My guess… PSG= Primary School Girls? How do you pre-order the books?

Thanks for the insight. Sorry for the ignorance. What is PSG? Also, you mentioned that for your dd’s year, you went earlier to pre-order the books. Did the school write to you to ask you to go before the orientation day?

Hi, can any parents share their experience about what to expect on orientation day? It’s my 1st time doing the P1 thing so I’m clueless. The acceptance letter only states when & what time to report but other than that, no other information is given.

Thank you For your welcome Ikiasu! Looking forward to more interaction with you.


Thank you too, nms1, for your advice with regards to their uniform. I’ll keep that in mind when I get DD her uniforms.

Anyway, I hve 2 queries, if it’s alright to ask…How does your DDs commute to school? And are the girls bog down with too much homework? Thanks again for your replies.

Hi. I noticed that this thread is rather quiet. I’ve successfully registered my DD in P1 next year (2013). I really hope to get to know more parents who have DDs in OLGC so that we can share ideas and experience.

Just to share my thoughts about why Marymount Convent has a low P1 intake… Marymount Convent was my 1st choice for DD long before the time came for P1 registration. Especially since she’s currently in Marymount Kindergarten but the oncoming construction of the NS highway made me think again and also that Marymount Convent does not have an affiliated Secondary school.

Thanks for reply. As you mentioned, OLGC has an affiliated sec sch. So, I’m wondering, what happens after PSLE for Marymount Convent girls? Will they have a very difficult time getting into a mission secondary school if their PSLE results are only average? I know from reading the forum from this site that most parents are very concerned about the schools academic performance and achievements. As much as I am interested to know that, I’m more inclined to know if a school has supportive, kind and patient teachers which my child would feel comfortable with and enjoy her education. Can any other parents from OLGC enlighten me?

Hi I am new to this forum. Can anyone tell me more about Marymount Convent and CHIJ Our Lady of Good Counsel (OLGC)?


I was a former student of OLGC so my DD can get into OLGC at Phase 2A(2) but her chances of getting into Marymount at Phase 2C may not be too low either so I can’t decide which of the 2 schools to register her in.

Any opinions/comments?
