hi, thanks so much for the info! i really appreciate that
Hi ta2,
Wow, you're really planning ahead.
I guess it depends on what is your definition of 'strong' Catholic faith. MCS has catechism classes every wed. for Catholics. Most of the catechists are parent volunteers and some of them have been doing it for years. :salute: My DDs really enjoy their catechism lessons.
MCS has prayers in the morning during assembly
and the occasional mass for special events such as Foundress' Day, National Day etc. There's a chapel nearby for masses every Tuesday before sch starts if Catholic pupils are interested.
In line with the Catholic faith, MCS' school motto is' God is our LIGHT'. LIGHT is the acronym for our sch values - love, integrity, grace, happiness and trust. These values are frequently reiterated to the girls.
Is that somewhat similar to CHS (other than the sch motto and values)??? :D[/quote]

Hi Vivian,
:welcome: :rahrah: :welcome: :rahrah:
MCS has no affliated sec sch so most of the gals will choose schools in the Bishan, Toa Payoh & AMK areas. St. Nicks, CHIJ Toa Payoh, SCGS & St. Margarets are popular choices but bear in mind the gals will need to achieve the required cut-off point for the respective schools.
Alternatively, the gals will apply for direct school admisssion with their CCA, usually gymnastics, netball, tennis, dance and choir. You must excel in your CCA to apply and you would need to continue with that CCA in sec schools. RGS has accepted MCS gals with excellent gymnastic achievements.[/quote] -
