Anyone has update on St Andrews Junior?
Many thanks! -
Hello parents. I'm Pearl from The Straits Times, and I'm looking to speak to some parents who are taking part in this year's Phase 2C registration exercise. Do you think the new rule of reserving 20 places in phase 2C in all schools been helpful? What do you think of it? Please contact me at [email protected] or 63195875 if you would like to share your experience. Will PM you my mobile phone number too if you PM me. Thanks parents!

Called MGS at around 11am today. Heard from the staff <1km already 15 SP registered. Also heard that there are at least 2 sets of twins this time. Think its gonna be another tough round of balloting this time...any one got any updates fom Pei Hwa or RGPS? Thank you!
Sorry for the twins, does that mean if 1 of them gets in and the other one will automatic qualify for a seat? 2 pairs = 4 seats? Thanks for clarification. -

Yes. 2 pairs = 4 seats. When comes to ballot, those two numbers for twins will be written on one ball. -

Hi, just to share that applicants more than 2km away from Marymount Convent did not need to ballot last year for Phase 2C. Those who register for Marymount Convent in Phase 2C last year - ALL got in successfully without the need to ballot.littleprince:
[quote=\"littleprince\"]May I know how do I interpret this figure from the balloting history? App is 543% for 2c no of school vacancies is 330. How do I read this? 543% X 330 = no of applicants for that phase??
Appreciate if someone could advise. My relative is for 2c tomorrow and I am checking on whether his odds are high. He is SC ,within 1km to ATS and more than 2km to marymount
My friend used Marymount Convent as backup for 2Cs. She was more than 2km from Marymount Convent. She told me it was a traumatic experience to ballot during Phase 2Cs last year as she was more than 2km away. She was lucky in the ballot and manage to secure a vacancy for her child.
My advice: Choose Marymount Convent School as your first choice girls' school in Phase 2C. Confirm can get in based on past statistic history. You can monitor and go down \"look see\" on first 2 days. On the 3rd day of Phase 2C, you must make your decision by Friday afternoon. There are 161 vacancies for Phase 2C so make good use of Phase 2C to enrol your child.
My child has been nurtured both holistically and academically in Marymount Convent School. They have great teachers and good principal and vice-principal leadership. The only factor that pulled me back from registering in Marymount Convent last year was distance factor. My child enjoys her bus ride on the school bus and used the bus journey as bonding time and socializing time with her peers.
With my child's good academic performance, it is easy to seek a transfer to nearby reputable, good schools, which will accept her. But one thing my child has requested for is \"Never send her to another school\" as she loves the friends in this school too much.
The top score was 26x for Marymount Convent last year PSLE. The exact score I'm not too sure. A friend's daughter took the PSLE exam last year and knew about the top PSLE T-score but forgot the exact figure.

I am quite a fussy parent too and I only want the best for my child. Therefore, it was the wisest decision I have ever made to enrol my child in Marymount Convent. I'm not a Catholic but I still chose this school. The mission, vision, values and the niches in Rhythmic Gymnastic and Aesthetics are pulling factors that attract me to the school. The school also has a very active Parent Support Group.
Parents usually communicate through WhatsApp with other parents from same class. This is effective for communication between parents about what is going on in class, what homework for the day, what to bring to school the next day, reminders to revise 听写 and Spelling.
:please: Very pleased with the school.
:udawoman: The most prominent, Indranee Rajah, Senior Minister of State, Ministry for Law and Ministry of Education, was educated at Marymount Convent Primary School, Marymount Convent Secondary School and Raffles Institution, before going on to the National University of Singapore, where she completed a Bachelor of Law (Honours) degree in 1986.[/quote]Thanks Sembgal for the detailed review of this school! I am SOLD! But mine is a boy, would definitely consider Marymount as a 2C choice if I have a girl! My relative picked to register ATS in the end. Now I can only hope he gets the ballot! -
