Both campuses are linked to each other by the Jacob Ballas Bridge, forming St Andrew's Village (SAV).

SAS was founded on 8 September 1862 by Edward Sherman Venn[1] through adopting a private institution owned by Sim Quee and Tye Kim in Chin Chew Street, in Singapore.

During the early days at the Victoria Street site, both Hose and Gomes knew that the growth of the school would be hampered by poor accommodation.

The first building to go up was the chapel in 1875 and in that same year, the school vacated its cramped premises in Victoria Street and moved into the Stamford Road site.

There were scarcely enough classrooms and there was no playing field for a school which showed so much enthusiasm and aptitude for outdoor games.

The two-storey school buildings were completed and officially opened by S. W. Jones, the officer administering the government, on 29 July 1940.

In 1969, pre-university classes started and in 1978, St Andrew's Junior College was established and moved to Malan Road.

As part of the St Andrew's Village project, all three schools were planned to return to Woodsville and Potong Pasir.

Construction of the junior college started in June 2003 after the secondary school vacated the site and shifted to its holding location.

The village was officially opened on 26 August 2006, with the ceremony being held at the 1000-seater Cultural Centre in the junior college.

Some of the new facilities at the village include an Olympic size swimming pool, a 1,000-seat performing arts centre (Cultural Centre), air-conditioned school halls, gymnasiums, indoor basketball court, roof-top basketball court, tennis courts, cafe, rockwall, astro-turf artificial field and a sheltered bridge across the Kallang River to connect the junior and secondary schools to the junior college across the river.

Construction for a new combined indoor sports hall at the existing site of the secondary school canteen block commenced in November 2016 with target for completion by end 2018.

The new double size indoor sports hall block includes a new canteen for the secondary school.

The redevelopment plan is expected to be executed upon the completion of the indoor sports hall and PERI upgrading.

The Saints' spirit also permeated into music producing members of such recording artists as The Sundowners, Tornados, Wes Cossacks, Straydogs, and Electrons with Rex Goh Tee Huat.

], it rose to a new high with its boxing and rugby dominance over Singapore Boy's Town, Anglo-Chinese School, and Raffles Institution.

The 1990s saw competition from Anglo-Chinese School (Independent) and Raffles Institution, but St Andrew's has had a major revival in the sport in recent years.

[2] The rivalry between Raffles Institution and St. Andrew's continued in the ovals as the teams battled for the championship titles over the next few years.

School crestThe official heraldic description of the crest is: Azure, a saltire argent, in chief keys, in base a tiger's face.

The school later moved to a site in Potong Pasir because of noise pollution caused by the recently upgraded Pan-Island Expressway in 1996.

Following plans for the St Andrew's Village, the school moved into new buildings at the same Potong Pasir site in December 2004 at 2 Francis Thomas Drive, Singapore 359337.

As part of the St Andrew's Village project, the school has moved into new buildings beside SAJS since 2005 at 15 Francis Thomas Drive, Singapore 359342.

St Andrew's Junior College (SAJC) started as pre-university classes in 1969 and in 1978, moved to its site at 2 Malan Road.

However, in 1993, the college adopted back the original St Andrew's School crest, motto, song and hymn.
