sorry, i dont mean to make you mummies worry, but as i got this answer from the school, i think i should tell and speak out, maybe you try to call and ask the school directly and see what they say la ><

吳校長會係黎緊正式校長，趙校長係暫時幫手開校既校長 ..... as mentioned by 趙校長 on the phone!

咁到底個位吳校長而家係做乜？而家校長姓趙喎。
唉！其實我都好擔心，我由st cat轉過嚟讀K3,如果到頭來小學唔收，我真係覺得好對唔住呀女，可能讀st cat反而可以考到 ...

I also personally asked them long time ago and before registration and their answer was "perference will be given to KG students, but it is not a guarantee".   From my conversation with them and many other parents posted in this forum, the school really have not mentioned that the primary school will guarantee to accept 100% students from GH KG.

I also think that most school will allow themselves the flexibility not to accept some very poor students, but it should be exceptional cases.

咁又唔係咁講呀！當日interview吳校長千真萬確話過一條龍，講真如果當日佢無講過的話，無咁樣派定心丸的話，相信未必咁多人肯博一間新校。再講，我絕對無意製造恐謊或無中生有，只係我都覺得旁惶同無奈！好怕咁多unknown! 如果其他 ...

我知道唔 guarantee 的消息, 都唔開心, 我唸好多家長都同我一樣, 係唸著一條龍升 primary, 先入 gh kg (一間甘新, 甘亂的kg)。

sin_928
of course Scared Heart, 唔理 gh 是否guarantee 直升, 起碼 kg 都 run 左一段時間, 唔似 gh 甘亂.

if you have paid everything already, suggested you to give up st. clare's first because of its location and in terms of academic, i think SH is better. then hold SH until the parents meeting of GH to find out  more to decide.

but what's the % of P1 seat they'll hold for kg students? honestly, if it's only 50/50 or even less, I don't prefer to go as the school my girl attending now is very good to me.

annikababy

比我會揀 SH , GH and St Clare, 有GH offer o既人通常都係會去考SH or SPK , 我相信呢兩間是但一間ok 都會放棄GH 個offer .

而家7月中﹐ 都差唔多要有final decision﹗﹗﹗

Bert

If 100% guarantee is so important to you, why not choose St. Clare or SH ?

I agree with you that 50% will be too low !   My girl also sacrified a very good KG to join GH.   
But I think they will not tell us how many % they will accept at this moment.   What they emphasised is that piority will be given to KG students.   If just 50%, it should not be treated as piority !

if only priority, I won't treat it as privillege and rather not to go to GH...

internal assessment is fine, but if interview again at p1, then very slim chance as my girl is the type that takes very very long time to warm up. she can do well at school but not for interviews.

Hi Elmolly,
Agree agree~!!! My girl is the same as yours =(
I'm very worried of the interview... not good for our kids...if we fail, it's better not to change

why need to interview their own students? GH should know them well, they are not outsiders. If GH has to compare their interview marks with the applicants from outside, I will not let daughter study this new KG. Frankly, current KG is much better.

Sorry to interrupt, but can anyone tell me that do I need to buy one more uniform for spare?  Or just one is enough?

elmolly

folks, Miss Chiu called me this afternoon and I asked her for the P1 issue. she said they won't guarantee primary section will take up all kg students as some students may not do well in the kindergarten. however, we'll all have priority as they spend "3 years" to train up the girl. she said primary section 點都要見下個小朋友 and they'll also take the performance throughout the 3 years into consideration. from what she said, seems like most students will be promoted to primary section except for some exceptional case?!

btw, she said the sec of primary got too many calls so she chose not to answer anyone and she really doesn't know the details.

What is wrong with interviewing the students? The teachers in the primary are not the ones teaching the girls in KG.

The secondary school also interviews all primary students so as to know their strengths and weaknessess with the view to have better follow up.

Hi GHCat,

What do you think of the situation of the K3 students and parents this year?
Both of the K3 students were interviewed by the primary school teachers before and they still need to have another interview from the primary school in the coming september. All of us know that the term is just started in the same month.

Agree, my daughter will be K2 in Goodhope.  After I got the offer, I asked so many times for the path to their primary school, their answer is have high chance to their primary school but not guarantee.  Also, I totally agreed with 小天使kiki that if they do not accept their kindergarten guarduate, why we choose this kinder.  Therefore, I thought most of our girls should go to their primary school except some classified as not suitable.

我成日覺得應該好大机會收，如果我地今年呢屆K3收得少，下年都會少咗人報讀K1, 我諗佢地開得幼稚園又係私校，應該唔會唔照顧自己幼稚園嘅，如果佢唔收，咁咪即係話比人聽佢地嘅幼稚園差開出面嘅學校，笑都比人笑死啦，何況佢係新校 ...

I cannot answer for anyone, but I guess that it is not a bad idea to have an interview because the last interview was done almost a year ago. We often hear that young children grow very fast in this stage so the meeting will reveal more potentials of the kids. If we take interview as a chance of knowing the kids more rather than finding out what is wrong with them, we shall be happy to have such arrangement.

I am a past student of GH and we are often taught to think positively, so I look at interview from this perspective. Parents should have confidence in their children. Don't you think so?
