哇，新校每月學費要4800

, 茶點每日自備，全年什費1XXX多，而且是英粵班，都不知如何決定，各媽咪有什麼意見？

Did they write that their price is "Not more than" $48,000 per year?

In that case, I think they won't "really" / "finally" charge $4,800 per month? They just want you to be prepared that this school is more expensive than the Kowloon Tong one, and when you receive the final number later you would feel better and therefore more willing to join the school? my guess only....

on top, we should also consider charges for school bus or 保母車 unless you live in Hung Hom. Apart from school bus or 保母車, there seems not much choice for public transport

Is it feasible to have a visit before making decision? It's fair to parents. If not, the parents would take the risk for this unclear arrangement.

For the expensive school fee, it seems that SC is testing the parents' feedback. The more the students, the less the school fee.

佢話要幾貴, 都會比個女讀SC, 因為只得佢有offer比我個女........

SC 快要變成YORK,大把學位,有錢就入到,其實都有好多家長BUY YORK,起碼間學校在KLN TONG,校舍又大又新,課程又深,但唔洗搶都入到,試想想幾年後到小朋友K3畢業,SC已經變得平平無奇,試問俾得起碼$4800一個月同入YORK又有什麼分別?反而KV就愈來愈難入,學位難求,愈是多人報又收得好小人的學校,就愈出眾. 如果今時今日有POST要SC VS KV,KM,YORK ETC, SC已經不是考慮之列,因為過多幾年後,他們的上P1的LIST一定會退步. 不過如果沒有更好的OFFER,SC都還算是"名校",只是物價上漲,大家量力而為,因為比起有學卷的是7,8倍的學費

I think sc is testing the water also but bear in mind its not an non-profit school, if the demand is there, why wouldnt they charge 48k or close to that?

作者: hosuper 時間: 11-5-16 14:50

Just rec'd the call from St Cat and they offered my kid a PM class and mentioned that there will be no school bus service for Hung Hom campus.

I just rejected the offer right away as it really has the logistic problem.

Hope ppl who are interested in this school may may receive this offer soon.

作者: twinsstar1 時間: 11-5-16 15:05

How do the school allocate students to the new and old campus???
Different fees in different campus?

作者: vc000 時間: 11-5-16 17:10

真係無校車服務？
咁我都唔想俾個女讀喇~我唔想讓個女去坐街車，感覺好唔安全又無保障。

作者: goodluck97 時間: 11-5-16 17:37

Difficult to take this offer except living in Hung Hom. SC should at least inform parents that they will have a new campus during application period last year.

Bad and rush on new campus arrangement, hope it's not consistent to her daily internal activity.

作者: vc000 時間: 11-5-16 17:57 標題: 回覆 15# goodluck97 的文章

真係如你所講，SC今次安排的好rush、好差！新校舍連見都無見過，得英粵班但係學費又貴過九龍塘、更加無校車服務，咁樣既安排叫家長點放心俾小朋友去讀？經過今次事件，對SC真係扣分唔少~

作者: newmommy 時間: 11-5-16 18:39

Just my comment: The arrangement seems so "un" St Catherine's style, because so far, my feeling in the last 2 years is that their admin is very clear, polite, and effective. This new campus ordeal sounds very secretive and strange to us current parents.

I am quite surprised to hear that they have no school bus at all.

And FYI, (I don't know the exact K1 fee next year), but I heard from the class teacher than on average the Hung Hom campus is $1000 more per month than Kowloon Tong. (Others parents, please verify). But to me, that is very very high, considering SC is also charging higher fees than other famous kindy.

作者: melodyc111 時間: 11-5-16 18:48

yes, it's quite high for the school fee.
at least, they hv to adv when apply, not now.
of course, at their view, you can choose not take the seat. bcs this is the extra seat.
frankly, little bit disappointed although they increase the class

作者: wwinnie 時間: 11-5-16 21:25

希望小朋友能打好英文基礎, SC 新校的pm英粵班( 學費貴+ 無校車)與九龍塘樂基中英文班, 如何選擇?
那一間英文程度較好?

作者: 比比媽咪 時間: 11-5-16 21:32

新校舍是否能在9月開到呢? 有點擔心

作者: joeyma 時間: 11-5-16 21:46

According to my experience，if K 1 charge $4800，K3 must pay $5800，and I guess the nanny bus may charge more than $1000，add together is $6800.

作者: 薯仔1607 時間: 11-5-17 00:22

我問過學校她們說今年9月可如期開學，及政府批了可約參觀新校。新校學校貴是因為新及設備亦有不同，所以學費較貴些，九龍塘學費是便宜一些的。

何時可以參觀新校舍? 是否真的沒有校車服務, 還是部份區域沒有?

作者: Agenda 時間: 11-5-17 11:10

我都收到電話, 佢話收我個女讀, 但又無校巴提供. 這, 令我感到非常煩惱

作者: goodluck97 時間: 11-5-17 11:55

Profit oriented ..... rather than ..... children oriented. Too bad!!

作者: karen55407 時間: 11-5-17 14:31

有多一間新校就好了！不過學費貴咗真是令部份人卻步！好彩呀女畢咗業！如果比得起錢嘅，我覺得是值得的！

作者: 719117 時間: 11-5-17 15:01

好貴

作者: sadsam 時間: 11-5-17 15:15

如果地點係起紅磡區，以HK$4,800既學費就唔值囉。

作者: melodyc111 時間: 11-5-17 15:17

yes, if it is locate in kowloon tong is worth but not hunghom although new decoration

作者: leeleelee1207 時間: 11-5-17 15:18

not worth...profit making school!!

作者: pandabonita 時間: 11-5-17 15:21

只是路過,咁k2係咪比返kln tong 價ga?

作者: linglingng 時間: 11-6-26 03:34

海濱南岸地址, 果度地貴嘛咁學費咪貴囉. 其實我想知九龍塘係咪都會有K1呢?

作者: angeemama 時間: 11-6-27 10:26

I am just passing by and very curious about this new campus. According to the school website, it said only pre-nursery in Harbour Place campus. Is this a new grade for SC student. My girl is going to upper class next year in SC and I have never heard of pre-nursery class before in Kowloon Tong. Any parents can tell me more about it?

作者: babyakambm 時間: 11-6-27 10:38

Yes, there will be a PN class (2-3yrs old) in Sept in the HH campus. The sch fee is even more expensive ... no more than $5800 x 11. God !!!

I know why no small B on the K1 waitinglist got the new campus offer la .... 'cos they send letters to those small B for the PN offer ..... what a good strategy !

作者: cherrybiz 時間: 11-6-27 15:08

完全同意﹗我個仔係2008年12月中出世，我地係apply英普班，但最後落左去waiting list，所以我地都打定輸數架啦﹗點知上個星期就收到SC既信，原來HH有新campus，佢話收我個仔黎緊九月讀pre-nursury喎.....變相做大仔。

佢地今次既安排實在太rush，學費又太貴 (HK$5800 per month)，仲要係Eng-Cantonese班....

阿仔宜家讀緊間幼稚園都已經交哂留位費﹑書簿費同校服費，我好難再考慮SC啦﹗

我個仔都係12月,都係收到呢封信話讀pre-nursury做大仔,
咁原本間學校可以30/6之前withdraw可以退返什費,我地只係買左個書包&一件外套,咁又唔係好傷.
但係$58,000 1年真係好貴呀,重要k1都係要留係HP campus冇得去KLT campus.所以e+都諗緊.

作者: newmommy 時間: 11-6-28 10:44

Frankly speaking, as an existing SC parent, I also find this arrangement (push the small-b to waitlist, and then give them Pre-N offer, and in such a rush manner), very.... $$ oriented.

This seems like the best way they can make $ using a great excuse. Wow, making extra $58,000 per year from each pre-N student, that is a much better way to make $ than increasing tuition!

Sorry, I think SC is a good school in terms of structured and transparency. However, this new campus' arrangement makes me feel that it is more and more becoming like York (York opens their pre-n these two years, relatively new). I am disappointed at how they arrange it, not thinking from the parents' perspectives, and thinking only from their side.

I know that as the founder Mrs C.L.Chan is retiring, a lot of things have been handing over to her daughter. But it seems like her daughter is very "strict" in a lot of ways and 無人情味, unlike her mom. (this description is from 3 different teachers I talked to). In the past I didn't understand what they meant since I am not an employee, right? Now, this year, from the way the new campus is arranged, causing parents to make difficult decisions, I now understand why these teachers say so.

The worst part is, when parents ask them "why open a new school in Hung Hom?", the teachers' official answer is, "there are too many siblings on the waitlist. So, to cater the needs of the siblings, we decide to open a new campus at Hung Hom". To me, I found this reason rather ... absurd. Makes me feel like they do this for charity!

作者: YCDad 時間: 11-7-11 11:40 標題: 十個月學費

如果收十個月學費，由九月計起，應該收到六月為止。

但是，最後的返學日子是七月十二日。我檢查我的自動轉賬紀錄，學校收取了 $3577。

一個月學費是$4237，半個月學費應該是$2119。

還有，校巴公司在七月份都有自動轉賬車費$442.5。一個月車費$885，返半個月學收一半車費，即是$442.5，合理。

問題：
(1) 明明說收十個月學費，原來收超過十過月....
(2) 七月份要上堂，所以要收學費，合理。但是，上半個月堂為何要收多個半個月的學費？

不知道我有沒有什麼誤會，請各位St.Catherine 家長指教。

作者: YCDad 時間: 11-7-11 11:58

以下資訊不知道是否正確.......

基督堂幼稚園收十個月學費，每個月$4200，平過St.Catherine，但是，學費包括其他出外參觀費用，例如海洋公園入場費。

St.Catherine是要自費的。這一點是千真萬確的。
