my bb will attend N1 next yr. the nursery school close by my home is quite good. they have KG classes too. However, it only has "whole day" class. Can you give some comment? whats the advantage and disadvantage of whole day class? what the usual time of the whole day class? thanks.

==> 又有 N class 又有 K class? 咁即係個d XXX 幼稚園暨幼兒園個種...?? Cos I wonder...因為 K class 多數唔會"只有" 全日, 反而係半日為主, 至多有d學校就搞埋全日班就d 家長需要而已...
whats the advantage and disadvantage of whole day class? some kids in KG will go to interest class like art/ ballet etc. if whole day school, that means no time to go and the future "profile" will not have much to say??
no, actually, i just worry if she would get too tired. or will she get sick easily if stayed in the school for too long. where do they sleep at school?? on a floor mat??
whats the advantage and disadvantage of whole day class?
==> My view here is: I guess this is not the adv or disadv of "whole day class" 既問題, 而係一個實際性既問題多d..即係....if 兩公婆要都要返公, 又冇工人 etc.... 咁唔返全日可以點...?? 學既野大家都差不多, 係 focus 唔多同而已, 我之前響精華篇已有講過 nursery 同 KG 既分別...so it's a matter of 選 N or K class, 因為個 system 就係咁, N 就係 normally whole day class, so 你 buy 佢個 syllabus 既就選 N, otherwise go for K ...係好既全日都俾佢讀架喇...唔好既半日我都唔會俾佢去...
if whole day school, that means no time to go and the future "profile" will not have much to say??
==> dun forget there are Sat/Suns, in fact most interest class 係星期六/日先開得成班喇...因為人人都係個兩日得閒d可以帶小朋友去參加, 而且有d家長又好想親自去睇小朋友學野架嘛..so 又會揀 Sat/Sun (e.g. swimming) 反而閒日你想報都未必有得你玩 (除非係d大路野喇...e.g Maths, English, ballet, etc)
no, actually, i just worry if she would get too tired
===> 你睇過我寫個 timetable 比你睇啦, 咁你話佢地唔係食就 zzz 會唔會好 tired 呢...?
where do they sleep at school??
==>佢地會響課室"行"床訓的...學校有床仔, 家長要按學校要求買被舖...
or will she get sick easily if stayed in the school for too long.
==> 呢點我響討論幼兒園 vs 幼稚園時已講過了..你去再睇睇啦, 凡事必有得有失, So it's up to you to choose only.
你對明我和啓思幼稚園有何看法?謝!
==> 明我情況同劍鳴 (Keen Mind) 好似, as far as I remember, 明我當日既賣點就係佢個校長以前又係d 名校小學校長 (唔記得邊間) 所以d家長"認為" 第日考小學萬一要叩起門上黎都有校長幫幫手, something like that. 創校日子較短, 所以唔係樣樣 system 都 smooth la..
啟思創校 N 年, 校監趙均鴻辦學同教育經驗豐富, 對幼兒需要好清楚, 故創辨以"活動教學"形式去教小朋友, 亦自設埋小學去銜接, 但因為佢既教學形式同一般傳統小學唔係太容易接合, 咁若你俾佢讀得啟思幼稚園, 就要考慮要直升埋佢小學既可行性了.

==>你說創校日子短,你是指九龍校吧?因為香港校創立於1977,比啟思正校還早。很多人說明我的課程深,是否在K3或更早時開始小學的課程?

==>ic, 印象中係九龍個間新d. Thanks for your correction here.
很多人說明我的課程深,是否在K3或更早時開始小學的課程?
==> 據有朋友小朋友讀過所得既 feedback而言 (the one in HK island), she also said 明我係深d....但咁 =/= "早d開始小學課程", cos 幼稚園 and 小學's syllabus are quite different...所謂"深"只係指更早培育小朋友有一定既 ability la (e.g. 寫, 默, etc), 想唔想咁就各家長見仁見智了
教學形式不同,但她的形式能否幫助學生學會學習?我想小朋友如果能對學習有興趣,會主動學習,便不怕面對不同的形式了!
==> 你呢種講法唔可以話唔岩, 只係我又想比一個參考你: 有家長話只要小朋友肯學習, then 入 band 1 同 band 3 小學都可以讀到書的了....你又同唔同意呢???...環境, 朋輩 etc 都響學習中佔有幾大既影響力, 咁即使個小朋友好想學習, 但當佢睇到個個小朋友識既野比佢多成截, 學校 recognise 既唔係"主動性", "好發問", 而係"考到幾高分"個時, 你估佢會唔會 be discouraged lei??
反正小朋友將來仍然要面對形式轉變的過程。
==> 我唔否定一定有人可以做到, 要做係冇話唔得既, 不過細路仔唔同大人, 大人響 meet changes 既能力 suppose 會比小孩為高既, 但話時話...我見好多大人都唔得架....一要佢轉 job role 都 feel very uncomfortable ga...so it's up to you to assess if your kid can afford it. 而且...當中係唔係每個人面對 changes 都可以"永不言敗" 定係 "打擊自信"又係一個 two sides of the coin la...即係好似有d人話 "掉個細路落水, 佢浸下浸下就可以學到唔怕水了", 但我亦見過有d例子係: 個細路從此之後怕水怕得不得了, 以後唔肯落水....so it's a matter of the kid's "質地" (personality) here....so if you choose to let him face different changes, pls make sure you are able to clear all obstacles that he may face throughout the change process, and got sufficient support and recognition (from family, peers, etc) to strength his confidence to go ahead.
另外她用活動形式,會否令小朋友過於自我中心
==> 呢點我睇唔到同活動教學有乜直接關係, 因為呢個 learning mode 如你上述所講, 係令小朋友主動求知的, 同埋當中有好多 team projects 做, 因此, 唔會 only him alone
只願所有人先解決他的需要。
==> yup.....e.g. 佢一想要乜..父母/工人/祖父母 etc 又即刻掉低手上既 job 就去 address his needs, 咁想佢學識留意人地 emotion (e.g. 人地都忙緊架嘛...etc) 都幾難了, 因為佢 learn 到 "if I want, I will get attended" so empathy 就自然更弱啦...
