      Hi


      I’m keen to enrol my son into MBS & hope to get a recommendation letter from Singapore Buddhist Federation to apply for phase 2B. I read from the thread back in 2012, will have to approach Singapore Buddhist Lodge first. Tried calling them but they mentioned they don’t accept membership now. Anyone here who went through the same situation? My sis is a nun based in Taiwan Kaoshiung temple. Will that be a consideration for them?
      Thank you in advance.

          Did Maha Bodhi P5 teachers really set the P5 exam too difficult this time that a boy committed sucide?

            Curious:
            1. how do you know its prob due to exam results and in particular CL?
            2. how do you know its Maha Bodhi?

            I can't seem to find any clues to these 2 at all.

              Did the papers mention that it is MBS?

              In any case and out of respect for the family and the boy, we should not speculate the reasons for the act.

                    Suggestion for parents who wants to place their kids in student care Centre affiliated to the school. I.e. The one at the void deck

                    Do a comparison w the one at Giant and you will find a vast difference.
                    The one above giant is more disciplined and they do not allow tv and computer games during school term.
                    As for the affiliated one at void deck I shall reserve my comments on them.

                      dear parents,

                      my hubby is alumni of MBS and consider to enroll our kids to MBS.

                      I’m happy to know that MBS is a SAP school that offers higher Chinese.

                      I saw in one post that one parent is missing the ex principal. I’m just curious about how is the principal managing the school?

                      is she students oriented?

                      and pls pardon me, no offense really. we are a Christian family, is there any weekly buddhist teachings that every students have to attend? or we can be exempted?

                        Hi


                        Actually I wanted to consider MBS this year but I heard from my neighbor the students got to bow down to Buddha during assembly. I confirmed this fact via email with the school earlier this year. And in the schools there are Buddha statues whereby students are told to bow down similarly when they see the Buddha statue. Although Christian students can be exempted, I am afraid my son will cave in to 'peer pressure' that's why I decided not to choose this school. Such a pity I got to give up MBS 😞
