Past year themes

PSLE Oral 2025 — what came up, rebuilt as practice.

Two stimulus themes were reported by candidates after the 2025 oral examination. We have rebuilt both as full drills — picture, three questions in exam order, model answers, and a parent script.

Please read: These are the two themes candidates reported after the 2025 oral examination. The pictures and questions here are our own — this is not a reproduction of the examination paper, and psleoral.sg is not affiliated with SEAB or MOE.

Questions parents ask about the 2025 paper

What came up in the PSLE English Oral 2025?

Candidates reported two stimulus themes: an ice cream cart with a long queue on Day 1, and a busy hawker centre on Day 2. The examination paper itself is not released, so the pictures and questions on this page are our own, written around those themes.

Are these the real 2025 examination questions?

No. PSLE oral papers are not published. We have written original questions and model answers around the themes candidates recalled, which is what makes them useful for practice.

Will the same themes come up again?

Not usually in the same form, but the underlying ideas repeat constantly — graciousness in a shared space, patience, traditional trades, and consideration for the people who work around us. Practising these two builds vocabulary that transfers.

How should we use this page?

Treat each one as a full ten-minute drill: show the picture for thirty seconds, ask the three questions in order, and wait five seconds before helping. The model answers show what a complete response sounds like.
