Literature/PerfectMatchPrimaryHealthEducation is a series of Health Education textbook-cum-activity books written by Dr Michael Chia (and later with Dr Cecilia Leong and Dr Albert K. Liau,) based on the approved syllabus produced by the Singaporean Ministry of Education. The textbooks are always divided into three parts; Physical Health, Environment and Your Health, and Emotional and Psychological Health.

Rather unusually for a textbook, these textbooks contain a certain set of characters and something resembling a SliceOfLife plot. They revolve around 6 friends, Haron, Eileen, Arul, Lance, Ting Ting and Harry. The book explores the daily life of the superfriends, as well as the health-related issues that arise.
!!''Perfect Match Primary Health Education'' provides examples of:
* CerebusSyndrome: The books made for Upper Primary levels discuss more serious topics.
* CigaretteOfAnxiety / INeedAFreakingDrink: Arul briefly considers this when some boys offer him some cigarettes and beer.
* CreatorProvincialism: Theis book is written by Singaporeans, and are designated for Singaporean students, so naturally, the books take place in Singapore.
* DrugsAreBad / SmokingIsNotCool: The readers are ''highly'' encouraged to stay away from addictive substances such as cigarettes, alcohol and drugs. It is also made clear that using such things will get the reader in legal trouble.
* FunWithAcronyms: The books make good use of acronyms, such as PRIM[[note]][[/note]] or WEIGH[[note]]the steps to stand up to negative peer pressure, namely What?, Evaluate, I should...?, Give my stand, and How about...?.[[/note]].
** In fact, the superfriends' initials form the word HEALTH.
* LethalChef: Downplayed. The superfriends entered a cooking competition in the Primary 3 textbook but failed to prevent their food from getting contaminated. Naturally, the judges aren't happy.
* PeerPressureMakesYouEvil: Sometimes subverted, as the book makes a distinction between positive and negative peer pressure.
* ShoutOut: A subtle one- Lance's siblings are named [[ComicStrip/{{Peanuts}} Linus and Lucille]].
* TextbookHumor
* ThatMakesMeFeelAngry: This shows up a lot in the Emotional and Psychological Health section. Justified as that section is dedicated to teaching the reader how to deal with their emotions.
* TrueCompanions: The superfriends support each other through thick and thin.
