[edit] School History

Gongshang Primary was founded in January 1920 by Shi Su. The school was financed by Lin Zeyang and his fellow supporters.

Prior to 1986, the school was known as Chinese Industrial & Commercial Continuation School (南洋工商补习学校).

It began as a night school at 267 Tanjong Pagar Road - a place on loan from Yinbin Club. The school catered to the needs of the young migrants from China. On 1 March 1920, the school moved to 30 Enggor Street and a day school was initiated. It helped to provide education to the children of the migrants.
