Pei Hwa Public School was one of the main icons in the Jalan Kayu / Seletar West area and it was situated opposite Boh Sua Tian Lou ( Wireless Road).
History of Pei Hwa
- Established 1934 (British Rule)
- Wholly financed by early immigrants from China residing in Yio Chu Kang and Jln Kayu
- Operation of the school was interrupted during the Jap Occupation & WW2
- Restarted after war with renewed vigour with increase in student population
- In 1954 , through the generosity of Community leaders , 5 acres of land was purchased and new 2 storey school building erected.
- In 1976 , Pei Hwa Public school was one of the biggest & most complete village
School in Sinapore
- With the resettlement of many villages in mid 1980s and declining popularity
of Chinese education , the school's intake dwindled and this caused the Student
population numbers to drop from high of 1300 to 200
- School ceased operation in 1990
After a break of 15 years , a new school in Sengkang was build with the support from the Pei Hwa Foundation and it was renamed Pei Hwa Secondary School. A new beginning with an illustrious history not found in many other neighbourhood schools.
