Primary School

Unlike children of today, I was pretty "blur" growing up. Didn't know what a primary school is until the 1st day of school....

I studied at Seraya primary school near Katong shopping Centre. Actually, the school no longer exists. The same plot of land is now occupied by Tanjong Katong primary school , which once housed Seraya and Fowlie primary school (but the two are rivals). Schools in those days always have the same design unlike the myraid designs of today. Don't know how to describe it but it's basically a long, two-storey building with classes inside. This design is still seen around the island but it's no longer the default design for new schools. What struck me is the big field in between or separating the two schools. Valuable real estate by today's standard, haha.
