About Montfort Junior School
Montfort Junior School is a boys' primary school in Singapore, in the North zone.
It offers 8 CCAs.
School overview
Montfort’s roots lie in an English class established in rural Serangoon in 1916. The Brothers of St Gabriel took over in 1936; the primary and secondary schools became separate institutions in 1974. Montfort Junior moved to Hougang Avenue 8 in 1992. CNA reported on 25 April 2026 that girls would join P1 from 2028, applying in the 2027 registration exercise. The announcement did not extend to P2–6 girls in 2028. Families considering a daughter’s entry should follow the new intake arrangements rather than assume immediate transfer access.
The Maker Education ALP lists a concrete upper-primary sequence: P3 tries AR/VR, 3D pens and Makey Makey; P4 works on toy making and Makey Makey; P5 uses 3D printing and Bernina functional art. Recess activities include Strawbees and straws in Term 2, followed by assembling STEM science kits in Term 3. These are useful examples of the work children encounter beyond a programme title. The published description explains its hands-on approach but does not show how much individual practice each child receives.
