      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...!!!

      [quote=\"preciousmoments\"]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? :?

      Yes, I saw it too.. But it's like so weird... Tsk tsk. I'm already planning to shift over to Bishan area.. Now I wonder if MCS will be shifting or not.. 😒 Don't later I shift over then tell me they r shifting to elsewhere.. :lol: :lol: :lol:[/quote][/quote]

        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, πŸ™ 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. πŸ˜‰

                  Sharon Goh is my gal's FT in Gratitude, from what i know she was absent for the past 3 days and will only be back today, i'm not sure if some other teacher was in charge of Dane Audition, u may need to find out, ya?

                  Dance Audtion
                  When I asked my DD how is it, she said \"Good\" and she was eager to show me the steps. She also said the teacher commented that she is good. However, when the teacher asked her if she is interested in Dance, she answered \"NO\". Alamak! feel like banging my head to the wall!!! :stupid: :stupid: :stupid: Haiz. Her mind is all on Art. I will check with the teacher (Sharon Goh) if I am not wrong, whether she will be removed due to her response. 😞

                  Mental Sum Test.
                  icic. thanks for explaning it. πŸ™‚

                  Great that the teacher said your DD is a good dancer. Hope she gets selected. Ya, teacher-in-charge of dance club is Mrs. S. Goh. Guess no harm enquiring about your DD's status. Good luck.. :xedfingers:

                  [/quote]Oh..but I have already sent the email to her. My DD told me the Dance teacher was Ms Ben but I couldn't find her profile in the school website. hmmm...I hope Mrs Goh will reply me today.

                    Ms Ben is a dance instructor engaged by the sch. She's not a teacher of MCS thus her name will not be on the staff profile. Hope you get some good news from Mrs Goh soon. :xedfingers:

                      Funkymonkey, jesyeo, Tinkerbelle,

                      Thank you, I think she’s lucky being selected as she really likes to draw.
