      Nobody says this school is a top school in Singapore. It is an average school. Can you imagine the performance of the rest of primary schools like Compassvale, North Vista, Sengkang, etc?


      This school can be improved just like Rulang in Jurong. Rulang was a simple primary school in kampong. Teachers used cane, pulled ears and wooden rulers to discipline the students during kampong days. The school gained popularity over the years. Principals changed so many times over the years.

      Rivervale is only 12 years old. What to expect? The oldest alumni is only 21 years old. RGS oldest alumni is 133 years old.

          True true . Why compare a child with an old n mature n rich adult ? Ha ha!

          The Cca is yet to be all rounded probably due to lack of space in the current premise too. hope with the new upgrading , it will be better.

          NC is under hokkien clan, thus it is a Aided sch , RV is a pure govt sch. So u know which sch is rich right? Thus unfair to compare facilities n activities provided bet these two sch.

          After all , as parents of kids study here, u should support the sch n work closely to make n motivate our kids to benefit the fullest n enjoy pri education here .

            Feedback: The school has to revamp prefect selections at P2. These students are selected based on ‘teachers’ pets, their mothers are PVs’. This is purely bias and unprofessional.


            Moreover, P2 boys are at disadvantage because boys at this age only know how to play. But they will change once they reach P4/P5/P6. They are not given any more chance to become prefects?

            Should adopt sec/JC system. Every year open applications to P3/P4/P5 ranging from first - last class. Open applications who want to become prefects, write testimonials and interviews. No doubt testimonials are written by mothers, but the interviews are solely depend on the child.

            Past head prefects were not up to standard. They didnot have strong voice and leadership quality to lead the schools for National Anthem and Pledge. Monfort Junior and ACS pri, they select the head prefects are so solid, can be on par with National Day Parade Commander.

                  The new wings to the school are almost complete. Anyone have details for the inhouse student care?

                    There are so many student care centres around this school.

                        many people go to Dexus ( not sure is this the right spelling). Located beside St Anne’s church.


                        There is another one at the block behind the school. I often see the students lining up and walk towards that direction. Not sure the exact location.

                        There are many more behind the rows of terrace houses along Punggol Road.
