YORK OR ST NIC 揀邊間?

sonyerica

就算同機構真的有咁大問題嗎??

charlotte2008

Except 管理層的作风和手法 , 學校的老師.員工.學生也很好 , 很多小學甚至老師也反映York的水平很好 , 如果本來心仪St Nic...但因知St Nic同York有關係唔鍾意嘅話 , 咁咪唔好讀lor.....無謂勉強....我又真係唔信York出嚟的學生或家長會受屈辱 , 他們更應振作加油....爭氣 !!

我睇Magazine , 都有唔少DJ / 藝員話揀都揀York比D仔女入讀 , 王XX和許XX個仔都畢业於York , 仲憑实力(尤其英文)考入新小拔 .

To All York系家長.......Add Oil. .....Support u !!

咁兩間kg which one is better???

charlotte2008

well.........都要睇小朋友性格.... St Nic 有用蒙特梭利法和教具 , 小朋友最好較有耐性 , 專注力 , 他們須从思考中學習.

其實無話边間好D , 睇你prefer小班定大班....或學費也是考慮的因素

Charlotte2008 我知你的小朋友入了stafford,恭喜.

我apply咗 York,SN,SC,TT& Creative.
現York offer AM主流,SN PM offer, SC&TT未知.Creative fail

我知York, SN是同一機構我覺得ok無影響..

我知York英文很出色但中,數就麻麻.
我知SN是小班學術編排也很平均.但我不太清楚中,英文及數是否也很出色.

Thanks

To sonyerica : Thx.
Also congrat. u with offers from York & St Nic.

Yes, St Nic should be quite average at all. And York is definitely strong in Eng... but as heard, also good in Maths.

Also, my sister's son was graduated from York 10 yrs ago. Apart from Eng, he has been very strong in Maths since Primary to secondary school..... gaining Maths awards.... last year, he was 1st in Maths at the whole form in DBS. But I also believe Maths 都要靠天資頭腦 , personally, I hate Maths.

For my gal's case, here is the summary :
(1) York (gave up local stream's offer as I was confident in getting Stafford's offer, honestly speaking)
(2) Stafford (will pay deposit soon)
(3) CPSKG (gave up offer)
(4) St. Nic (totally failed)
(5) St. Cat (result pending)
(6) Think (result pending but give up   anyway)
(7) Keen Mind (not yet interviewed)
(8) Good Hope (not yet interviewed)
(9) Soka & 浸幼 (won't attend interview)

唉!!無offer又驚有offer又煩,我真喺怕選錯.

charlotte2008

哈哈....你係咪唔想兩間都比deposit呀.... ?

如果你小朋友係耐性.思考型 , 可揀St Nic.
If not, York. 遲D可能有更好offer(e.g. St Cat)都未定 , 而家唔駛煩住啦 , in my mind, York & St Nic係同級數的學校 , 不過实有人object我....卡卡 !!

好彩阿女failed咗St Nic, 唔駛煩 , 不過佢唔係耐性.思考型 , St Nic都唔啱佢 , 當初報名 , for 細B一定要大包圍啊 !

charlotte 2008,

May i know why you gave up the CPSKG offer?

charlotte2008

I just prefer Stafford more... as I got its offer.

I dun intend to let my gal to promote to CPS (primary).... so i have to find a kinder training up my gal to fight for primary seats.

Also, CPSKG is activity-approach and my friend (being a primary teacher) told me from her experience, the kids from CPSKG is a bit 坐唔定....and not a good image to apply primary.

But honestly speaking, if i have no other offers, I still will take CPSKG as it is a good kinder with emphasis in Eng and PTH.

Charlotte2008,我york已交咗留位.18号交SN呀!!
我想選定呀你知啦細B入SC很難預咗fail呀! ha ha

If York & SN同時有offer,which one you choose??

Yes... it is difficult to get a seat in St Cat....Did yr kid perform well in St Cat ?

If you have confidence in getting offers from one or more kinder at higher rankings at yr mind, then just keep York and dun pay St. Nic (if u dun wanna to pay once more for similar ranking kinder).

Touch wood, if u have no other offer, then stick to York .... or you may try for very 心仪kinder (like st cat) next year again.... as BIG B....

Further, maybe, u like YORK very much after yr kid gets in....

Honestly speaking, my approach will be the same.... I will keep Stafford for K2.... except getting offer at dragon-kinder.

If no offer in Good Hope (as I target for dragon-kinder), I will try again next year. .... indeed, I wanna my gal to be big B....but next year, I will only try one or two kinders...not so crazy as this year.... I AM VERY TIRED !! :)

charlotte2008

I will choose YORK (as my gal is too active ...may not matched to St. Nic).

But if York still posts the system of  debenture, I MUST shift to St. Nic.

I feel completely sicked about the debenture issue.

同一機構咩？ ... 分咗家啦！

人物....

夫:蔡國贊 、妻:馮麗媚(如果係SN校長個名，咁應該叫 馮麗湄)
vs
夫:馮禮城、妻:譚淑賢
+
黃譚發...夫姓黃 名譚發？
+
馮鎮邦 ...又係馮氏家族成員？

你估會唔會係兄妹/姐弟 關系呢？... 真係一個教育王國


不過老實講, 我小朋友讀緊SN, 我又唔覺校長hot sale喎~ 反觀York校長就霸道得多嚕，仲成日讚自已個仔幾叻幾叻....
當然，KG都係一盆生意嚟啫，人家明買明賣，冇呃你架！ 我見有啲家長會擔心如果讀York會受岐視，我又唔見得有咁唔民明嘅人囉... 大家杯茶唔同啫... 你係得嘅，間學校先收你啫，好似鍾鎮濤個女咁，佢哋夠鋪晒路，想入女拔啦，咪又係唔得！  不過，如果係拎住張(天主教)洗禮紙嘅「無辜」York學生呢...就慘啲


金巴倫   1971年創校 (創校最耐，如果係咁差嘅，校長又唔做嘢，一早俾人彈喇！)


約克      1979年創校
萊茵      1996年創校  
施德福   1998年創校
學校好進取！淨係佢哋嘅activities，一樣係賣Violin同Tennis就知係同一機構出品啦，某程度上佢好成功架，呢啲咪又係家長所要求嘅風氣，又何必一出事就喊晒口話被騙呢。人哋個talk當時都吸引到你哋架！

老土啲都要講句「不喜勿插」，純粹個人愚見(勿見怪)！

In SC唔肯出聲但其他做哂並且做對.
我亦打算給他做大B,同你一樣找一條龍.
明年再努力..ha ha

====我冇讀York，唔知叻過York幾多。不過佢哋鼓勵學生講，只知一樣有Show & Tell... 其實既然同一祖宗(甚至係始祖出嚟嘅，衰得幾多吖)，不過，SN外籍老師唔係長駐班內，而且全校得三個，每個睇三班倒。不過因為小班教學(selling point)，所以都照顧得掂。


課程的程度深or淺?
====深、淺 真係見人見智。N1(即K1)教Phonics, Shapes, Numbers, Vocabulary (eye, nose, colors), Nursery Rhymes, 常規(學排隊、學飯前後洗手...etc)， 中文兒歌，普通話(詞語同唱歌)

功課量有多小?
====開學初期，隔日，而家每日都有。

何時執筆寫字?
====N1(即K1)。寫吓123、人腳日月、ABC、形狀，同埋填吓色囉。

有沒有課外活動安排?
====有！不過唔係免費，亦唔係打波彈琴。而係以英文，普通話為主嘅興趣班 (Art, Singing, Phonics and Kids Chef)，可以話係返埋下午班咁濟。

煩請現讀SN的家長可況說多些小朋友讀了SN後的轉變.
====頭幾個星期都會home sick (喊)架！不過，而家好鍾意返學！
講嘢叻咗 ，識好多嘢 (近排轉天氣仲同我講，秋天嘛，樹葉都變黃 嚇得我吖... hahaha)

都真係幾好笑

PM班聽聞冇得上半日興趣班架(本校教師)，但佢有另一啲一個鐘頭興趣班嘅 (幾進取  ) 類似art 嘅~ or 跳舞班 ... 呢啲就出面請老師返嚟教 (要早一個鐘返學校)
