Which Schools Are Near The Robertson Opus?

Published 23 October 2026

River Valley Primary School and The Robertson Opus

The nearest primary school to The Robertson Opus is River Valley Primary School, on River Valley Green, about 710 metres from the site in a straight line on OneMap. The developer’s brochure places it within one kilometre, about nine minutes on foot or three minutes by car.

For Primary One registration, priority depends on the home-school distance, which the Ministry of Education works out from the address of the home. The straight lines on this page describe the neighbourhood; for a particular home, the ministry’s own figure is the one to confirm before relying on it.

The table lists every school on this site’s schools guide with its straight-line distance from Unity Street.

Measured on OneMap (SLA) from the site; walking routes are longer. Home-school distance for Primary One is determined by the Ministry of Education.

Primary Schools within Two Kilometres of The Robertson Opus

Three more primary schools lie within about two kilometres. St. Margaret’s School (Primary), on Sophia Road, is about 1.4 kilometres from the site, and Anglo-Chinese School (Junior), on Winstedt Road, about 1.9 kilometres; the developer’s brochure lists both within two kilometres. Zhangde Primary School, on Jalan Membina, is about two kilometres away.

By the straight-line measurements, one primary school lies within the first kilometre of the site and three more within about two kilometres. The Ministry of Education determines the home-school distance for each school, so these figures serve as a first guide when drawing up a shortlist.

For schools further away, Clarke Quay station on the North East Line, about 670 metres from the site, runs north to Dhoby Ghaut, Serangoon and Punggol, and Great World station on the Thomson-East Coast Line, about 920 metres away, runs north to Orchard and Woodlands.

Secondary and University Study near The Robertson Opus

For older students, the School of the Arts, the specialised arts school on Zubir Said Drive, is about 1.1 kilometres from the site, and Singapore Management University, in the Bras Basah district, about 1.3 kilometres; the brochure gives SMU as about six minutes by bicycle.

From Fort Canning station, about 285 metres from the site, the Downtown Line reaches Bencoolen and the Bras Basah area in a stop or two, and Dhoby Ghaut, about 940 metres away, is an interchange of the North East, North-South and Circle Lines for longer journeys across the island.

The museums of the Civic District are within reach as well: the National Gallery Singapore is about 1.1 kilometres from the site, and the Victoria Theatre and Concert Hall and the Asian Civilisations Museum about 1.2 kilometres each.

Closer to home, the arts are next door. The Singapore Repertory Theatre stages its plays about 75 metres from the site, and STPI Creative Workshop & Gallery, the print studio and gallery on Robertson Quay, holds exhibitions and workshops about 200 metres away, about two minutes on foot by the brochure’s figure.

For Younger Children at The Robertson Opus

Within the development, the Robertson Kids’ Club, with its tree-shaped columns, is one of the rooms of the Opus Club on the second-storey deck, alongside the Robertson Reading Room. The Family Commons on the same deck hold a children’s sensory garden, a family lawn, a relaxation deck and the second gourmet pavilion.

Outdoors, Fort Canning Park begins about 440 metres away at its foothills, with gardens, heritage trails and open lawns on the hill, about five minutes on foot by the brochure’s figure. The river walk, about 300 metres from the site at Alkaff Bridge, is a popular route for runners, cyclists and evening walks.

A little further, Pearl’s Hill City Park, a quiet hilltop park of tall trees above Chinatown and Outram, is about 910 metres from the site, and the Singapore Botanic Gardens are about 3.5 kilometres away.

Within the development, the Oasis Court below the deck, with its tall trees, green walls and water curtain, and the Sky Forest on the roofs add more open space to explore.

Planning School Journeys from The Robertson Opus

Straight lines run shorter than the routes a child actually walks, and the brochure’s walking and driving times are approximate figures. The schools guide lists each school with its distance, the location page maps the neighbourhood, and the MRT and transport guide sets out the lines that serve the schools further away.

On the floor plans, the three-bedroom flexi and DuoFlex layouts of the Luxury Collection and the three- and four-bedroom premium homes of Block 9 give a family more room, and the Sales Concierge sends the price list on request with the homes still available. Showflat viewings are arranged by appointment through the Sales Concierge.
