      Hello Everyone~


      Just email to MOE and change our choice of CHIJ Toa Payoh to Marymount under 2C.

      MOE kindly informed us to re-consider as CHIJ TP is under 1-2km range. We have Hong Wen as our alternative choice as is within 1km but in the end, we choose Marymount (>2km). πŸ™‚

      All the best to all!

          Hi, do you mind elaborating on emailing the MOE? You have registered for CHIJ TPY under earlier phase, right? So, to withdraw, do we have to email the MOE? TIA.

            Well, at first we thought of betting on CHIJ TP and if can't get int, then Marymount. After some feedback and also looking at the Marymount balloting history under 2Cs, we thought on the safer side we will just change to Marymount under 2C. If 2Cs also cant get in... school will be allocated by MOE right? so better to be on the safer side to be in a school within our top few choices than being allocated to one that we will not choose. πŸ˜›

            Also looking at the school's website, the good feedback from friend and online help us on our decision.
            ( I remember my mum told me MCS was one of her choices for my primary school )

              Hi,


              I’m thinking of enrolling my girl in MCS for 2016 intake. We are staying in Punggol. Would like to know if there is anyone staying in Punggol with girl studying in MCS and does she enjoys going to school?

                Apologies, I didnt really kind of elaborate clearly. Mine was kind of different as we are currently staying overseas, so we can actually send our registration online or at Sg embassies. For us, we need to submit at least a week earlier if I remember correctly. We are registering under Phase 2C, so Im not sure is it able to withdraw from earlier phase. We are still waiting for our result.

                    Hi all, I am thinking of enrolling my gal in either MCS or St Margaret in phase 2C. We stay more than 2km from both schools. How come the take up rate for MCS is slow for phase 2c? In a dilemma now as there is a high chance that there will be balloting for St Margaret. Can someone give me more confidence in MCS? Thanks!

                      Hi all parents!


                      I have just done my registration for MCS this afternoon and while I was there, I witnessed the practicing of the Rhythmic Gymnastics children.
                      They are real good and my girl was so attached with watching them she refused to leave.
                      The only problem I had was the children sitting down all around the lobby, next to the driver's passage ways, while waiting for ?bus to pick them home… Is this always like that or is this so disorganized due to the holding site infrastructure? I also don't see teachers following them to wait for the buses.
                      One more, as this holding site is very old (in fact I was in the same holding site years ago while my school was renovating)… The lights are so bad along the corridors and passageways. Is there any potential problem / issue on this?

                      Anyway, I am glad and I hope we could form some chat here to build some rapport for future info sharings etc. πŸ™‚

                        Hi Selene655,
                        Me and my daughter were there too and yes she was amazed with the practice. I've been showing her pictures through MCS FB and that day it was the first time she saw them in (real) action πŸ˜„
