Yishun Town Secondary School (YTSS) is a co-educational government autonomous secondary school in Yishun, Singapore.

History[]

The school was first established in 1986, originally sharing its premises with Yishun Secondary School and Yishun Junior College.[1] In 1988, the school moved into a new S$8.1 million campus along Yishun Street 21.[2]

Relation with other schools[]

Yishun Town Secondary School, Nan Chiau High School and Xinmin Secondary School had been holding combined sports meets annually since 2013 to give student athletes from the participating schools a platform to showcase their physical talent and also for the schools to unite to celebrate and enjoy. Apart from the inter-school competitions among students, parent-teacher races are also featured to engage the parents and school staff. This yearly event was stopped in 2017 due to unknown reasons.
