作者: Geni 時間: 09-6-25 18:06

你個小朋友係男仔定女仔? 你住o係邊區?

作者: mgwong 時間: 09-6-25 18:29

Boy. HK side.
But he has a sisiter will apply P.1 this year.

作者: mgwong 時間: 09-6-25 18:33

Hi Geni,
I really like the teaching method of St. Margaret(but as you know it's a quite new school). and 高主教 is a quite famous and tranditional school. please help caused their register date are the same 4/7. wakakaka

作者: Geni 時間: 09-6-25 18:34

如果係男仔, 咁兩間學校都ok, 但如果你想妹妹同哥哥讀同一間學校, 我就覺得st. margaret 好d, 因為我覺得做男校女生唔係幾好!

之不過交通會唔會都係要考慮o既問題? 日日一早過海番學都幾辛苦o個喎~~

作者: mgwong 時間: 09-6-25 18:47

Thanks for yr reply

For 高主教 - school bus time 6:45am (1人辛苦)
st. margaret - No school bus 7:00am -118P direct to school (2人辛苦)
If the school is good, it's worth. Geni, how much u know st. margaret??

Just focus on which one is better or the boy.
If you find it difficult to choose between the two, that means they appear almost equally good to you. Then if I were you, I would choose the one more convenient in location.
For your daughter's path, just desregard it. There is no guarantee that she will be accepted SMC. Moreover, what if she is accepted DGS? You never know.

作者: ononprincess 時間: 09-6-25 22:21

agree, location and also the secondary school (school net should be the main concern).

I personally, rather agreed w/ G-ma coz my son is also studying in SMC p.1 and going on to p.2 after summer holiday.

Honestly, SMC still has room for further improvement when comparing with traditional schools. However, their new teaching method and style quite encourage students to read by themselves, to search info by themselves and to do home assignment / class projects by themselves. It's a good training for students.

Moreover, I believe once kids are proficiency in languages (Eng & Chi & Putonghau), then they would be much easily to pick up and learn other subjects like Hist, Econ, Eng Lit, Chi Lit...etc

So....

Anyway, just my own views to share with all concerned parties.

想再回應多一點，就係學習ge 路程好漫長，我個人就唔想一起步就谷到d小朋友怕左返學、怕左睇書、怕左做功課！我只希望我囝囝可以enjoy school life 同埋享受學習ge 過程。識得learning to learn 先至可以持久同埋可以應用係將來工作。

Don't worry too much.

At the begining, I never expect my son have reading habit but just wish he enjoy school life and learn more other languages like Japanese, French & Spanish in smc.

However, as smc provided a series of reading report / program for students to do. As result, my son build up reading habit. It's really a BONUS.

Currently, he always request to library to borrow books for him to read at home...haaa...it's a rather good method to kill time...not bad!

smc前身係傳統女校, 所以校長及部份老師, 職員都有多年辦學經驗, 所以唔算太混亂. 當然係前期入學, 家長學生都要適應一陣子, 但整體算ok.

Totally agree! I think our kids should be trained to be independent and enjoy going to school.

Hi mgwong,

My son is going to study at SMC for P1 2009/2010. I live in Kennedy Town. I am planning to accompany him to school by myself and then go to work (my office is at Lai Chi Kok) if it is easy to catch a taxi to leave after sending him to school. Otherwise, my maid will be the one who bring him to and from school (though I don't want her to spend so many hours on travelling every day).

我個仔咁啱又係高主教同 smc, 亞仔自己決定揀smc。

我同意亞仔嘅決定, 除咗因為佢對語言有興趣, 相信可以夾到 smc 外, 最主要係响 bk 見到 d 家長都好主動分享, 同埋大部分對學校嘅 comment 都好正面。信心呢樣嘢可以好簡單, words of mouth 就好足夠, 唔一定要數據。

反正以後幾十年嘅路都唔到我哋做父母嚟安排, 兩間都係好學校, 不如聽吓小朋友自己嘅睇法呀。

Hi mgwong,

You're welcomed.

I forfeited the seat of St. Peter Primary School which is a top government primary school in my district (I am the old student of this school. I would have gotten a seat if I applied this school).

I shared the same view with DaddyShum. Most SMC's parents are friendly and helpful. They bolster my confidence on SMC.

Any one could share the discipline of students in SMC or in RC? Are there many naughty students? I found that children learn quickly from the peers, especially naughty things.

作者: chunheimama 時間: 09-6-28 09:40

首先兩間學校高低我吾清楚。

但我自已會揀高主教, 因我舊同事的仔在此讀得很開心, 她說他從來沒有去補習, 但我見他英文幾好。假期都可以週圍去, 不用死讀書。

而高主教的升中網超靚, , 對將來上大學比較有利。

hi gate gate,

其實我唔知點為之 "open"，尤其放在 "學生"而言。

我覺得smc 採取較 "free" 教學模式。所謂FREE 係指他們上課時會採用分組形式，把程度及語文基礎接近的學生編入同一 group ，係教學上就因應每 group 進度而有所不同。以我所知，其中一 group (p.1) 程度已追及其他小學p.2 程度，而其英文更趕上其他p.3 程度。

與其他 famous traditional schools 要學生正經八百座係課室，專心聆聽教師講書，smc反而encourage students to ask questions, to raise their ideas, to present some projects by themselves, to perform some puppet shows / other shows in front of class...etc。好多時 smc teachers would like communicate with studnets in TWO WAYS.

當然，課堂內基本規則都要學生遵守。好似初初開學時，我囝囝話我知上英文堂時，有2個同學仔用中文交談，個NET 即時用Eng 對住全班同學講話，上Eng Lesson 請用Eng交談及發問，並希望當老師講書時，大家keep silence 以免影響其他同學學習…之後同學就好自律用Eng ask questions and change & share ideas with others…

上中文堂時 (以普通話教授)，老師係教完課本後，必利用10-15分鐘同學生玩問答遊戲 (同樣要求學生用普通話答)，看看誰的分數最高…等等

唔否認，當中有幾個學生(p.1) 頗玩皮，因之前參加學校旅行時遇見過。但亦不得不承應他們腦筋轉數頗快，亦講得一口流利Eng & Putonghua。

講真句，現時小學生有幾多個唔玩皮，唔百厭？DBS 小學生都私自玩爬樹啦。咁樣係屬於 open, naughty, 定 free？？於本人而言，學生有少少百厭，我會接受到，尤其小學生，他們都只係幾歲人仔，當然基本規距他們要知亦要學習，但自律亦好重要。

其實每間學校都有其長處及弱點；而學生亦有品學兼優，更有懷份子，所以好多時，除靠學校老師之外，家庭父母影響都好深遠。

大家努力啦

Dear chapmanma & gate gate,

You're welcome

Just to share my own views to those concerned parents. Frankly, my view points may not 100% true.

To have full picture and understanding abt the school, I highly recommend parents try to attend the school briefing and also observe students during lunch hour / after school hour.

Wish parents could make good choice for their students.

Best wishes
