"Marymount Convent School is a fun and interesting place to learn in. There are some kind and strict teachers. The school is HUGE! Although, the school's toilet's are very dirty. Some students have to hold their pee until they get home."

"The school is vibrant and lively.I enjoy learning there.They have good facilities and nice food 👍 .I play Badminton every time at the netball court. I enjoy eating my daily mushroom spaghetti.But I alternate to different foods every now and then. But, the bad thing 😞 was the toilet 🚽.It is very dirty 😷 even with cleaning 🧼.The cleaners do a job well done though.Ita usually the students.Nevertheless,I am still grateful. The principal gives speeches about keeping the school clean which I find helpful.I definitely,absolutely love and recommend this school."

"I hate it here. There was a P6 sale and they just cancelled it. Like what? I was looking forward for it since p1! Not only that, the toilets smell horrible and there was poop left it the toilet bowl🤮If you plan on coming here, DON'T. Trust me. Please don't. I beg you. My life turned into a nightmare bc of this. And the principal🤬🤬I'm only helping you"

"The receptionist in this school is rude and unhelpful. Once me and my sister were late for school and we had to write in a form. My sister asked what time it was and the receptionist told her to look at the clock. My sister had trouble reading the clock and asked me to read it instead. I accidentally read the clock wrongly and she said something along the lines of, " how can be 8am ? " She was rather rude and unhelpful. One time, my auntie went to the general office to collect my sister's report book and others and when she did so, the receptionist was again unhelpful. My auntie told the receptionist that she was there to collect my sister's report book and others. The receptionist asked what class my sister was in next year. How is my auntie supposed to know what class she's in next year when she hasn't read her report book? Arent receptionists supposed to be helpful and kind? My last children's day was so disapponting. The principal mixed sports day and children's day together. I do not even like sports. I was so disappointed that day, I cried. My last children's day was the worst children's day? Back then, we used to have a sale where P6 would sell handmade or store-bought stuff to other levels. But when I was P6, they removed it. Why? I was looking forward to it since P1. They removed so many fun activities such as mcs got talent and others. I hope they fix this for the future P6s and other levels. I'm so glad I already left the school. ~ Ex student ( graduated in 2024 )"

"I have been in this school for 6 years and some teachers were super nice including the principal! A lot of CCA’s to choose from. One of the best to me is rythmic gymastics. All in all, it is the best school in my life🥳🥳🤸"
