Any comment on YEW CHUNG?

牛精仔

我同事2個仔都讀緊, 佢原本係諗住k2去apply cckg, 但2個小朋友都失敗左。宜家繼續讀緊, 同事嘅comment係, 學費真係好貴, 但兩個仔都讀得好開心, 2個都係主流班, 但好不幸地, 兩個都係中文完全跟唔到, 其中一個仲出現語言遲緩, 我估, 未必關學校事, 但我自己小朋友就冇apply。

咁有冇人而家的傳統小學是否喜歡收YC的學生呢？

請問大家講的是Somerset Road 定係 Kent Road的呢？兩間有乜唔同？
謝謝。

The campus at Kent Road is just for ITLP (playgroup) and year 2 class only.  For K1 or children at 3 years old or above, they will be moved to somerset road campus.

The tuition fee is at $5550 per month for 2 years old and k1 class, exclude school uniform and school bus.  They charge nothing extra basically.  I paid nothing more since my son join this school when he was 16 months old.

I believe most of the children attending YC for k1 would choose internation school as their first priority.  However, the school stress that their student can connect to those main stream school.  In fact, I believe the student from YC have no main difference with those from Victoria, HKBU Kinder, etc.  However, they are not comparable to those from SC & KV, while the teaching methods are so different.

Dear Chunyatmama,
Thanks for your reply.
How about the school fees of K2 & K3 (local stream)? Are you also targeting local school in Primary? 如果上傳統小學，會否需要額外報courses？例如之前有mami提過可能中文水平未夠等，傳統小學的銜接如何？懇請賜教！

I would like to know which primary schools they will go to after K.3 (other than Yew Chung Primary). Seems no such info they disclose to public.

I did not pay attention to their tuition fee for k2-k3.  I believe most of the children attended YC for k2-k3 will stay with their primary school.  In fact, YC's kinder and primary school are very good.  Yet, the secondary school is just so so.  It may be because most of the students will move to aboard to continue their study.

I will let my son to try the main stream school as I think his character is good fit to the existing system.  Thus, I will switch to KV next year for my son for k1.

YC 基本是一間超 Cap 水既幼稚園, 得個"貴"字, 又要比廿萬做 Deposit, 學術水平唔係十分標青, 同其他國際幼稚園差不多, 我都有朋友個仔讀緊, 佢都算係有錢人, 住九龍站物業, 但都覺得 YC 乜都講錢, 仲有 YC 太多香港人讀, 我個人覺得應該選一 D 多外國人讀的國際學校先好, 可以另個小朋友英文水平更好, 最重要係可識到多 D 外國朋友, 真正做到廣闊視野, 試想你讀間國際學校, 識 D 同學又大部份係香港人, 咁有乜意思呢, 所以有心讀國際學校未必要選佢.

Where you got this info? My son is studying in YC and he is not required to buy any debenture or put any deposit to the school.  Are you referring to other school or you just "hearsay"?

onchai

Ha ? "Deposit" for kindergarten, sorry I never heard it nor experienced before as my son studied there before.

From my own observation, YC is a not bad KG. They have low teachers to students ratio, and the Chinese & NETs are very experienced and caring (at least to my son's attended classes). One disadvantage found that they have less discipline (only my own subjective feeling) in comparison to my son's current KG.

本人覺得如果冇諗住讀國際小學及中學的話,可慳番 D $$ 去上興趣班. 因為就算讀任何名校各父母都會同小朋友出去上英文及國語的興趣班. 到時英普又拼命, 英劍. 另游水,畫畫,跳舞,唱歌, 琴棋書畫,樣樣都要比錢. 條數有排計. YC 學費都成1萬一個月.

Over $10,000 per month is for full day class.  Yet, the price include violin tutorial class wor.  My son is attending the half day class at $5,550 per month only.  For comparable standard school like Victoria, Enfil, etc.  YC is not "so expensive".  Apart from the monthly charges, I seldom pay for any other things, except for those for charity that you can have your choice to pay or not.  

Frankly, I like this school very much though I will let my son to attend KV next year.  The reason for my son to change is that I want my son to have more exposure to Chinese and I would like to let him join the main stream  primary school.
