School History
Evergreen Primary was established in January 1999. The school started functioning with 22 classes of pupils from Primary One to Primary Four. It was temporarily housed in two separate campuses at Woodlands Ring Primary School and Woodlands Ring Secondary School. It then moved to its present premises on 22 March 1999, and was officially opened on 6 July 2002. The school celebrated its 10th and 20th anniversary in 2009 and 2019 respectively.
The school’s Learning for Life Programme, ‘Learning Through the Arts and Learning in the Arts’, provides every student with authentic learning experiences and develops their 21st-century competencies – particularly the development of socio-emotional competencies. These include the building of self-esteem, confidence and the school’s shared values.
In 2018, the school introduced two signature programmes – Multi-Modal Programme and That’s Great, It’s Friday – to provide a wide range of activities and opportunities for students to discover their interests and passion.

School Song
In 1999, Evergreen was founded
To nurture youth so fine
We raise a golden banner
Which proudly proclaim
For each of our endeavour
This is our aim
Evergreen, our Evergreen
Pure in Act and Joy in Learning
We’ll give our best
We’ll do our part
To live life with a golden heart
Evergreen, you are the reason to be keen
Evergreen, you give the vision we have seen
We’ll stand up tall with heads held high
We’ll give you all to touch the sky
A vision to be bold
A mission to uphold
Together we will strive
We’ll be strong and happy
We’ll be warm and true
One day we will see
Our vision coming true
