JonC:
I was quoted this evening for $195 for 2 ways from Sembawang to Marymount and back for next year 2014 bus transport rate.
Your DD P1?lala81:
I'm not sure about yours but mine will pickup from my blk. Charges for Sembawang is $185. I didn't let my child take school bus cos not worth. Drive her to school instead.
My DD in MCS, she takes the school bus (van) and we stay Sembawang too.
Quite surprise many here have child going to MCS which is considered quite far.

Where's the holding sch
If I'm not wrong, it will be at the former First Toa Payoh Primary School from Jan 2015 to Dec 2016. -
Former first tpy means at Tpy lorong 8 there?
Can parents advice, if study in Pm session, by the time they come home
Shower dinner got time to do Hw n revise meh?
Even if wake up early next day say 9am, also quite rush isn’t it. -
ryes:
No, it's at TPY Lor 1, the current holding school for CHIJ Toa Payoh.oFormer first tpy means at Tpy lorong 8 there?

I also agree that time utilisation for pm session is not very efficient. When my DS was in the pm session, after shower and dinner, he usually does HW and revision till about 9 to 10pm.
On the other hand, it is good for kids who are not early risers. I dread the thought that I have to wake DD up at 6am next year should she be in am session. -
Publica so Marymount has pm session for p1 n 2 only?
The rest is am session?
Tpy lor 1, the one nearby Philips office?
I think it’s going to be difficult to manage for pm.
My kids currently goes for enrichment class weekdays afternoon.
If she studies pm then means have to forego that day enrichment to night time.
Undecided. -

Admin could not confirm if P2 (2015) will be in pm session. It is on the other side of Braddell View near Braddell MRT.Publica so Marymount has pm session for p1 n 2 only?

Yes, I agree that it is difficult to arrange enrichment on weekdays for pm session, unless the class can be arranged in the morning or later at night.
Continue to monitor the vacancies till the third day before you make your decision. All the best! -
My child will have to give up weekdays early evening enrichment of piano and ballet too if she goes to Marymount Convent School. My main concern is she must have sufficient sleep and she is a late riser and the afternoon schedule is fine for daughters who tend to sleep late at night and wake up late in the mornings. Enrichment can always be re-arranged again on weekends. I can conclude Marymount Convent School offers a holistic programme after visiting various school websites last night.
Can consider this school if your child is not an early riser and tends to sleep late at night. More family bonding time at night and more time to do revision at night. -
I went to the school for a guided tour back in May and the admin there could not confirm if moving to TPY will take place. My heart has been set on MC since it is near ds’ school, however, we have to painfully give it up as it does not provide transport to our area!
Really like the school alot and the girls seem well behave too. Good luck parents!! -
Yes, I have a niece in Marymount Convent and my SIL has nothing but praises for the school. She was transferred in this year from a popular school in Sembawang due to their move to TPY. She feedback that the teachers are very supportive, nuturing and the communication channel is very open. She likes the modular CCA which is incoporated into school curriculum. She enrolled her younger girl in CHIJ TPY. Being single session, the girl faces problem waking up in the morning and hence affects her learning.
Her advice to me is if child is not an early riser, it’s better to go for pm session so the transition into P1 is easier.
All the best to all parents in 2C.
