Hi all,


I have called e sch regarding the change in upgrading plans. Yes it has been confirmed on e holding site (1st Toa Payoh). However MCS can't confirm on when ey r gg single session as ey r not sure if the holding site has enough capacity. :scratchhead:

For parents wif kids in student care like myself, e student care can't b sure ey r moving together wif MCS to e holding site. :sad: E person in charge juz mentioned tat most likely ey will move whr e sch is. :nailbite:

These r some uncertainties which parents may wish to take note of.

hi thanks for the update. hope they give firmer details earlier than later.

Hi mummies!


My girl had also just gotten in to MCS. Feeling kinda lost and anxious as this is my elder girl and my first time dealing with a kid going to primary sch. Hope to find like-minded mummies here to share experience and find support. Just wondering if there’s a MCS parent support group or girls attending MCS staying in Bishan group?

Hi cantbearit2,

Thanks very much for the warm welcome and info re : holding school. Didn't know that the sch was planning to move...hopefully the new location won't be too inconvenient.

Hi emmanuel and ORANGEJUICE02,
I am in the same boat as you guys, also my first time in sending a child off to P1. Can relate to feeling lost and being excited at the same time! Hope to also share experiences and support with other like-minded mums

Just wanted to say a big \"Thank You\" to all you mummies and daddies in this forum for your positive comments and sharing with regards to the MCS school environment. :grphug: It played a big part in us deciding to enrol our DD1 in MCS - she will be starting P1 next year.


We were initially looking at SCGS (as we are <1 km away) and were torn between MCS and SCGS. Being Catholics, we wanted a Catholic school for DD1 and DD2. On the other hand, SCGS is so near our home. But with SCGS being so over-subscribed this year (even being SC doesn't help), it was a no-brainer to go with MCS, and I think we made the right choice. Had very good vibes when we were at the school for 2B registration, and we can see DD fitting in well in her new school.

If the civility and generosity present in this forum (so different from some of the other school forums) is an indication of the school environment, then we have definitely picked the right school! Looking forward to getting to know you all - thanks again! :hugs:

hi

i'm sure your kid would fit in very well and would be happy in mcs. for catholics, there is a wednesday bible class, not sure what they call it in school, \"pastoral care\"?, and my kid likes it better than her cathechism :).
