I still haven't received any letter on tonight, very disappointed...

I phoned to Stafford in this afternoon and the staff said that the letter was started to send out on last Saturday and a few letter was sent out on today.
If anybody can't receive letter within this week, you can phone to school for enquiry.

Nice to meet u all, my son is MAX ...and he have been accepted by Stafford, the letter was received on 2009.10.27 and the admission date is 2009.11.06......We both interest in Stafford, however, we would still attend the interview of the others KG.  At this moment, I still can't tell Stafford is the most suitable KG for my lovely son.
作者: Orphee    時間: 09-10-30 23:00

Stafford is your first choice?

Actually I still dont know which one is the best for my boy...

I totally apply 6 schools for my boy
1. Stafford
2. St Cat
3. Kenville
4. Victoria
5. Keen Mind
6. York

Of coz SC is the one which I love it most...but it's so difficult, less chance...(but I must go and try it la)

so I dont know whether I should do the interview for other school or not....especially, York! becoz most ppls said it's similiar with Stafford! (just cheaper) and the interview date is same of SC. York at early morning, SC at 1:45. I worry the boy will so tired after the morning interview and haven't got enough tme to take nap before SC's interview....

if I dont go to York, I also worry is it not fair to the boy (or me). Better to do the interview first, u know "more choice for us better than less ma"....

so ....I'm super confusing...!!!!!

of coz I also love Stafford....but SC is the best for me...I'm so difficult to compare the other 5 schools....so headache!!!

anyone can give me a details analysis???
作者: mbba    時間: 09-10-31 10:01

Stafford is not my first choice...but Stafford can provide compatible space with as little as pupils there, and the teachers only need to pay attention to as little as pupils.  So, I think if my son get in this KG will get better attention than other KG.  This is the main reason that I prefer Stafford.

If you ask which one would be my first choice, I would say St Johannes is the one, however, it is too expensive, HK$5200 per month.  However, the English standard is guarantee.

If I remember correectly, your son has been admitted by SN already, right?

If Stafford going to admit your son as well, will you choose SN or Stafford then?

hi, bellabella, as i remember, you also have interest in st. johannes, right?
in the fact, i apply too many kgs, i can't choose anyone now, i will make final decision after all kgs (especially sc & kv) send me the results as well. thus, i need to prepare much money for registration fees for some kgs which i like in top 5.
how about you?

don't worry that i think your bb will get the seat at the end because many parents they will hold some seats instead of one.  thus, after nov, will have many seats to be released again.  which two he attended?

today i have received the admission letter from stafford but pm class, thus, maybe give up.

I have also received the admission letter from Stafford today!! HURRAY!!  Even though it is PM class, it is one of my top choice as I like their effort in training students on their Eng ability.  If you're not going to give it up, our sons might be classmates.

My son's interview at St Johannes will also be held on 14 Nov but earlier than you.

Your admission in SN is AM?

Have you applied York?  How do you compare them?  My husband said since they're fm the same organisation and our son has been admitted by Stafford, why do we still go to York's interview?  As York's interviewing time crashes with 浸幼.  Any advise?  I personally like York more than 浸幼.  

Is 浸幼 using Chinese as the teaching medium?

Stafford has admitted my bb for N1 class, anyone know if completion of N1 class can directly promote to K1 class?

I've heard from my friend that some kg's need further assessment before their N1 students can promote to K1 class and it's the real case that some students need to leave the school if they have failed the assessment after N1 class!

作者: mama828    時間: 09-11-5 13:11

May I ask if your son is both accepted by York and Stafford, which school will you choose? I remembered the principal said Stafford has Eng. NET as head class teacher and some mom said the class size is smaller. (May I know how small is it?) It seems really good. I also prefer not only the class but the school is also small so its good for the caring of every single child. It seems the quality in Stafford is more promise. As my son is also small baby, I'm afraid the teacher in big school with many students will not pay much attention to him.

However, Stafford's school fee is really much more expensive. York's school fee is much cheaper and it has established for longer time, but no promise the class teacher is NET. I'm afraid not many people know that Stafford link up with York? Some mom said that they have relatives study in Stafford, did you know the result of the primary school placement.
作者: lilian926    時間: 09-11-5 13:24

The interview for York will be coming up on this Sat... However, I think I will still choose Stafford even York will accept my son...

Stafford is a small school ... they only accept 50 to 60 students this year... I heard many good comments from this school... many mommies said their teachers are very caring... I really love they have NET as the head class teacher!!!

I used to think that the fees for Stafford is much higher than York... However, my friend just told me that the fees for York is much higher... around HK$5000 each month.... I really doubt that...

Besides, I would like to know the primary 1 result for Stafford too.... too bad that they didn't post it on the web site....

HI lilian,

My son is also accepted by Stafford and I'm also thinking if I'll attend the interview for York.

I'm sure that the shool fee in Stafford is more expensive. My husband said that the principal in the talk said the school fee in York and Stafford is the same. However, York X10 mths but Stafford X12 mths so you need to pay 2 mths extra in Stafford. However, Stafford must provide NET as head class teacher but York is not a must. Besides, the school size of Stafford is smaller. That's why I'm thinking. It's because I do prefer small school and has NET. Tough it's name is not as famous as York, I think the quality at Stafford seems better.

Hi Lilian,

Your son is admitted by Stafford in AM class right?  Mine is PM, nice to meet you.

I have the same feeling as you that I'll choose Stafford than York.  My son's interview at York will be next week.  My husband even dont want to go to take the interview at York since Stafford has already admitted my son.  But I think we will still go.

For the primary school allocation, I dont know about the "lucky draw" result.  However, my niece studied in Stafford around 6 yrs before, he can at least successfully applied some good and famous school by knocking the doors.  His mum also said that the Eng level of Stafford is guaranteed.  Overall academic level is also at least 0.5 yr advanced than other KGs.  That means they might be already studying primary 1's curriculum at K3.  So kids should have a easy and relaxed school life in primary 1.

Hope this helps.

作者: toreship    時間: 09-11-5 17:22

Thanks for your reply. It seems like not many people have heard about Stafford, so many people cannot compare the 2 schools!

My daughter is admitted into the pm class in Stafford too. She will go to the York interview this Saturday. Since we have paid the $30 already, might as well go just to see the campus! But from what all the mamis have said, sounds like Stafford is better than York!

For those of you who are planning to go to the York interview, my biu jeh just went last week and she said the teachers just gave pictures for her son to see to answer questions, so her son could not sit still at all (since it was so boring without any toys). So I don't think my daughter will do well because she cannot sit still either. She did well at Stafford only because Stafford interviewed her by using the "shopping at the supermarket" method!

I have kids of relatives studied at both school before.  Graduates from both school can have a high chance of being admitted by good primary school. So no worries on this area.

I think if you want a more "famous' KG, definitely it's York than Stafford.

If you want a better Eng environment, it will be Stafford.

I just called Stafford up and understand more about their curriculum.  They have native Eng teacher as class teacher (so dual class teachers and the other is Cantonese teacher).  But for York, they only have Eng native teacher as "subject teacher".  That means the Eng teacher only comes to class for several minutes to teach them Eng.  Stafford also use Eng as the medium in teaching Math.  I am not sure about York but I guess it will be Cantonese.

For campus, i guess York is bigger (never been there) but Stafford's campus is not bad as well at least it is clean, though it is not big.

Hope this helps.

well, congratulations that stafford has been admitted your son in pm class. i'm still consider if to pay registration fee or not.
yes, sn in am class.
i also applied york & interviewed on oct. 31.
if hkpuk is crashed york, i think you can attend hkpuk (if you like this one) interview because york & stafford are sisters' kgs (as i don't know when i applied them on sept).  but i don't like hkpuk after i attended their seminar on sept 12 because they use cantonese as the teaching medium in major.
honestly, you can email me at [email protected] if you want to talk with me over the phone.

hi bella,

when i said "comparing the 2 schools", i was talking about Stafford and Think (not York) because I was asking around if anyone knows which one is better. Both accepted my daughter but I only want to pay the deposit for only 1. Do you have any ideas which one is better?

Comparing York and Stafford, I will probably choose Stafford. Even though Stafford is less "famous" among parents, good primary schools would probably know which students have better English standards.

bellabella_oh,

thanks a lot~

dear all,

Stafford accepted my daughter for AM class. My problem is, my husband does not like Stafford very much, he seems want her to study at more famous school though i like Stafford. So we will still have interviews for the other KGs and choose at once...

Hope that our kids can be classmates!

I understand the struggle between famous school and non-famous school (like Stafford) but you actually like it.  I am in this situation as well.  However, I will analyse in this way:

-famous school name: more for the parents' face (that means is the kid really benefited from this?)
-non-famous school(like Stafford): more for the kids as they really care about the kids
-when it really goes to the central primary school allocation system, or even the "knock the door" system, will the primary schools consider more on the name of your kindergarten or the actual academic / intellectual ability of the kids?
-Stafford is providing a very good and recognised Eng environment to kids: is that what you want and what you think that's important to your kids?
-many of the famous KGs has already got set of standards to teach the kids, is that what you want?  It could be good in the way that the quality of the curriculum might be guaranteed; it could be in the way that it is not flexible enough.

It is really a very hard decision to make!!

For primary allocation, you're right that the child's performace is the most important. It's because if the school only consider the child's performance, they'll not consider which kinder he study. Even though they consider your son/ daughter's kinder, they'll not accept many children from the same kinder. They have 30x4-5 classes/ year. If they accept 2x, it's already many. However, the famous kinder usually have many students every year e.g. more than 100. Therefore, at the end, your child's performance is the most important.

I also heard many cases that children come from very famous kinder but still has no offer for any DDS. For me, 1st priority is 一條龍 because you must have one offer in hand. 2nd choice, the kinder can boost your child's ability best. The kinder is famous or not, I will consider but not the most important factor.
