How Primary One Distance Works for One Leonie Residences

For Primary One registration, the Ministry of Education gives priority in the later phases to children living within one kilometre of a school, and then to those living between one and two kilometres away. The distance is measured on OneMap between the home address and the school, and the rules are set afresh each year.

Because the final address of each residence is confirmed by the developer, parents should check the distance from the confirmed address on OneMap and confirm the current rules with MOE before relying on a band. The distances here are straight-line measurements from the site, given as a guide.

With Orchard station nearby, the Thomson-East Coast and North-South Lines also put schools across the city within a short ride.

Many international schools serve families in the Orchard, Tanglin and Bukit Timah districts as well, so a family at One Leonie Residences can choose among local and international schools on merit.

Getting to School From One Leonie Residences

Checking Distances From One Leonie Residences

OneMap, the Singapore Land Authority’s map service, includes a school query that shows which schools lie within one kilometre and within two kilometres of a given address. Parents can use it with the confirmed address of their residence at One Leonie Residences to see exactly which schools fall in each band.

The distances on this site are straight-line measurements from the site, so the band for a particular school should always be confirmed on OneMap before registration. The location page lists every distance.

Preschools Near One Leonie Residences

For younger children, preschools and kindergartens are found throughout the Orchard, River Valley and Tanglin areas, including centres in and around the malls of Orchard Road and Great World. Parents usually choose among them by programme and by daily routine, and the short distances around Leonie Hill make most of them a quick drive or walk from home.

For families relocating from overseas, the Ministry of Education also publishes information on admission to local schools for international students, and the international schools of the Orchard, Tanglin and Bukit Timah districts set their own admission calendars.
