你好!彥彥媽咪. I am you fans. This is the first time to ash question.
Please forgive me to ask your question in English, since I am quite slow to type Chinese, I have spent a week to read the whole topic. Hope I did not ask the stupid questions and waste your time to answer them again. I hope my son can study under a happy environment and not much pressure but with good attitude. Since I am living in Taikoo Shing and prefer一條龍既學校. My choice is 1) 蘇浙 2) 嶺 南.
Would you please comment the above schools? Do they have a lot of tests, exam and homework?Many thanks.
Welcome to our forum here...唔好意思, 早排彥媽較忙, 唔可以做到即日 answer 添...sorry.. 依家好d喇....so 即答...
Since I am living in Taikoo Shing and prefer一條龍既學校. My choice is 1) 蘇浙 2) 嶺 南.
==> 唔....嗱.......首先....一條龍 under gov't definition 係小學升中學而已, 同幼稚園無關, 所以 unless 你係選 DSS or private schools, otherwise "連埋幼稚園既一條龍" 係唔存在既 (under govt scheme)
==> 你講呢兩間, 以蘇浙較勝嶺南一籌, 一來佢辦學既 record 唔錯, 口碑有番咁上下, 二來早年佢仲搞埋"國際班", 以英語+普通話教學作賣點, 明走 international school 個d路線, 雖然價錢唔平 (同 IS 有得 fight) , 但畢竟係顯示佢有心想辦好間學校, so 先再 put more resources 既, 雖然我唔太 buy 響 KG 就要搞咁多種 languages, 但即使佢普通既 nursery class 亦唔錯
==> 嶺南係普通學校一間, 老實講, 比我揀得一條龍, 我唔係只係揀一間可以有直升中/小學就得既學校就算, 因為我都會睇我想唔想去讀佢間中學先得架嘛... if I dun like 間一條龍既中學, then why 要直升?...so if 唔係為直升, 咁做乜要讀佢間小學...??
==> 其實有時唔好貪一條龍唔駛考嚟考去呢個方便, 而忽略左本身間學校既程度, 學習呢d更重要既選校因素, 因為我成日都係個句..."入得到, 都要坐得暖個位, 同坐得開心"先算係成功, 因此, 直升唔係一個最主要 affect 到你 "坐得暖同坐得開心"既 factor...so match your kids with the school is far more important than whether that school 可以 provide 直升位俾你...
==> 見你問開一條龍....你個又係仔.....你應會諗埋 St Joseph 了 .. 俾我考, 我都一定考埋呢間, 佢有 KG, 雖然唔係直升小學 (都要抽籤), 但佢地 3rd round 多數會收番佢 KG D 小朋友, so 搏得過....而 St Joseph 應會在 2008 同佢中學結龍, 咁對小學小朋友就更好了 (依家係 8 班 P6 升 5 班 P1, so "西" 得好犀利), 結左龍就冇此問題了, 住得港島區, 又係仔, 冇理由唔考呢間傳統名校既....呵呵...
彥媽請問妳點睇1歲2個月大的小朋友返幼嬰班?
==>若費用唔高, 又有時間, 又反正小朋友都係 all day at home 對住個工人的話, 去下都無妨, 去呢d班唔好有太大期望, 因為得個歲幾, 行路都仲搖搖擺擺咁, 你期望佢想學到d乜...?? 返呢d學都係幫你"湊仔"為主, "教佢" 係 second la...so if you think you could also do this by yourself 就可以唔駛咁早返喇....
大埔教育學院匯豐幼兒發展中心的幼嬰班及幼兒班質素如何?
==>呢間響大埔都算係搶手既學校, 係教院 back up, 質素都有番咁上下既, 不過我會 suggest go for N1 only (2 yrs old class) instead of 幼嬰班...除非你真係冇人幫你睇仔...咁就冇計~~
Yes, totally agree with what you said.bubu can only take care of her but cannot teach her or stimulate her and both of us need to work so is it good to let the nurery to stimulate her through playing with different children?
my expectation is that let her play with other and stimulate her through playing. Sure I will play with her after my work at night but too bad if she stays at home without doing anything with bubu.
Also there are only 14 quote for N1and 12 children in 幼嬰班. The nursery said if I really want her to join N1, should start in 幼嬰班, if not, no place ga la!
the school fee is $5900 per month, no other charges. For N1 it is $4700 something.
Since I live in taipo village house, should need to take the BoBo van with bubu in the begining.
==>見你問開一條龍....你個又係仔.....你應會諗埋 St Joseph 了
Be honest. I did not think of St. Joseph, because I am just worry 呢間傳統名校 must have many homework to do and its syllabus is quite hard. Do you think so?
Would you please give me some more advises for the primary school picking.
I pick 蘇浙幼稚園, just because of 一條龍, in case my son academic or performance is ok, we can change to a better primary / high school, if not we still have a back up (蘇浙小學 and 蘇浙中學), and my husband believe that language is the most important thing to learn. We heard that 蘇浙 is quite good in teaching the Mandarin and English. Please correct me if my concept is wrong since I know nothing about the HK education.
所以才孤注一擲而已
==>又唔好講得咁誇張, 依家bb先得個1 歲未夠, 幾時擔心到老呀..阿公d野, 今日係 A 都可以聽日係 B 架, plan 係要 plan 不過太遠d野真係未諗到住既...唔好咁快就自己嚇自己先得架....等我話埋過你知, if 真係黑過墨斗, 乜好野都派唔到, 只要有"恆心", 仲有好多機會既....呢d野到時你真係要到先再問啦....
見你 say "you know nothing about the HK education" Before I give you any advice, may I know 你有冇乖乖地睇哂"精華區"樹我 post 個d 野先....你要睇哂先就會有好多問題唔駛問架喇...
另....答你另一d...
just because of 一條龍, in case my son academic or performance is ok, we can change to a better primary / high school,
==>我成日都講....呢個世界每樣野都有得有失, 一條龍辦學係有好有唔好.. (遲d我會再響精華區講) , 但, 簡而言之, 一間學校有得俾你直升, 佢就會預左d學生係直升上去, 唔會諗你想"更想一層樓" 考間好d既, 因此, 尤其係幼稚園, 佢地知你會上佢小學, 所以一般係唔會教得好多, 因為佢地個 syllabus 係自己話事, 你又唔駛同人響出面搏考學校, so 根本唔駛谷個學生, so 當然你可以話"咁咪好囉, 阿仔讀得冇咁辛苦", 但你亦可以反個角度去睇, 即係佢地教既野可以好"自成一角", 因為唔駛去競爭嘛, 因為出去想考d再勁d既學校就又未必得易啦.....
I have read 精華區, and try to digest. But sometimes I still may confuse. I am sorry if I have asked any stupid question.
After read your message, I am so 15/16. Because I don't want to give so much pressure to my son in studying; however, you also have a very good point."有時有d壓力對小朋友唔係一件壞事, 一條龍既 potential 壞處係, 讀成點都可以直升 (因為留班位唔會多), so 佢地對讀書亦未必著緊, 會認為"反正讀成點都升到班", 因而大家 (阿媽同仔) 都冇左個種上進既動力..."
唉! This is so difficult to be a parent. Sooooo headache.
