I just have time to meet with the students and staff of Primary and secondary sections. I will go to KG tomorrow.
This morning when I told the assembly of the secondary section that the School will not teach National Education as a subject, the whole school hall resounded with applause. I am proud of my girls that even though they are not always vocal, they follow what is happening in the society and do have a sense of right judgement.
We have a good new P1 Orientation Day. As in the past, several students did not turn up and the school has to call them. Some had forgotten, some had changed to other schools. I hope parents can be more responsible and act as role models for their children.
Everyone is free to join and not join Good Hope, but think of the other candidates on the waiting list. By holding up places up to the last minute, they are depriving others from coming to school on time for the parents meeting. I appeal to all to be considerate and think not only of themselves.
My joy on the first day of school was dampened when a student did not turn up and we have to call the parents. The mother said, "the girl is now at another school and we would like to see which school will fit her more... And you give me a few days to think about it?" I instantly told her that this is really selfishness. Can you imagine what will become of the girl? I told her that if the girl does not turn up tomorrow, she will lose her place. Sigh... What kind of a parent !
It just came to my notice that someone is asking in "Education Kingdom" if a child need to attend a lot of interest classes in order to get into Good Hope Primary 1. I really want to tell the person that those are not important at all. Can someone be kind enough to answer that person for me?
唔係Yorx... 我覺得Yorx都算係出名既幼稚園,至少出名貴(Just kidding...)
You mean lots of change in GH? Change of headmistress? Change of interview format?
For me, It's all new. So, nothing change at all...
Wish you also find the most suitable school!
