Mummies, have you heard? MCS will have to move soon as LTA will be claiming the land back to build a new expressway! Wonder when and where MCS will move? :?

Hi preciousmoments,

Yikes!!! I hope we don't have to move....
My nephews are in SJIJ and next year(if i'm not mistaken) they too have to move to the East while their school is being upgraded!!!! Logistical nightmare!!!And they live in Woodlands!
Maybe ours will go through some upgrading too?we are going single session soon right? :?

From TODAY, it states that the developements like marymount Terrace and Orange Valley Nursing Home and GS chapel will be affected by kindergarden and MCS will stay as it is. But hvg said that with the construction work going on within such close proximity, the school will sure be dusty and noisy...!!!

Here is the impt portion from the news as 'cut and pasted'


In a massive acquisition exercise, the Government will have to acquire some 40 lots and over 30 partial lots of land for the construction of the NSE.

This means that houses along Marymount Terrace, as well as several properties on the Marymount Convent site including the Orange Valley Nursing Home, the Good Shepherd Chapel and Rose Villa, will have to relocate.

However, Marymount Kindergarten and Marymount Convent School will remain where they are.

The Urban Redevelopment Authority said the sites at Marymount Terrace and Marymount Convent will be considered for residential development after the completion of the new expressway.\"

Think eventually MCS will still be affected...

Hi autumn82 and jesyeo,
Ya, hard MCS won't move too far away from Bishan. From what I gathered from the newspaper, MCS is not moving anywhere just yet. The nursing home and the church will move out by 2013.

However, having said that, we have to anticipate MCS will have to undergo PRIME to be ready for single-session eventually and MCS will still have to relocate temporarily for 2 years. Let's just hope that it won't be relocated too far from the current location.
