Hi,


Finally received the booklist today....

Just to share with P1 (2012) parents, there'll be no sale of textbooks on Orientation day.

If you don't receive your booklist on Saturday, don't fret....you can access it online on http://www.pacificbookstores.com from 24 Nov 2011 onwards. You can pre-order online and pick up at Marymount Sch at a later date or arrange for delivery (delivery charge of $7.80 applies).

Alternatively, there's walk-in sale of textbooks at MCS. This is staggered over different days for different levels.
For P1 textbooks....walk-in sale is on 28 Nov (Mon) from 9am - 3pm.

Or there's walk-in sale for all levels on:
6/12 (Tues)
7/12 (Wed)
14/11 (Fri)
15/12 (Tues)
16/12 ( Wed)
27/12 (Tues)
28/12 (Wed)
29/12 (Thurs)

The sch bookshop will not be open during the holidays, other than the above stated dates. Hope this helps.

Thank You Tinkerbelle.. this is very useful..

Can we order the MCS exercise books and school socks from Pacific as well? How do we know what sizes of plastic covers to buy for the different books?

Hi tuteee,

Sorry, I'm not sure what is the exact cost of textbooks for P1 this yr but just to give you a rough idea, you are looking at approx. $100 for the complusory items.

This cost does not include the cost for optional items (roughly $40) for art materials, art bag, textbook & exercise book covers etc. All Catholic students must also buy a textbook & a bible (which costs $24.90) for Catholic Values Education. So if you are buying optional items as well, the maximum cost for textbooks & stationery for P1 will be $150.

Cost of PE shirt ranges from $6.50 to $8.50 depending on size; PE shorts are from $6 - $7.50, pinafore ranges from $17.50 - $25.50

Hi phoenix,
Yes, you can order MCS exercise books from the Pacific Bookstores website but MCS socks are only available from the uniform shop ($3/pair).

As for textbook plastic covers, they come pre-packed in a set (about $6)in the right sizes for all your textbooks...very convenient. You just need to match the sizes & wrap. Exercise book covers come in a set of 10 for $2.

Thanks Tinkerbelle for that info!


If Catholic students have a to buy a Bible and textbook, what about non-Catholic students? They do social studies?
