St Paul's Convent (Primary Section) in 2008/2009!

erikalo,
The school set the minimum requirement at 60 marks for Chinese. This is also for Eng and Maths.
The Chinese textbook is common as other primary, but mainly study exercise provided from school. Suggest you to buy some exercises and mock exam exercises for support.

The lang during recess for P1 students are mainly in Chinese.  

Regards,

我想問下有關spc 既中文問題

spc 一向都比人覺得英文很好, 中文就一般, 我想問校方其實對中文課有無要求架, 定係全校都係以英文為主呢

仲有佢地是否全日在校都以英文為主架, 小朋友在操場時, 可唔可以講 ...

Thanks all for the valuable information.

However, I am quite disappointed regarding the welcome day on 26th Aug, just one and a half hour, so not much things could be introduced by the school!!!

Since the Music and the Speech Festival registration will be announced by subject teachers, so Music and Chinese would be in  Cantonese, English would be in English and PTH would be in PTH.

Dear Andyrain and other,

Hi, christineyan

Ching Kung didn't call for the Magic Eng and I still could not get it today from Ling Kee.  Will call Ching Kung for checking the stock tomorrow.  Thanks for your warm remider.

FYI:  Have you all got the uniforms already? I got them from 2 shops and both my husband and I found that the quality from the shop next to their school is better than Joseph.  I think the colour of the uniform from Joseph is too dark and the cloth is not soft enough so not too comfortable.  I got 4 sets from Joseph and I brought two sets to exchange for winter uniform as I prefer the one I bought from the next shop more.   Besides, the P.E. pants I exchanged today from Joseph is better, the cloth is not linen, so more comfortable than the one I bought from school (Joseph) on the registration day.

Dear Andy Rain,

Please try to check with Jing Kung again but I have made the reservation for the full set on 10 Jul.  You may need to queue for the Magical english after the reservation completed.  Remember to buy the book cover which is not expensive and good.

I brought the Uniform already and I got it from the neighbour stores from School.  I just brought 2 sets only and 1 set of PE uniform.  

Keep In touch!!

I am sweating after today's orientation because my girl is not that independent and I need to train her double hard by now!  God Bless!

However, I found the school quite strict which we prefer.  I like it!!

係呀，請大家多多指教！

1) VA- normally its pastel and colour pencils, desk mat, wet tissue and apron.  The teacher will tell you what to bring in the first lesson. You may need to prepare scissors and glue.  The requirements may differ from class to class. There may also be additional material required in different VA lessons. So make sure you remind your daughter to write clearly and listen carefully.

2.Reading report- need to bring during reading class. They have different English sheet for English and Chinese sheet for Chinese class.  The teacher will brief the kids during lessons.  Books that kids read both at home and school can be added to the sheet.  You can get additional sheet from teacher or photocopy for use.  Again, ask you kid to pay attention to when she needs to bring the sheet for teacher's checking.  Different teacher may have different practice.  Most of them will ask the student to prepare a Reading folder (like a big plastic envelope or zip bag) to put all reading book and sheets inside.  Separate bags for Chinese and English Reading Class.

3. Award - yes, I think it starts from Sep because before that, you are not her student!  And keep an eye on the competitions in school.  They have many interclass competitions. Such as singing, dancing, writing,  sports day and math speed test etc.  Even if the whole class participates in the competition, you can still get the score.

jazzmama,

Your daughter can fill in the books that she read both in school (during Reading Class) and at home.  The sheet is used to encourage the kid to read more.  After a certain time, the Reading Class teacher will ask the kid to bring it back to school for her to check.  So it is nothing very rigid. No need to worry.

My younger girl is going to P1 in Sep08 also.

Regarding the school bag,  we use Lego.  For my elder daughters, she is studying in P.3, we use "Seven", it really light but expensive, ~$900.
