About Bukit Timah Primary School

Bukit Timah Primary School is a co-ed primary school in Singapore, in the West zone.

It offers 15 CCAs.

School overview

Bukit Timah Primary’s roots include Bukit Batok East Primary, which started in 1959, and Bukit Batok West Primary, which started in 1960. They merged in 1984 as Bukit Batok Primary. The move from Jalan Jurong Kechil to Lorong Kismis in 2001 brought the present name; the official opening followed in 2003. A community project produced the orange Kagawara Bukit Timah orchid for that opening. The school retained its motto through the name change, while its current inquiry and music programmes developed later.

The current ALP combines inquiry with thinking routines and journals across English-medium subjects. Primary 3 pupils use soil-based learning plots, while Primary 4 uses hydroponics to observe growth and record findings. Literature for Everyone lists Queen of the Sky for Primary 3, House on Silat Road for Primary 4 and The Mudskipper for Primary 5. STEM examples include Strawbees structures and Micro:bit sensors. The Super Journaling Team is a further programme for interested Primary 4 and 5 pupils; it should not be confused with the wider classroom journaling experience.
