Hi, anyone have statistic for Marymount Convent?

Vacancy for 2CS is 11.

I think can safely assume that the numbers on MOE website tonight to reflect SC < 1km.

Think within 1km - 2km will be out of chance.

Sorry, rantings ahead, flame me for all I care. I do not understand lor! Now I came to hate the new internet of things! Lady luck has nothing to do with binary digits and coding. Didn’t we used to know the result pronto, on the day itself, at the school itself??? You get it done and over with on the day. Change is good but not when countless sleepless nights are sacrifice! 2nd to 21 Aug (almost 3 weeks). Now it left parents scurrying all over Singapore island to find a spot for their child. What is the use of a 1km or 2km distance priority when you can’t even get a spot at <1km? Why can’t we just fill in 5 choices and let computer luck does what it does best rather than having sleepless nights and hanging by a thread. IMH is going to be oversubscribed soon with worrying parents and children who aren’t sleeping enough due to long travelling distance for schooling.

I totally echo your sentiments.....i've been worrying from 31 JUL (2nd night of phase 2C) until now...and has to continue to worry until 21 AUG for 2CS. Sleepless night and lost appetite....all for the simple quest of securing a school <1km for my son. Boohoo.

And it doesnt help to settle my nerve that i called the school earlier and is left with 4 vacanies only...i still have 1.5 days more to count down. OMG.

生生生，我关门大吉了! So upsetting!!! First, stay at home moms are encourage to go back to work, then I have to waitlist for preschool just to get my child in any so I can work. Next the ‘pink tax’, helper’s levy increment. Now the primary school, then the school bus and after school care waitlist, then the horror when all the dragon babies stepped into workforce. Oh my Lord, one whole lifetime of worries.

Don't worry Bedshat, we are all parents with dragon year babies and we will face the same problem so just remb you are not alone (if it helps)! For now, we just have to get past this damn primary school registration. Other issues, come what may! hahaha

Wish us good luck.
