OverviewHigh Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Saint Andrew's Secondary School is a government-aided Anglican boys' secondary school in Potong Pasir, Singapore. It was established in the 19th century and still operates along traditional British lines. The school was founded in 1862 by the Reverend Edward Sherman Venn. In 1872, the Colonial Chaplain Canon J.A. Beccles applied to the Government for financial aid, which was granted, so that in May 1872 St. Andrew's School became a grant-in-aid institution. The growing school moved from Upper Hokkien Street to Victoria Street and then in 1875 to a four acre site on Stamford Road. By the 1920s the school's enrolment had reached 800 boys. In the 1930s a system of prefects was instituted, and the school in this period became known for its boxing and rugby. Full Product DetailsAuthor: Lambert M. Surhone , Miriam T. Timpledon , Susan F.
