Wishing all Marymount parents a very happy Chinese New Year!!! Huat ah!!!


IM v proud to say tat putting my gals in Marymount has been a great decision. It is a sch wif a heart. I have a fair share of trs which I din like, in case u tink IM in any case bias in my judgement.

E principal IMO is pretty gd. Every since she took over, i can c many changes. Fr e type of food sold in canteen to strong emphasis on a holistic education.

Last yr, my elder gal had v dedicated form tr (Mrs Lim) and MT tr (Mdm Yao). IM truly grateful for eir constant feedbk.

Last fri wen I met my P1 gal's form tr, we casually mentioned abt e awful bus driver and she really took note. Called me yday to get more details and VP called me tis AM to find out more too. Wif trs, VP and P being so concerned abt issues concerning our gals, I honestly believe my gals R in gd hands. It did cross my mind to trf my gals if opportunity arises. Due to PSLE stress, I will prefer a sch wif affiliated sec sch. Towards e end of last yr, i have changed my mind.

For parents whose 1st choice is not Marymount, I will urge u to gif tis sch a chance 2 c how our gals can blossom. Wif right communication and a willingness to work wif e sch, I believe our gals can thrive in this sch.

:rahrah: I applaud the school's effort for sustaining an active Parent Support in Marymount Convent School. :grphug:


However, after I opened the email which the school sent out, I cannot access the online survey. Then I discovered that if I copy the whole link and paste it onto a new page, I can access the form.

I am very pleased that Marymount Convent School has adopted Learnlogy.com (formerly known as Problemsums.com) for all pupils for the year 2014.


Learnlogy.com is a self-directed learning Mathematics website specially designed for Primary school pupils in Singapore. Created by a group of professional school teachers, there are 53 460 questions with detailed worked solutions. Step-by–step explanations for all the questions are closely adhered to the MOE syllabus using heuristics, models and diagrams. An on-line teacher, AVATAR, will read and explain all the questions and solutions.
The questions are grouped into practices and tests. With the auto-marking feature, pupils can master Mathematics skills at their own pace. Other exciting features include the 8pm Race, Halls of Fame, Homework Setter, Homework Schedule and Quiz Maker, etc.

In addition, http://www.lead.com.sg is another platform for parents to tap on for their children's e-learning.

Chinese 好朋友 was introduced to the P1 children too.

:thankyou: Marymount Convent School

Depending on the class teachers. Some \"VERY ON\" class teachers will assign, some don't. Anyway it is good practice for parents to guide their children the first time to navigate learnlogy.com or lead.com.sg
