TEMASEK JUNIOR COLLEGE
Learn More About The Temasek Junior College
The Temasek Junior College was founded in 1977 and given the name Temasek, which means ‘Sea Town,’ the original name for Singapore. In the hopes of conserving the spirit of ancient Singapore in an age of fast modernization, TEMASEK JUNIOR COLLEGE gets appropriately named after the country. Furthermore, the name gets chosen to honor the nation’s ancestors, who guided Singapore through its early years with strength and determination. The first set of instructors, led by our founding Principal Mr. Wee Heng Tin, created TJC’s slogan as a rallying cry for all TJCians to contribute to our institution, community, and nation.

Co-Curricular Activities:
Our pupils’ personal and moral character gets developed through Co-Curricular Activities (CCAs). Students can identify and explore their passions through our Personal Development, Character and Leadership, and Values-in-Action programs. Academic achievement, a love for community, creativity, adventure, and entrepreneurship are all values we hold dear. All students get expected to join an external CCA, regardless of whether they have previously or want to join one. CCA provides students with opportunities to connect with students from other classes and levels outside the classroom. Every year, intra-school and inter-school competitions and concerts allow pupils to demonstrate their abilities while also learning to work in groups.
