It offers 19 CCAs.

School overview

Chongfu began as Chong Hock Girls’ School in 1915, founded by the Singapore Hokkien Huay Kuan beside Thian Hock Keng on Telok Ayer Street. Teaching changed from Hokkien to Mandarin in 1930. Boys with sisters at the school were admitted in 1949, and it became government-aided in 1957. It moved to Yishun in 1985 and adopted the name Chongfu School in 2010. MOE’s narrative and milestone table differ on the earlier Primary School renaming year, so that precise year is omitted.

Silent reading before assembly covers Primary 1 to 6: English books on Monday to Wednesday and Mother Tongue books on Thursday and Friday. Buddy Reading supports struggling Primary 1 to 4 readers from 6.50am to 7.10am on designated days, with selected Primary 3 and 4 peer tutors. Progress is assessed before pupils leave the programme. Writing packages run across six years; reflective journals begin in Primary 3. Chongfu 811 broadcasts weekly with identified student DJs and guest applications, offering another speaking platform.
