History of
Nanyang Primary School
To cope with the ever increasing demand for places in the school,
the School Management Committee (SMC) decided to add on a new wing
on a newly acquired piece of land at Coronation Road in 1981. Funds
were raised and construction began in February 1984. The new
building at 51, Coronation Road was completed in July 1985.
In 1990, the school was selected as the fourth primary Gifted
Education Programme (GEP) centre.
In 1993 the
former Farrer Primary School premises at 1A,
Lutheran Road, was acquired for use by the Primary 1 and Primary 2
levels. The school hence functioned at 2 campuses.
In 1994, some rooms were converted into classrooms to accommodate
the Primary 3 level classes so that all classes can function in the
morning session. However, increasing intake of students meant that
the Primary 3 level had to revert back to functioning in the
afternoon session later.
In 1998, Mdm Ho Chin Geok retired as Principal and she was
succeeded by Miss Lim Poh Suan.
In 1999, when Nanyang Girls' High moved to its new campus at Linden
Drive, Nanyang Primary took over the land at 52, King's Road. New
buildings were built to accommodate the all pupils in one
campus.
