"St Gabriel's is so good but the exam was a bit hard but It was simple and I always try my best and I like this school 😀😃"

"While teachers are caring, I would not recommend this school for academically weaker students. As a parent to a kid, I was informed that remedial or academic support lessons are only available at Primary 5 based on MOE or school policy. To me, that is not timely intervention. Basically the parent has to source for external tuition from outside to assist the child in his studies since there is no additional support for weaker students to help them at lower Primary."

"One of the best neighbourhood primary schools in my opinion and I am glad that I had spent my 6 six years studying there. Teachers and Coaches were all dedicated in their roles and were always very encouraging."

"My son graduated from this school 2 years ago. I’m really grateful that he got into St Gabriel Primary. My experience with this school was that the teachers are very supportive and they try to relate to the boys."

"Damn good school! Even though they don’t have a lot of money, they use it wisely. Around 2 years ago, they upgraded their grass field to a synthetic one. All the subjects over there are not boring( except social studies) . The teachers over there are mostly very kind.( except Mr Fernandes) My English teacher, Mrs Koh, was going to through our oral work for the after school oral. She perfectly predicted the topic and had many years of teaching that she might also predict the PSLE. A few years ago, Mrs Koh predicted 2 out of 3 of the oral questions. Definitely the best teacher in this school. Every children’s and Teacher’s Day, they usually rickroll us but nowadays they don’t. Most people say that our principal, Mr Martin Tan is the best principal in the whole of Singapore. Would definitely recommend coming here!!!"
