I’m looking for carpool (pte transport).


We live at 11 Sin Ming Road which is abt 2km from current Braddell site. Bus pick up is 620am as driver intends to reach sch by 645am.
Sch bus quoted $120-140 due to different drop off in the afternoon.

Pls PM me if u r interested. I’m fine with one or two way pick up.

Thks, Ping

Have parents bought their school shoes? Any good recommendation?


Btw, what do we need to pack their school bag with on the first day of school?

Hi sembgal

I dont think 3G is for those kids who are weak in chinese. My gal has been assigned to 3G and thats her strongest subject and she’s also active in CCA. May be a mixed ability class too.

Hi, the 4 mixed ability classes starting from Pri 3 to Pri 6 are perseverance , gratitude, zeal and integrity.
P1 and P2 girls are randomly arranged into the 8 respective classes and not according to their abilities.

Chinese classes will be redistributed according to the girls Chinese ability. Since the girls were in P1, they have been grouped accordingly to their Chinese classes when they have to take Chinese lessons. I recalled P2 there is a Chinese class for pupils very strong in Chinese and a Chinese class for pupils who are weak. The rest of Chinese classes are mixed ability. During Chinese lessons, some girls have to go different classrooms. Next year may have to see how the Chinese teachers group the girls for their Chinese classes again.

Dear Parents and Alumnae of Marymount,


My daughter is starting P1 in 2016. I have some questions which I hope you can help answer:-

(1) On the first day of school, is she supposed to wear her PE uniform? Or her pinafore?

(2) Does she need to bring all of the compulsory books, workbooks, other materials, etc. on the first day of school? Or only selected ones? How do we know which books she needs to bring.

Thank you.

Help! Are we allowed into school canteen on the fist day? Also, my girl is supposed to take the 430pm bus home from ASC, wonder if the ASC will bring her to the bus initially? I heard from bus auntie that first day, the bus drivers will collect the girls from assembly point and lead them to the bus… And they may not have 430pm service the first week. Bus auntie wants me to advise them ASAP. So I am not sure what I should do now… Skip ASC that first week? Or pick her myself that week… And when ASC opens in Jan (think they are closed this week until school starts), confirms that they would send the girls to the 430pm bus?..

P1 and P2 girls will wear PE attire throughout their 2 years. I wasted money buying the pinafore which my girl never even wore 1 time in the 2 years. As for books first day just bring as per the time table if you have it. If not just bring pencil case, lunch box, colour pencils Personal organiser. There will not be any lessons on the first day.

We bought dd the black shoes (mary jane type) from Bata. Pretty durable and looked really sweet in her green pinafore. When she grew older, she wanted those with the elastic velco type.

We have just received our letter for Orientation and assignment of class and house. May I know what's the difference and purpose of the house? TIA!

Class name (like Humility, Compassion, etc) is the physical class your dd will be in for the whole of next year. House is for sports events. This year's sports champion was Amethyst. The girls have always done well. My girl was from Topaz and she topped high jump for her house this March, winning over Amethyst. I guess whatever house your dd goes into, just enjoy the fun, team spirit and cheer for her house! :rahrah:
