Honouring Traditions, Shaping Destinies, Inspiring Legacies.

For seventy years, River Valley High School has upheld its motto “Upholding Virtues, Contributing to Society” and nurtured generations of students in wisdom, character, and courage.

Our 70th anniversary logo encapsulates this journey: the mountain reflects the challenges conquered, the rising sun symbolises the guiding torch of hope, and the river signifies the enduring spirit through generations of students and staff. The heart embodies the gratitude and pride of all RVians and alumni.

With platinum, red, and blue representing resilience, strength, and renewal, River Valley High School celebrates this milestone with timeless vitality – poised to continue nurturing thinkers, leaders, and achievers of character, shaping destinies and inspiring legacies for Singapore and beyond.

桃李争辉七十载，薪火相传谱新章。

一直以来，立化秉持立德立功，化愚化顽的校训，培育无数学识扎实、品格坚定、勇于担当的学子。

RV70标志凝聚立化七十年育人精神：高山象征挑战与奋进，旭日寓意希望与前行，河流展现精神传承，心形表达校友情谊与感恩。
