River Valley Primary School Review — P1 Guide & 2026 Updates

About River Valley Primary School

River Valley Primary School is a co-ed primary school in Singapore, in the South zone.

It offers 14 CCAs.

School overview

River Valley Primary, 立化小学, was established in 1985 through the merger of River Valley Government Chinese Primary, River Valley English and Kim Seng Primary schools. Its crest’s three interlocking rings recall that merger. The school moved from River Valley Road to 2 River Valley Green in 2004, opened officially in 2005 and completed PERI upgrading in 2017. MOE records its community-service and leadership LLP from 2015. This is a primary-school history and should be kept separate from the similarly named River Valley High programme.

Comms-It Rt!, the ALP, starts with respectful speech, non-verbal communication, listening and turn-taking in lower primary. Middle-primary speech and drama develops perspective-taking; P4 moves from fictional stories to real-life narratives. Upper-primary pupils use communication for campaigns or initiatives around compassion and social issues. The page gives a progression of learning aims and activities, rather than evidence that every child becomes an accomplished public speaker. Parents can ask how quieter pupils participate and what feedback helps them improve.
