If locaion is not an issue, which one will you choose?
Is St Mary's more "tradition" than Marymount? e.g. got more homwork, the teacher is more strict, etc
Please provide you insight!

Marymount is an English School, both Primary & Secondary section and students study E.Lit from Primary.

I would choose Marymount as it's an English primary school and the campus is nice.

St Mary's is also an English school. Very good at
academic results. Got a lot of As in HKCEE and HKAL.
And yes, the sisters and teachers are very strict. I
am a graduate of the primary and secondary school. I
love the school very much though I also find the rules
pretty tight. Active is ok but if your girl is 反叛 then
St Mary's might not be suitable for her.

Thank you meipo!
My girl is active but not naughty and very behav in school. Therefore, I am afraid she will loss her curiosity if the school is too strict
How do you compare with Marymounwith St. Mary
作者: 小豆媽 時間: 08-7-17 17:36
If location is not a problem, then ......
what you look for is very improtant
the "style' of St Mary & Marymount really different
in terms of academic, same same
girl's discipline, I THINK, same same
if....in terms of environment...sure Marymount --> very good
作者: Brother1234 時間: 08-7-17 17:38
This is my question. I do not worry about the discipline as my daughter is quite obident.

How about the teaching style difference between the 2 schools?
作者: mamimummy 時間: 08-7-17 22:04
兩間都係好學校，但Marymount的整體英語水平應比St. Mary高，尤其中學部較全面。小學部的英文程度就一定Marymount高好多，始終英文小學加E.Lit。
所以地區不成問題的話，我會選Marymount。
而且Marymount中學的女孩比較'活'，在HK Student Science Project Competition時，Marymount幾team人帶來的感覺都較自信、靈活，對於提問應答自如；St. Mary的女孩好乖，但就是...唔識點講...而且老師好緊張從旁睇住，少了點自信。雖然這只是少部份學生，但在於這種比賽而派出這類學生就似乎不太適合。這是我所見的感覺。

Academically St. Mary is yet a bit better than Marymount, most likely due to St. Mary's traditional and stricter educational style.

My daugther got 20 marks, but she could not get in St Mary last year (i.e. Nov 2007). In fact, I can say that the chance to get into St Mary with 20 marks is very low!! My wife heard that someone got 25 marks cannot get into there last year. If you have 20 marks and would like to choose Cathloic school , I really suggest you consider to choose the 2nd tier famous school like St Rose of Lima or St Paul Primary. Very likely your daugther can get into it at the first round with peace of mind. My daugther studied in St Rose Kingergarten, we did not choose St Rose Primary School at first round. Eventually she could not get into St Rose even we are in that zone. Our case gave us a lot of frustructions. But thank God eventually, we got an offer from HKUGA after the "lottery" result. My daughter will go there for P1 inthe coming Sept. She appears like the school so much even she has not started it. Hope she will enjoy it. Hope all the parents and kids participating the coming P1 selection game good luck. God bless you all.

讀緊小一,係舊年暑假叩的
作者: mamimummy 時間: 08-7-19 02:06
<請指教！>---唔好咁客氣，我只以我所知+個人主觀意見比你分析下。大家都係為個女！只是你揀小學，我揀中學罷了。
兩間我都有朋友女兒就讀，兩間都一定係上佳選擇。如果地區係考慮因素，要用這兩間做選擇﹔九龍區就St. Mary，香港區就Marymount吧。個人真係唔贊成小學生長途跋涉。
個人認為Marymount應該同Maryknoll比，英小+少少貴族feel。如果無記錯St. Mary以前都係英小，但後來才是中文小學。由於本人中學入了一間英中，一開學眼見來自英小的同學的英語對答能力，自已有幾辛苦先追得上，加上學語言越早越好的關係，所以如果可以我一定幫女兒選英小。
<出名的資料有好多，名人都好多>------通常我們多只以”官”去評定。
20分-----兩間都難入，我之前講那個case我自己都唔明點解會有咁ke情况出現。<瑪利曼全港島區唯一的津貼英小女校,灣仔區熱門之選>by Sindy,所以係好好好難入。但2nd round都係講運氣，有運三千抽一同三抽一冇分別。
<位置在那裡>----http://www.mps.edu.hk/
<中學成績是否都一樣好>----其實中學兩間都好，分別在於小學，所以我會將Marymount看高一線，因為Marymount英小加E.Lit，小學生不是全部可以升上中學的，較精英，所以理論上達標的小學生到左中學都應該做到以英文學英文，所以學習能力同氣氛比較”活”。而其餘 % 的外校生更要band 1 中的top band 1生才可有interview的機會。而且如果你比較他們的英文卷，你就會知兩間小學的分別。對唔住，個人只比較英文，因為英文底好才能應付自如，所以我只以大部分學生能力計算，不理小部分精英。雖然兩間都是好學校，但兩間學校的學習氣氛有點不同。
Sindy個女張相好似係Marymount，你可以向佢請教。

Dear Mamimummy
Thanks for you analysis!
1) When will Marymount start teaching English Lit? P1?
2) Where is your daughter studying? You seems to know a lot about the Primary school?
作者: mamimummy 時間: 08-7-19 14:57
1) from P.1 , 用Blue Reader. 講真讀E.Lit作用話大又得話細又得，但如果學得好，懂運用，作文點都著數，將來如果做律師亦大派用場。睇下生活圈子啦。
2) 因為我係嗰d會同朋友交換卷比個女做的媽咪，我反而好少買練習。因為要留意"行情"同個女部署，而我女學校成績較好的女生多會入Marymount同St. Paul Convent，但St. Paul Convent係直資會比津校早知結果，是關放棄左無得回頭，所以近２年入St.Paul Convent多左。可見Top學校之間的競爭真係好大，唔止學生辛苦，但入直資的話又要比多幾年
。而我女又想入St. Stephen's Girl' 多d，所以唔留意多d點得

你意思係咪想叩門入St. Mary要靠人事(重要係位高權重)嗎? 若將封叩門信由畢業於該中學的畢業生交比校長(由小學直升中七的), 咁會否機會高啲嗎?

MiuMiu2004 and Brother1234,
My daughter does not have any interview. She is lucky under the first round drawing (Nov).
We do not live in Wanchai as the first round admission is region independent. It only counts on how many marks you got.
My daughter goes to another school that have to pay the school fee.
I think Marymount Primary School is really a good school.
As I said, everyone would have different perspectives of their selection.
My consideration might not be applicable to the others.
However, there are some common factors such as:
- Travel time to/from school for kid
- % of Primary 6 student promote to Form 1
- External academic result of secondary school
- Peer group influence
- Financial support
- Policy of EDB
- Loading of homework
- Internal competition among students
- Character of the kid
The above factors are just random in sequence.
