were buddies to our Primary 1 students. This year, we welcomed our first batch of MK @ Temasek students who have registered in our school for Primary 1. We look forward to continued close collaboration with our MK educators to bring rich learning to our Temasekians and MK children.

We pride ourselves on the experiences we have curated for the different levels which seek to develop all Temasekians into future-ready citizens contributing effectively to society. We hope that the Temasek Leaders’ Character Pledge, Learn for Life lessons (LFL) based on Steven Covey’s 7 Habits, the six school core values of Perseverance, Responsibility, Integrity, Open-Mindedness, Respect and Humility and our learning dispositions, ROAR (Responsibility, Open-Mindedness, Active-Learning and Resilience) will continue to guide our students in their pursuit of excellence in their learning journey while being anchored by the right values.

In preparing our students to be future-ready citizens, we are placing increasingly greater emphasis on our students’ knowledge of current affairs. It is important that they are aware of relevant local and global concerns now to be in a better position to make good and responsible decisions in the future, with a deeper and more comprehensive understanding of issues and how they have evolved over the years. More importantly, we also hope to develop our students’ civic literacy as they make sense of how issues affect them and their community, as well as the appropriate responses. We seek all parents’ and guardians’ support in this pursuit.

We are incredibly grateful for the encouraging Temasek community, made up of parents and other stakeholders who have stood with us. Much of what we do is possible because of this support. We are confident that we will be able to take our students to greater heights this year, in their different growth areas, as we continue to celebrate different successes.

Cheers to another great year together – Forward Together, Temasek!

Cheers,
Mrs Alison Ho
