My hubby met 2 other parents today who are not in the same group with us in the 2nd interview.
As for my observation, there are at least 30 kids being interviewed on 13 Nov (5 in each group and 6 groups) . And from BK, there were also interview on 16, 18 & 19 Nov. With this calculation, ~120 were done. Other parents, please supplement.

Congratulation!
My daughter joined the 2nd interview on 23 Nov PM. Not yet received the registration letter. The principal said that she had chosen 2XX children to join the 2nd interview. AND I called the school today and they said that the 2nd interview had been finished. They will send out the letter once the principal gave them the name of child.

According to the school information, a whole series of orientation will start 15 Jan 2011.

作者: TRYTOBEHOMAMA 時間: 10-12-2 22:38

Congratulations to all kids and their parents who are admitted by the school! I am so jealous nei, be honest ...
BTW, it seems this school is very considerate. They don't want to keep parents waiting and has chosen to minimise the time between second-round interviews and notification of admission, hence shortening the feeling of uncertainty on the part of parents. The downside may be the chance of those in the later second-round will be affected by the extent to which places have already been offered. Thinking this way, the school may have already had their priority list of some 120-150 students only instead of 300 students, which is what they say in public, for second-round interview.

We received the offer letter today (2nd interview 19 Nov PM).
Any existing parents of SSCPS to provide some insights as to various aspects of the school, such as conduct/discipline, academic development, extracurricular activities, etc. I pay special attention to students' behaviour and conduct. We are still considering whether we should take this offer as we will have to give up Wah Yan's place if we decide to register at SSCPS.

My daughter has got the offer today (2nd interview on 22 Nov pm) and has to register on 7 Dec. We are also considering whether to take this offer as my daughter has got an offer in 協恩. We are concerned about the conduct of SSCPS's students and whether most of them come from very rich families. Any urgent advice?

I suppose you will give up Wah Yan when you got a offer from SSCPS or YW??
We also had such struggle before the 1st interview. But after talking to the students during the interview day, we had no doubt and we sure that this school is an excellent school not only the nice school environment, but also the students performed very good as observed.
My child loved this school more than the others (e.g. SPCC). We wanted our child studying in one school that she loved most.
For us, SSCPS is the best and we would not consider other schools if SSCPS gave an offer to my child.

作者: thomasha 時間: 10-12-3 00:52

I will have to give up Wah Yan if I accept the offer from SSCPS or Ying Wa. The offer itself does not trigger the cancellation of Wah Yan's place automatically.

I don't struggle until I have to, i.e. when I am given an offer. Too many struggles ahead, we must save our effort for the most worthy ones.

what about when comparing SSCPS and st stephen's girls ? Would it be wiser to put my girl in st stephen's girls which i am for sure my 2nd and 3rd girl would be in as well? Also, hkd 55000 is only for next yr primary 1, but who knows what would it be like when they all reach secondary, plus all the inflation and increase in school fees every yr...I am really having a hard time deciding...please advice..

作者: lovestephen 時間: 10-12-3 01:30 標題: 回覆 33# thomasha 的文章

我都明白的. 這些我們之前都有考慮過. 因為6年加起來的費用確實很大. 但我們只是普通的家庭.而且當大女能進入一間良好的津貼學校時, 將來細女便不用再想了.
但當見到女兒很清楚和堅定地表示很想讀這間學校時,我們已沒有其他疑慮了.現只是擔心學校不取錄.
客觀地說, 如有弟弟的話, 華仁確實是很好的選擇. 我聽朋友說,學習上並沒有想像中大壓力,男生會較粗魯,但並沒有太大行為問題.因我的是女兒, 故其他方面不太清楚.
事實上, 我相信你已搜集和分析過各間學校的優劣,只是一些間難以下決定. 希望你可與兒子傾談,看看他的想法,再決定一所適合他的學校.

Hi GENY,
First of all, I think both school are great.
I see your struggle. Burden in raising 3 kids is really huge. Besides, who want to play this game again and again. Siblings get only little advantages in entering DSS or Private school.
I choose SSCPS because I found this school can provide a more all-round environment and yet not driving the kids and parents crazy. They try to go in-between local and international school, getting the goodness from both systems. I like also the English/ PTH teaching. The 2 students I met in 1st interview were great.
More important, my son love this school after watching its DVD and visiting the school. He prefer co-ed school and so am I (I was in a co-ed primary but girl secondary).
I am still waiting result from CKY which I like it very much also. But I made up my mind as we live in Hong Kong Island.
This is only my personal opinion. Sure different people will have their own preference.

Congratulations!  My daughter is currently in G1.  I understand the mixed feeling that parents are having now.
Every family and child is different, and expectation is different too.  So it's really difficult to compare an apple to an orange.  But I'm sure all are healthy fruits and provide nutrients!
My girl is happy here.  Today, she came home and told me she has finished all her homework at school.  I'm not surprised, cos' it's just like a normal day.
She has dictation and quiz too.  Usually after a chapter is taught.  Also project, that we need to research a bit.  But, I assure you that it's not difficult at all.
Every month will elect a "Student of the Month", student will be award sticker by all subject teachers.  If the student gets most stickers will be Student of the Month.  Undesirable behaviour will also get "bad stamps".  Also, the best group behaviour will be awarded to the beach!!!

作者: thomasha 時間: 10-12-6 16:44

Yes, only the notification letter, the cheque and the delcaration.  No other document was checked.

Just a minor point - the signage is a bit misleading.  It asks you to go to the " library on the 2nd floor" for registration but in fact the library is located on the 1st floor and there is no signage outside the lift or outside the staircase.

The school should have given you a booklet with school bus routes and contact persons.  The registration people directed me to call the contact persons in the booklet for details on schoolbus routes.  (When I read the routes literally, I nearly fainted as route C which applies to North Point covers a very big area, including Braemar Hill, Broadwood Road, Happy Valley, etc.  Fortunately, the registration people said each route is further divided so the area covered by each sub-route would be less.)

The registration table is located in the library on the 1st floor (i.e. press "1" in the lift). I pressed and checked all the available floors on the lift (LG, G, 1 and 2 - fortunately no one else was there or I might be scolded for doing so), no signage in all the floors and no registration tables in sight; went back to LG to check the signage again (it says "Please go to the library on the 2nd floor for G1 registration"), found "library" on 1st floor, so I decided to press "1" and tried my luck in walking through the corridor, and finally...bingo!

Thomasha,

SSCPS is a English & PTH primary school. Native English Speaker to teach English & S.H.E, Chinese and General Knowledge, PTH, use PTH as the medium. So my son can speak very good PTH, but writing isn't that good (because they use English Math). For English, he starts to write composition in Grade 1.
Homework: not many 3-4, you can see the detail in the school website. Most of them will finish in school.
Each year, 2 tests & 2 Exam.
Curriculum: English is very high. Kids starts composition in Grade 1. They have PE lessons in the swimming pool when the weather gets warm. They have reading time everyday.
Extra-curricular activities: too many.
Discipline and conduct: very polite and active. It is a traditional christian school, so discipline is very strict.
Overall, I'm so lucky/happy that my son can study in this school.

多謝各位的分享
我想問吓你們得到SSCPS的offer, 你們的子女是否大仔大女(即8月前出生). 你們覺得做大仔或大女, 學校會有較高取錄. 因為我仔仔是細仔(10月出世), 比較怕羞, 細膽, 明年要考小一了, 現在考慮repeat 做大仔, 但學習上, 讀書寫字, 跟大仔大女比較還要好. 可否給點意見.

Dear ESII;

Let me try to answer your questions..

1.Which KG? local Chinese KG in HK island, ok famous but not the most one.

2.What kind of ECAs? English and PTH class? Music and sports?
my kid learn quite a lot of ECA (music, ice skating, swimmng, math, phonic, english drama ..) but I think they like students who love swimming ..cause this is what they asked my kid during the interview.  As you know they have a 50m swimmng pool, so i think it would be an advantage if your kids loving swimming.  We didn't take any PTH class.

3.What is more important during interview?
Be responsive;  as the 1st interview is a group interview, so the kids has to rise up their hand to answer the questions.

4...etc (Anything else is important??)
If u've got a chance for the 2nd interview, I think you have to show that you love "happy learnng".  Their principal don't perfer kids with a full schedule.

Hope it help!!!!

I called the school again today. Not sure if it was just word of comfort, the one answering my call said that the second round interview was still on until end Dec at least. Is this true? Even if it is, I think the remaining interviews will only be very few in number.

作者: thomasha 時間: 10-12-11 00:01

I'm afraid only the school or "insiders" have an authentic answer to your question. If the school tells you something, there is a good chance that it is true.

Dear lovestephen;

If I were the Principal, for sure I will accept your kid, because I really feel that u have a passion on St Stephen. It will be a great value for SSCPS. As I remember the order is like that....
1. Potential
2. Value + attitude
3. Creative
4. Language
5. International pt of view
6. Art
7. Civil
8. I.T.

But I don't think the list is very important, as SSCPS has all the above elements. If u really like SSCPS,,, pls keep on writing a letter to the Principal. Wish u receive good news before Christmas.

Hey guys,

New forum open in 小學一覧 la!!

作者: DooChoi 時間: 10-12-12 02:11

Hi ESII,
Here are my answers to your questions, hope it help. Mind you we had failed a number of DSS also.
1.Which KG?- PTH speaking local KG am + Internation KG pm = wholeday school and no need for extra language classs
2.What kind of ECAs? English and PTH class? Music and sports? - Drawing, Piano, Weiqi and swimming. No price or trophy.
3.What is more important during interview? I think SSCPS not really need the kids to sit too still as the teachers had asked my son to sit down for a couple of time during the 1st in. Not really sure what happen inside the classroom. But in the 2nd part of 2nd in, the parents were asked to answer a questionnaire while the kids were allow to go around, my kids able to pick a book and sit on a sofa. Obviously that's part of observation.
4...etc (Anything else is important??)
As mentined by the schoolmistress in the briefing, you need to show your same line of thought. This year they talk about the consideration of adapting IB program in SSC (not sure if just diploma or whole school primary +secondary). I totally agreed with that because if you don't really buy their way of teaching, it will not do any good to you and your kid.
Add Oil!!
