Montfort Junior
-
Hi Teddy-yorky, you may want to contact the school (Tel: +65 6510158) if you want to find out more on the P3 registration. Besides, the school is having open house on the
07 July, Sat and if you are in Singapore, please bring your son along to experience the life of a day as a Montfortian.
I have 2 sons in Montfort Junior School currently. As per what was shown in the video, the school encourages and welcomes parents to join in some of the school activities such as Racial Harmony, Learning journeys, oral exams etc. Teachers are responsible. The school is not just focusing on academic, but also the values. Discipline is strict. Boys are being taught to greet every teachers they see; even to parent volunteers!
As parents, we should understand and agree that there are bound to have a small % of bad eggs in every schools and this should not just happened in Montfort Junior School !

Iโm going for the open house on 7 July. Rather looking forward to it - got a confirmation email last week, and today, another email reconfirming things. Iโve no doubt my son will enjoy the open day.

Sorry, I've only seen this entry now. What did you think about the open house?
It was interesting to see the boys in a real classroom session - we went to the talks, so only observed the English and Art. My son loves it - he didn't want to leave - the Lego room and Butterfly garden really caught his attention.
The Principal gives me the impression that she is really trying to improve the academic standards of the school. I think considering that parents generally like to try for more 'elite' schools, what MJS is left with are those really wanting a much more holistic education rather than one which is purely result driven, not to say they won't support the child who is bright (at least from her presentation).
So yes, we will be applying for our son - MJS first choice. Age quod agis - what an empowering motto! -

We are definitely registering MJS this year for our DS. He loves the school especially the lego room (of course!) and the synthetic grass field and ALL BOYS. The school is huge. Boys will be boys. They love to play. So i do not want him to be academically good but strive in CCAs as well. We are above 2km n hope that he is selected (as I know MJS do not have balloting thou. hehe!)
ive been to many school tours n open houses & MJS caught my eye with the interior & moral values explained by the principal. We are non-catholic. I just love the mixture of races in the school and having known its a mini-international school. (how cool!)
Btw, which one is you during the principal talk? I was at the back and I suppose the vainty mom with high wedge. lol!!!! :roll: -
MadameMoiselle:
Have you registered yet? I've only been to a couple of other schools too, all nice, but Montfort is the one gave me a lasting impression. Which schools had you visited previously? We are Catholic, but my son is a foreigner, so will only qualify for Phase 3 unfortunately. Yes, I believe it is quite international, we asked the principal and she said a lot of filipinos, chinese, myanmar, mixed kids, so yes I do like the diversity, because learning styles will be very different and the school has to use different ways to teach.

Highly embarrassing moment!!
