      Hello.

      May I know how is the P3 level in terms of the class tests & exams?
      Is it stressful for the girls?
      Thank you.

        The sch has a new principal last year. There will be no more CAs for P3 & P4 girls. The report card will record only SA1 & SA2 results.


        There will be “pre-tests” or just informal tests done throughout the year. For my girl’s class, the exact pre-test dates are not given, except for Chinese. The girls r just told there will be a test next week… or it just happens. I think it depends on the teachers.

        So far, it’s not stressful for us. Tests adhere to MOE curriculum so they r not difficult. Math & Chinese classes r banded, meaning the girls go to different classes depending on P2 grades. The high ability class will get more challenging worksheets which are harder than pre-tests. Teaching is slower & more targeted in weaker classes, so it shouldn’t be stressful for girls who r weak in Math or Chinese.

            Hi all


            I’m thinking of enrolling my girl to MCS this year but We are not catholics. Just wondering if it’s going to affect her being able to integrate in the school?

            What are the processes that are religious?

            Thanks!

              I think majority are non-catholics. Non-catholic students won't need to take part in religious activities.

                      Hi Yvonnelaureina,

                      When my eldest daughter was studying there, we were staying at Admiralty. The was an 'express' school bus that picked up 8 girls living in Sembawang + Admiralty and he would then drive straight to school. Perhaps you can call Marymount Convent and ask for the bus contractor's telephone number, and check out the rates and timing.
                      I am unsure about online registration, because I have never done that. :imsorry:

                        Hi JSHS,
                        My put my 3 girls through this school. they did well. One has graduated with Hons from SMU, one is starting Uni and my youngest is doing her \"A\"s this year. The school have had many holistic programmes, besides good academic ones, that had benefited my girls. They enjoyed their 6 years there, and when they were in their Sec 1 & 2, they went back to help at school holiday camps and to visit some teachers.
                        As for the teachers, I guess some (from my girls' time) may have left and there are probably some new ones, so I cannot comment much.
                        :rahrah: :please:
