Actually, back in my days, MS & CHS was on par, I don’t know what the hype is about CHS. According to friends, it’s becoz CHS produced alot of scholars in the past few years and perhaps offer the GEP programme? I’m sure given time, MS will catch up too. Anyway, the reason I insist on a Catholic school for my boy is precisely becoz the emphasis is usually on being thankful, and hence provide a more well rounded education, that life is not just about academic pursuit. Also becoz of the church affliation, students of various academic calibre are admitted (refer the SJI alumni saga), so less elitism.

Does anyone know the children are allowed mobile phones? I saw the children lining up to make phone calls on pay phones so I thought they are not allowed mobile. Can anyone shed light on it?

Think MS just changed principal, the last principal was a brother.
CHS has upper hand, coz they have GEP program and they accept bright bright students at p4, so that would push their standard to the higher level?? And Since MS dun have GEP, their bright bright students have to leave the sch to go to GEP school. So their result drop?? :lol: -
they can bring handphone but must ensure dont lose it. sch will not be responsible if they lost the hp. and they cant take it out during lesson time. i supp after class not in sch classrm is ok.
to me got gep or not dont bother me cos i dun expect my boy is that type. so long its reasonably gd its ok -
Reasonable gud meaning?? Other catholic schools also reasonably gud mah.
MS is considered very gud, coz it's after all, a SAP school. -
Anyone worried about Chineses at MS?? sigh I’m worried my boy cant cope!!

CHS did well in the last few years. However I saw that among the top pupils, quite a number are not local. Correct me if I am wrong. Also, bearing in mind they do have a few classes og GEP, I expect the PSLE to be much better. At the end of the day, it is the teachers, your child learning attitude and most importantly, US, the parents! For me, MSH is a Catholic school. I wouldn't have consider it if it is not.
BTW, GEP doesn't mean the pupils will have good PSLE results. Don't equate intelligence with academic performance.

I want to delay HP to as late as possible. Since he will be going student care after school, I think it is ok. I'll wait till days like he has to stay back on his own and what happen if maid doesn't show up.Namie:
