剛in 完Keen Mind

Woodymom

If parents don't like KM, why do they let their kids study in it?

Yesterday I met another mom whose daughter used to go to the same playgroup with my son. She asked me which KG my son studies now, I told her "KM" and she said she knows KM. She also said it was quite famous indeed.

我琴日都in 完km, 佢係咁多間我in 既kinder 最滿意既一間, 雖然我個仔表現唔好, 都唔慌會收, 不過間學校係真你好 !

I have good feeling in interview in km, too.  However, I am concern K1 (some kg called nursery for age 3) is not suitable to write.  They need to write some words in k1, so I still consider whether to give my son to go.

I'm a K2 KM mum.  My kid is learning to write "自己", "朋友" & "家人".  No "policeman" yet.

My son is studying  in K1 now. He doesn't need to write any words. But he needs to do some exercises, e.g. drawing lines, colouring, matching, etc. Maybe in K2, they start writing words.

Hi 1116,

你有機會可看看KM這兩、三年的學生人數是不斷增長的, 有些K2插班生更是從很多人認為出名的kindy轉去.

Yes, my son is studying in KM.  He has good progress both in language and social development.  The teachers are wonderful.  Parent-teacher communication is very strong.  The teachers frequently call me for reporting my son's performance in school.   More importantly, my son enjoys school life very much and tells me what he learns from school everyday.  He always sings the songs which he has learnt from school.   Personally, I like the school very much.

However, the school is not famous enough than SC and KV.   This is the fact.   This is the point I only concern.
   

JDJ,

You have said what I EXACTLY wanted to say except the reputation part.  Thanks!

想請問劍鳴K1普通話一星期有几堂呢?好貴呀學費

chrischeung,
for k1 - twice a week.
for k2-k3( international class)- teacher will speak Mandarin for teaching media, so kids can listen and speak more Mandarin with this environment, you need not send them to outside courses.

如果$3000 for 10 lessons and each lesson is 1 hour,
當我每星期上 2 次課外活動,
咁一個月咪即係要比 $6xxx (連返mon-fri學費), 咁好貴咯!

如果我出去上得唔得呢?  出面我上 phonics + 學琴都可能二千呅左右喎!  差成千呅!  係咪大部份km學生都一定上返學校開的活動呢?

monmantong, for the extracurricular activities, is it $3000 for 10 lessons and each lesson is 1 hour, which can be any of the activities (e.g. choir, art, phonics) that we can choose from?

km個環境真係唔錯, 而且我覺得佢地d老師, 嬸嬸對小朋友都好好........ 我同我朋友in完都有同感.......不過我估佢唔會收我個囡, 因為佢唔係好肯答老師問題....... 答d唔答d.....真係激c人

monmantong

km 大部分 ECA 在 Sat, 大概$ 100 per class.

Re K1- only has writing on 2nd term, but the words will be very simple, those words are related to the 線條pratise, kids can handle .

chrischeung

monmantong,
但系國際班吾系下午先有咩?

chrischeung

請問有冇上學期書出讓呀?我一月插班都話要買書,但系用得一個月又到下學期,請幫忙.

Woodymom

If you join 2 kinds of ECA in one week, you need to pay $100X2X4= $800 for one month. If you don't let your kid join any ECA, you won't feel any pressure from KM. Last year, my son was in N1 but he did not join any ECA. That's totally alright.

So I am afraid these words is too difficult for K1:一, 二, 三, 十, 土, 人, 大, 天, 山, 木, 石, 刀, 土 0-9, a-z & A-Z.  And this is my concern whether to give my son to go km or not.  But I like this kg very much.
