朋友個囝囝reject左, 連waiting都無,
聽講好多人in幾間學校黎做back up,
請問係咪好多人會drop返個位出黎
佢只有再寫信去救恩希望有候補位
真係好慘,佢只係考左救恩一間咋
有無人有經驗可以share重有無機會 ...

早幾年就聽說開學後都有位，不過轉了校長後吸引力大增就不知道情況會如何了，我覺得你朋友只要有誠意應該都還有機會的。

Thank Jen and other moms' comments.

My son has also been accepted.  It is our 1st choice and my son love it too as he didn't want to leave the school on the interview day.

Just want to share my obervation below. Some school have arranged their senior form student to guide the parent on the interview day (eg. Kau Yan, St Stephen Stanley and 高主教), I was very impressed by the Kau Yan student as they looks very smart comparatively.

I find St SXXXX a bit .........  On the date of interview, some students rushed to a celebrity couple and the headmistress was so so happy to greet them.  Personal feelings, no offence.

但係共有千多人申請就真係校長說的, 因我朋友的仔仔在她那裡讀四年級, 她親自問她的, 因朋友細囡今年也考.

既然有兩天的面試, 有一千人名考生也不出奇.  請問各位知道最大的考生編號是什麼?

My personal view: St SXX with good campus but too far. Students are smart too. But a bit "blue blood" feel.   For RC, too strict and old teaching style.

The lunch for the student to have daily is totally different (much healthier) to the food we tasted on the interview day. My son is in P1 this year and there are 2 dishes + soup/juice every week. There are also bread provided (in free) to the students everyday during their rest time.  

The students are encouraged to do a lot of Eng and Chn reading everyday.  

I'm really glad to let me son to study in Kau Yan. It's absolutely a good school for kids.

All depends on what you want.  My P1 boy has gone to private tutoring ever since kindergarten.  He is in the same English class with 2 DBSPD boys and a co-ed girl.  He is reading same paper back novel ...

I attended several school's open day and thru the whole interview process, I felt that Kau Yan was most sincere.  My only reservation is that its has no "one dragon" school nearby.

I do like Kau Yan as the headmistress and the teachers are the caring type.  However, I do hear from others that their teaching can be a bit too relaxed and may need extra boast from tutors at spare time.

However, to be fair, most DSS schools are like this nowadays.  Whenever I go visit these schools I always look at their school books and compare them to the "show pieces" from students.

My conclusion is if these students really just do so little home work, it will be impossible for them to be that good in writing essays.

Free,active, fun learning at school.  Dirty work for the parents to take care at home....

Jen, Semideaf & Bbone,

I havn't made up my mind yet.  Would you please share more why you love this school?  There is little discussion in BK or other forum and I do not know anyone studying in Kau Y ...

Jen

Hi SuggieC,

He is in 1 Grace.  I love this school so much, and now I am in it, I am even thankful that he doesn't get accepted by the school that I previously wanted so much.  God knows what is the best for him.

Semideaf, in a way true.  A lot of dirty works are done by parents at home, but isn't it just the same for other famous school?  Students there also go to a lot of tutorial classes.

Kau Yan accepted my son.  After interviewing 3 schools, I really like this school except it is too far from my home ( from Chai Wan ).  Seems all teachers are loving and caring the students whoever the students are smart or below the standard.

lorettaleung

Does anyone know the timetable of school bus from Chai Wan to Kau Yan?  Will the student wake up at 6am?  Will the school bus pick up on/before 7am?  Pls kindly advise in details, thanks

My daughter did accept by KY.

The reason why I apply this school because this is recommand by my colleague's wife. She is the primary school teacher for many years in HK side. I gave her the list including St. Paul co-ed to give me the comment. When she see my list with St. Paul co-ed, she did advise me the school which are good and have more or less the same academic level from SPCC.

So, I will expect this school is not as easy as we think in academic.

Besides, the interview is bring by my hobby. He knows nothing about this school. But, the school give him the image is good. He said, the teachers did caring the children. The students there are very polite. The principle there can see have heart to handle the school.

For me, the school is in HK side - Central web for secondary. So, this really attrack me so much.
