見到大家陸續入到KCIS, 我都感到好開心!
crystalpui, 我從你身上睇到所有野天父都會為我地安排好, 我地唔需要擔心
我叫自己要平常心去對待
btw, 你知唔知今年結果係in到幾多號至full?

我都好開心kcis有offer

crystalpui,

KCIS校車安排, 我就有過痛苦經歷.  我係住西半山o既, KCIS提供o既校車雖然會到我o個頭, 但就成日都好遲, 每一日阿仔最起碼都要遲20分鐘, 我覺得好唔合理.  同學校反映, 又不得要領, 因為學校要就埋KCS學生.  我地當然覺得好唔合理, 但都無辦法.  最後我幫阿仔轉o左撘保母車, 服務好又準時, 又有人帶阿仔入到班房, 放學有人到班房接去保母車度.  同KCIS校車價錢差唔多, 又唔會遲到, 你可以考慮下.  舒太 9239 9340

我都好開心kcis有offer
因為kcis primary既學費好合理, 而我地供得亦會冇咁辛苦 (仲可以睇下有冇機會生多個)
swck我最buy就係個宗教, 其他既野對我來講都同kcis差唔多
而以我唔駛為左升小學而煩惱, 我最少呢2年唔駛咁緊張
亦唔駛另外搵人去補中文
所以我都勸服左我老公了

以家我要問下學校, 堅尼地城有冇校車到kcis
睇website就冇
同埋我想幫亞女轉am班
但今年9月就應該冇咩機會了

嘩幾日冇上嚟咁多進展...crystal, 我諗你依家可以諗既係:
1. 開心咁接受KCIS, 唔好再諗有幾鐘意swck
2. 讀SWCK, 讀完K 再轉 KCIS / local schools ( I remember you said you will considere local primary too?)
其實 KCIS 真係好抵讀, 當然響某d 地方(如campus, facilities, 又或者你所需要既religious education)就要trade off, 咁你都要有定心理準備, 唔係我估你打後幾年會成日諗番如果喺SWCK就點好點好咁就無謂...

My boy is in Reception class. The time slot for Chinese is 1pm-1:45pm. While the ability of two groups differ, the program itself does not have huge difference. But, teachers have higher expectations/treatment for the higher level group.

Is your kid  now in KG or Reception?  Mine is in KG.  My parents' session has been scheduled for tomorrow.  

I didn't know at all that there will be two abilty groups for Mandarin starting from P1.  That's definitely a very useful piece of information!

YES ANN0805
我地係基督教家庭
swck係我地既dream school

I strugged too when I switched my son from SWCK to KCIS.  We are Christian family too and we love SWCK so much.  We decided to let our son switch to KCIS as we are concerned about the uncertainty re. secondary school for ICA.  For certain that the school fee for ICA primary would sooner or later exceed $100 000 a year.  But that's quite inevitable given its need to fund the renovation of premises and continous school (in terms of both hardware and software development).  The reason for the lower school fee for KCIS (and no debenture) is also exactly because it is sharing campus with KCS.  While this is no doubt a good thing for parents in terms of financial, the downside with this is that you will find arrangements (e.g. use of facilities, school bus arrangements, etc.) for KCIS somewhat "secondary" to KCS mainstream.  And to be very frank, this is something that is quite dissatisfying from time to time from KCIS parents' perspective.  Having said that, I fully understand that this is kind of a trade-off.

10月唔會有個長假?
我見有d 會係10月有個 half term holiday 1 星期

I don't remember exactly, but Oct does not have 2weeks holiday. KCIS does not really follow school breaks for other IS. The major school breaks are Christmas, Chinese Lunar New Year and Easter. KCIS starts academic year in September versus August for many IS.

I met my son's class and Chinese teachers today, confirming that students will be stream into two classes/levels of different Mandarin ability. There will be two pieces of Chinese homeworks per week in P1.

我地係基督教家庭
swck係我地既dream school
但係上2個月
swck既小學ica供報左9月primary學費係hk$92,000一年後
我心入面就好唔平安
我好驚到我女個時要10萬
之後仲年年加
到中學都唔知點算
係呢個時候kcis打俾我話有offer俾我女 (佢本來係後備既後備)
同老公傾過後, 都係決定俾亞女入kcis
始終, kcis既學費係比較平

I didn't follow closely discussion here.  You are Christian family, right?  Seems that last time, you mentioned you may let your daughter to stay with SWCK.  So, you decided to let her switch to KCIS?

OH, you're right!  You remind me!  It seems that there was a one-week term break in Oct/Nov.  But the timing of KCIS' term break is a little bit different from other international schools.  What I recall is it's term break was a few days later than others'.
