School Leaders
It is a privilege to join Punggol View Primary School (PGVP), where we are committed to nurturing our students into Confident Learners and Active Citizens. At PGVP, we believe in creating a positive and enriching learning environment through a well-rounded curriculum that balances cognitive academic pursuits with the development of 21st Century Competencies (21CC) supported by Positive Education (PosEd). Our carefully designed programmes aim to equip students with the knowledge, skills, and dispositions they need to thrive in both current and future learning contexts. Notably, our signature programmes, the Applied Learning Programme (ALP) and Learning for Life Programme (LLP), provide meaningful opportunities for students to apply their learning beyond the classroom.

Prior to my appointment as Principal of PVPS on 16 December 2024, I served as Principal of East Spring Primary School. My journey as an educator began in 1999 as a Physics teacher at Yusof Ishak Secondary School. In 2002, I took on the role of Head of the ICT Department, followed by a stint at the MOE Educational Technology Division (ETD) in 2007. I started my school leadership journey as Vice-Principal at Nan Chiau Primary School and Fernvale Primary School from 2011 to 2017.
As a passionate advocate for Lifelong Learning, I firmly believe that educators must model continuous growth. I was fortunate to receive the MOE Post-Graduate Scholarship in 2005, which allowed me to pursue a Master’s in Instructional Design and Technology. In 2024, during my sabbatical, I deepened my expertise by completing a Graduate Diploma in Applied Positive Psychology.
I am truly excited about the opportunity to work alongside the dedicated staff, supportive parents, and enthusiastic students of PGVP to deliver a values-based, holistic education for every child. To me, every student is unique and precious. Inspired by the Starfish Story, we are committed to bringing out the best in each child—nurturing their strengths, talents, and abilities.
As we work together to fulfill this shared vision, I believe that strong collaboration among students, staff, parents, and community partners will be the cornerstone of our success. I look forward to partnering with you to empower our students and take Punggol View Primary School to greater heights.
It is indeed a privilege to be a part of the Punggol View family. Punggol View prides itself in providing a rich learning environment for our students to develop to their fullest potential. It is every educator's hope to be able to help our students achieve success based on his/her own strengths. I also believe that we must have passion for things that we do as this will see us through challenging times and will eventually lead us to excellence.
Mdm Sharifah Samirah
Vice-Principal
I have a passion for History and Literature and graduated with BA(Hons). I have taught for about 21 years and was HOD ICT in my former school, Junyuan Primary School, since 2010. I was given the opportunity through the MOE Post-Graduate award to pursue my Master and in 2017, I took a year off to complete my Master in Curriculum and Teaching.
Learning never stops. I would want every PGVP student to continue to pursue their dreams and work hard towards it. There is no shortcut to success. Every hardwork put in will be worth the effort. But above all these, I firmly believe that having sound moral values are very important and that one must always be first in character. I'm proud to be able to join a team of passionate staff here in PGVP who is committed to grow every student into a Confident Learner and an Active Citizen.
I found inspiration in The Starfish Story - a tale narrating a young person throwing stranded starfish back into the ocean, making a positive impact one starfish at a time. It is indeed a privilege to be in the position to shape young minds and contribute towards creating an enriching learning experience for every child in Punggol View Primary School.
Mrs Sandra Theseira
Vice-Principal
Having previously served in Geylang Methodist School (Secondary) as a Year Head and HOD of English Language and Literature, I bring my own experience in both student development and curriculum. My journey in education has been shaped by a deep commitment to holistic education and a focus on creating a supportive and inclusive learning environment. I am excited to collaborate with my dedicated colleagues, esteemed parents and valued stakeholders to continue building an educational experience that prepares our students for a bright and promising future.
My passion lies in creating a school culture where every child feels seen, heard and valued. With a Master’s in Counselling from Monash University, I am dedicated to nurturing not only academic success but also the social and emotional well-being of our students. I firmly believe that a positive school experience encompasses not only rigorous academic pursuits but also the development of essential life skills and a strong sense of community.
I look forward to meeting and partnering with all of you to ensure that Punggol View Primary School continues to be a place where education goes beyond the classroom, fostering a passion for lifelong learning and personal growth.
I am excited to be a part of Punggol View Primary - a learning environment that is vibrant and exciting. I joined the education service in 1996 as a teacher at Red Swastika School. Subsequently, I served as the HOD Science in the school before being appointed as Vice Principal in Ai Tong School, followed by postings to Park View Primary School and Casuarina Primary School. This year, I have been posted to Punggol View as the Vice Principal (Admin). Although this is a new learning opportunity for me, nevertheless, I hope to be able to share some of my experience gleaned over the years to enrich the staff and students at Punggol View Primary.
Mr Michael Chong
Vice-Principal (Administration)
My educational philosophy has always been to provide students with a broad-based holistic education. Schools should equip students with the necessary life-skills and learning tools so that they are able to learn for life. With the help of our dedicated team of teachers, students should be able to pick up positive learning dispositions, values and attitudes for lifelong learning. As such, the educational environment, our classrooms and facilities must be able to allow teachers to impart learning and for students to become critical thinkers, self-directed learners and collaborative team members and leaders. Our school must also allocate appropriate resources to allow for teaching and learning to meet our students’ learning outcomes. I am very sure that, together with the vibrant team of teachers and administrators, we will work in partnership with parents and the community to create quality teaching and learning programmes for our students so as to make Punggol View Primary a choice school in Punggol in the years to come.
