History

East Spring Primary School was established in 1999 in the eastern sector of Tampines New Town. The school started on 4th January, 1999, holding 10 Primary One classes with 400 pupils at Qiaonan Primary School. On 22 March, 1999, the staff and pupils moved to the new $13.6million premises at Tampines St 33. East Spring Primary School was officially opened by Dr Aline Wong, the former Senior Minister of State for Education and Member of Parliament for Tampines GRC on 3 August, 2001. The school has an environment conducive to learning. It also hosts the Science Exploria which is the East Zone Centre of Excellence for Science.

East Spring Primary School has since gained popularity in the neighbourhood. Currently, the school has a population of about 2350 pupils with 110 teaching and administrative staff.

The school believes in providing a holistic education to the pupils. Character building is regarded as fundamental to the development of an educated individual. Character building is a school-wide effort and it is systematically weaved into the daily lives of pupils through a range of activities and programmes.

The school culture is one that nurtures innovation and creativity. Pupils and teachers are constantly challenged to question the norms and find new and better ways of doing things. This innovative and creative culture is aligned to the vision of Thinking Schools, Learning Nation and it drives the school to become a learning organization that is constantly improving its processes to ensure that East Spring Primary School offers its pupils an education of the highest quality.
