Hi, niklaus,
Thank you for your advice.
Yes. You are right. It may have spent 3 years $$ can save 6 years! This is my meaning that I can have one more choice to choose gov’t school or DSS school. It may be my expression not good to make you think like an equation. Thank you so much.
Would you mind to open it what your son choice of primary school? (when you decided) How about Sim? What you decide for your son?

Hi Lamfanny & Nik,

我都有睇佢個視學報告，而我亦都有就視學報告問校長，校長話依份已經唔update 的啦，因為個份係佢地未改革之前。其實有學卷一定會受制於政府，唔可以全部教英文同普通話。所以我都係諗住in 完再決定，因為我囝囝而家覺得英文係佢mother tougue, 而廣東話，就係佢鍾意講既時侯先講，所以如果佢轉去學卷學校，佢同學仔同老師大部份時間都係講廣東話的時候，佢都會用番廣東話。但我又好鍾意st joesph 既環境，可以比佢接觸大自然。如果英藝的話應該冇咁既機會。haha真係好麻！

另外，直資同政府小學，我比較支持直資，因為直資可以一條龍，唔駛去到小六時又再諗中一派去邊; 直資有的自主權，可以訂立比較有彈性既教學方案，多d思考活動，(因為我老公成日話依家d小朋友完全唔識思考)，功課適中; 直資通常會學多種語言，我覺得很不錯。政府都有好學校，但太著重學術，日日都有6、7樣功課，我同事個仔入左靈愛，學校叫一個小一生要買pass paper 日日做，我覺得好慘law。

Hi Sim,

現在的小朋友，寫都係好差，因為佢地只會做但唔太識運用，佢地可以做 fill in the blank 是 correct ，但要佢地作文時就錯漏百出。以前填鴨式，d人writing skill 都ok，但而家又話要活動式，但又做得唔好，變到唔湯唔水，個教育制度真係可悲！！

小一生就要做pass paper? 天呀! 太恐怖啦! 但是, 有d直資的小學未必銜接中學, 範圍又縮窄了, 可能要去到好遠啊!
沒辦法, 生活在香港, 一直都受壓力的嘛! 我諗政府也想為我們小朋友攞脫這個宿命, 無奈, 我們的文化未能一下子便配合. (阿Q精神的這樣想法)

我都覺得選萊茵/英藝, 是不介意比多d錢無非希望小朋友打好d英文底子, 日後無論選直資/私立或津貼學校都 flexible d.
嘩!啱啱都是討論選k1, 講講下link到講p1, 唔好嚇我啦! 其實囡囡咁細個, 她是否讀書才料, 她的潛能在那方面我都還是發掘中. 既然選小學會關乎她之後12年的學習生涯, 可唔可以比多d時間我, 讓我了解她多d才幫她選擇啊 (我都唔知應該對住邊個講).
Anyway, 我應該只會考慮萊茵或英藝. 我是working mammy, 要靠奶奶幫手照顧小朋友, 不在元朗讀書萬一打風落雨冇校車就麻煩...

lovelyfrog,
SJ's evnironment is good but beware of the mosquito lah. I also thought the same as you before that 'through train' is good then I dont need to trouble again 6 years later, but now I totally change my mind, except you enter to a very good through train like DBS+DBSPD, otherwise, there is no pressure for the primary to do the best to keep up a good academic result for the kids, for DSS like PLKCTSL, they dont have linked secondary but their graduates will go La Salle, DBS, Wa Yan. But it's my thinking only, different parents will have different choice on this.

Hi, Chongmama,
我們只是輕描淡寫的略帶點選擇小學的心得.
是否讀書料子, 真的不是這麼快便知道. 小學成績好又不得於中學成績也好(我便是此列當中) 相反, 到了中學成績才好的,也有很多例子.
我也先考慮此2校, 亦考慮上k1時,會搭校車了. 因為, 打風落雨, 很多時要和人爭taxi, 非常狼狽亦危險.

Hi lamfanny & Chongmama,

係呀，小學都要做pass paper 我都覺得d小朋友好慘，不過政府叻既學校就係要咁做，如果你朋友跟到個進度都仲ok，跟唔到，真係會冇曬自信心！！ k1 應該只考慮英藝同聖約瑟。其實我地選k1時，都會諗之後會讀邊間學校，你比佢讀左3年國際班，佢英文底子好，speaking亦都好時，我相信你唔捨得比佢入番傳統學校，因為佢會受番d同學影響講番廣東話，英文慢慢會溶入番個地既進度，除非額外上其他堂。

Hi Nik,

我都明白你既意思，但對我嚟講，我唔希望囝囝太辛苦，有多d時間，搵佢自己既興趣。我讀個間英國學校都係直上的，壓力冇咁大，可以做自己鍾意既野，一樣可以讀得唔錯。當然一定要搵到一間好既一條龍比佢讀啦，如果佢小學好，中學差就冇意義luo。不過都係見步行步

Hi nik ma,

Yes, my son started to learn Cantonese when he was in K1. We never speak Cantonese to him be4 & he don't understand what his grandparents said. His grandparents needed to use PTH to speak with him. However, he can communicate well with his teachers, friends & relatives now. His accent is not so accurate but people understand what he said. SMC's v-principal also said "还差一点“. Luckily he doesn't have to study Cantonese in Pri.

So, have you finished SMC's 2nd interview?

Hi fanny,

Just like what nik ma told you. If you don't mind spending more $ for this 3 yrs to improve her English, it's ok. However, my thinking is the same as lovelyfrog. Language really need practise & have the opportunity to speak in order to improve. If your family speak English at home then it's alright otherwise you will waste that 3 yrs if your girl enter local Primary. And, your girl's Cantonese might not be as good as those people who study in local kinda. My friend told me that their Chinese are well taught.

You can start to search for info on Pri when your girl is in k2. However, many parents will start to let their kids attend courses when they were 3yr old. I started it when my boy was 4yrs. Some of my friends(HK) also let their kids attend courses even though they choose to go local school. The school I chose are all English school therefore my choice are not wide. I didn't apply for St. Paul, Ying Wah even they are famous school. I didn't apply for school that need over $3000+ for school fees. I did apply WKF(shatin) & Lutheran but they ae not my choice. Just to let my son practise the interview process.

事實上, 我家多數講廣東話多過英語. 老人家在嘛, 囡囡每天跟她們的時間多過我們. 而且, 我們(我+老公)溝通也不是以英語為主, 有時想對囡囡多說英語, 但好多時也很難nicam過來. 所以, 囡囡現在廣東話是叻過英語啊! 因為, 她有信心說廣東話嘛!
然而, 我們當然希望她能說得流利的英語! 所以, 嘗試送她去有英語環境的幼稚園. 我也不知道work or not? 希望, 有'奇蹟'啦!

Sim,
We finished smc's 2nd interview and hopefully will get the result this week. We have 20 points for a govt primary but acceptance will only be released by end of Nov, it will set a smooth path for the little son as the interview game will be even crazy for our 2007 kids. So it's not an easy decision to make if we have any DSS acceptance before Nov.

Fanny,
We also speak cantonese at home but my son need to communicate with my filipino maid in english. Dont expect they can speak very good english even they go zenith if english is not your family language, but it's sure that their english standard is much better than those in "other" kinda. Of course, try to have more reading time, reading is a good habit. You dont need to worry too early, yours are only 2, u will know more about her strength when she's about K2.

Lovelyfrog,
Dont rely too much on the assessment report by the edu bureau as the result may be subjective and the assessment was scheduled, the school can prepare for a show, go visit and ask comment from the current parents are more reliable, see there is no report for zenith and SL, parents still send their kids to, rite?!

BTW, how many of us will join the gathering? Seems only few of us in this forum

噚日，我囝囝比一位男同學打，佢背脊捐左。我打比miss lei，問kenneth上堂時有冇喊過，miss lei 話有，係我囝囝同一個男同學爭玩具的時候，miss lei 話一見到佢喊即刻問佢咩事，佢話同學仔打佢，miss lei 之後就同佢男同學講打人係唔啱，之後我囝囝好滿意就冇喊law，所以miss lei 以為佢冇受傷law。番到屋企我mummy幫佢沖涼就發現，冇左層skin，我mummy即刻問佢咩事，佢話同學打打，我地驚佢亂講再問多幾次，佢都好肯定，所以即刻向學校跟進。我囝囝防禦能力好差，比人打都唔試避，只會向打佢個個人講bb 話，應該係話人地打佢唔啱掛。我唯有教佢比人打時叫teacher and help
