Hi Woodymom,
Can u explain again what u don't like KM. U stated it is bec the campus is too big.  It seems it is not a drawback.  KM accept my gal for K1 but still 15/16.  Normally how many children within a class?
I had checked with KM but their answer is always different by different people. So, I feel concern.... Hope u can give me some advice. Tks!

Although the syllabus of KM is quite difficult, most of the students do enjoy their school life very much.  They love going to school a lot.  The training KM gives to students is good and adequate.  The only one thing I don;t like about KM is the campus. It is very big when compared with other KG.

Hi Woodymum,
Tks for yr valuable comment.  Actually my concerns is the teacher kind enough or not more than the level of English.  I believe their English level is almost the same as SC.  BY they way, would u mind to let me know how often the meeting between teacher and parents? Do they care the children growth and their development? Do they have the regular story time and circular the story book for reading at home with parents.  The school bus drives still not yet cfm they can arrange to pick and drop near my house or not.  So, it is also my concerns as well.  Sorry I have a lot of the questions and hope u can help me before I make up my mind. If u don't mind, pls let me know your email address because I am not quite familiar to use of this BK.  Sorry...

sorry, I have made a typing error. The campus is not really big, not "very big".  In my son's class, there are about 22 students.  Actually my son is very happy with his school life in KM and I am also very happy with the progress he has made so far.  But of course, if you compare the playground and school hall of KM with those of other KG, you may find them not very big.  However, the environment of KM is very clean  indeed.  

What do u want to know about KM? I hope I can answer some questions for u.

Hi Woodymum,
Sorry for my late reply.  Your information is very useful.  However, what is the meaning of "ECA"? Tks for yr sharing so far.

TszYingMama,

My son studies in am class, so the arrangements of Eng lessons may be different from that of int'l class.  

Every day, my son has Eng lesson for an hour. I know that they have storytime but not sure how frequent it is.   According to the handbook, I see that they have a reader for English.  Also, parents are expected to read at least one book with kids every week for the reading log.

Regarding the meeting between parents and teachers, there are 2 formal meetings after the assessments in a year.  However, every Sat when I take my son to KM for ECA, I do have a chat with the teachers.  Sometimes when my son makes any trouble or progress in school, they will discuss me.  I think they are very caring and love children very much. My son really likes and obeys his teachers.

Hi Woodymum,
Would u mind to tell us the details of the ECA on each Sat in school? Is it the education activity or like some music playgroup.

tszyingmama,
ECA = extra-curricular activities

Benkeung,
I still have not made up my mind. Maybe LS will be my first choice as we are Catholic.
