New Town Primary School got its name because it was situated in this new town where high-rise, low-cost Housing Development Board (HDB) flats were built.

In the early 1960s, Queenstown used to be a swampy area, where settlers lived in huts and farmed vegetables and livestock. As Singapore’s population grew, the need to provide adequate housing led to plans to develop Queenstown as Singapore’s first new town with mass public housing flats.

It was officially opened on 26th July 1965 by Dr. Goh Keng Swee, Minister of Finance. This made New Town Primary School as old as the nation-state of Singapore, which gained its independence on the 9th of August 1965.

In January 2012, Chengzhu Mandarin Centre was officially born!

The name “Chengzhu” comes from the Chinese idiom “Xiong you cheng zhu” (to have an image of bamboo in one’s mind), which illustrates the confidence that good preparation can bring when taking on new challenges. The word “cheng” also signifies growth. We chose the name “Chengzhu” because we aim to help our learners develop the tenacity and strength exemplified by bamboo.
