School History

Established in 1935, St. Teresa’s High School was initially named St. Teresa’s Sino-English Primary School. The school was housed in a rented bungalow at Kampong Bahru Road. The school’s emphasis was on providing Chinese vernacular education to its students.

During the Japanese Occupation, the school served as a refugee centre.

After World War II, a new school building was built next to the Church of St. Teresa. In 1965, the school accepted secondary school students. Hence, the school was renamed St. Teresa’s Sino-English School.

The school later became known as St. Teresa’s High School. In 1998, St. Teresa’s High School closed.

Principals:
- Reverend Father Stephen Lee (1935)
- Mr Tan Kong Teck
- Mr Chee Kah Lok (1945)
- Madam Lim Chu Suang (1955-1965)
- Mr Hsu Tsu Ter (Dec 1966-1978)
- Mr Tay Boon Gim (Jan 1984-1997)
