Temasek Secondary School  School identity

The school crest has historical references. Its main colour - navy blue - represents the sea which recalls Singapore's original name 'Temasek' (meaning Seaport Town) and from which it derives its name. The supporting colours are red and gold. Red represents brotherhood and team spirit while gold is symbolic of prosperity and progress. The motif depicts two lions holding a radiantly burning torch. The lions signify the nation and the school. The torch illuminates the nation's and school's ethos of a well-balanced curriculum of education and sports.

The school song of Temasek Secondary School was composed in 1980, the year of its foundation.
