Neighborhood Guide

Key insights about the Tengah neighborhood, in which the school is situated.

Community & Lifestyle

Singapore's newest and "first smart and sustainable town," Tengah is currently under development and envisioned as a "forest town." The community will be pioneering, made up of new homeowners, and the lifestyle will be centered on green living, technology, and community interaction.

Landmarks & Notable Places

Central Park: A large park that will be the green heart of the town. Forest Corridor: A 5km-long, 100m-wide ecological corridor that will connect the Western Water Catchment Area and the Central Catchment Nature Reserve. Five Residential Districts: Plantation, Garden, Park, Forest Hill, and Brickland, each with a unique character.[31]

Local Culture & Activities

The town is planned to have a car-free town centre with shops and restaurants.[31] Community farming and gardening will be a key activity, with "community farmways" integrated into the housing precincts. Smart features will be deployed town-wide for energy and waste management.

Unique Characteristics

Tengah's unique identity is its groundbreaking concept as a "forest town" deeply integrated with nature. It is the first HDB town to be designed with smart technologies from the ground up and will be "car-lite," with underground roads in the town centre, prioritizing walking, cycling, and public transport.[31]
