聖若望英文書院... HOW SAD!!!!

ScarlettChan

BIG and very upsetting news for SJC on Friday!!!!

The campus on Flint Road will be closed soon!! Miss Cxxxg, the long time (more than 30 years!!!!!) Principal, Supervisor and Director, was strongly against closing the campus since she would like to continue the will and also legacy in terms of education of the late and respectful Dr. Liang.

Sadly, the sons, daughters and daughters-in-law of Dr. Liang, came to the school today and demanded Miss Cxxxg to leave right away. Also, Miss Chxn (the Vice Principal who has devoted herself to the school for over 20 years!!!!); Miss Chxxxg (Prefect of Studies who has worked for almost 20 years!!!!!); Miss Wxn, Deputy Prefect of Studies; admin staff in primary and kindergarten sections and some of the teachers were ALL being terminated today with immediate effect becoz they don’t want to shut down the campus on Flint Road.
I really feel ashamed of whomever decided to terminate the loyal staff mentioned below. The decision maker obviously didn't put the students and parents into consideration.

Hi~ScarlettChan,

You seems are senior staff or teacher of the school?? becoz i talk to school and everything no change last friday, but anyway, it is good for SJC, the old school needs a big change for improve many of problems, for example, you can see

這校行政是否有問題　？

i think the problems mainly from quality of some teachers and admin staff (including relatives of Principal), i hope the new management as you
mentioned will bring new direction into school and finally everything better than now.

Is it a really good changes to the school and our children????
Actually, i think that if the school changed a lot especially for the teacher and management no one will get benifit (except who want to make "change" ).
By the way, how come you all can know all these news well, it is amazing that you all can know the school management well too?!
So do you all know any more news? i woud like to take precaution and help our children.

I agree that it will be diffucult for student to adapt the new environment.
Meanwhile, i think we should focus on the new management, that is wheather they would provide a better school life to our kids. So, i guess, now we shouldn't argue the previous things. Most importantly is to solve the existing problem which caused by the new arrangement .
Now the situation is alarming, they ought to consider our children,  nevertheless they should respond toward such serious issue.
So now, i think we should keep an eye on Dr Liang' son ,that is to monitor the current situcation , in order to ensure our kids would not affected by these huge changes.
If there's anything would harm our kids, than it's time for us as a parent to strive for the best !

Hope SJC can give our parents the notices or announcement about the management change ASAP.
It will make me so worry about the future study in this school. And also heard and knew that Miss Cheung for Donald Duck K1 class teacher was not work today. It was so sudden.

梁 挺 生 仙 遊 今 晚 設 靈

上周五因病逝世的「加州」系資深馬主梁挺生博士將於明日出殯，今晚在香港殯儀館設靈 2009-09-17 [/td][/tr]

聖若望書院創辦人 大慈善家
梁挺生於1925年在中國梅州縣出生，是著名教育家梁伯聰的三公子，曾赴美國留學。梁挺生是本港的資深馬主，養馬超過40年以上，在馬場內人人都叫他為「校長」。
梁挺生自小受到父親的薰陶，來港定居後亦開辦學校，名為聖若望英文書院。
除在香港辦學外，他對故鄉梅州亦作出不少貢獻，多年來不斷捐錢回鄉建設，又興建學校，善款數目以百萬元計，因此亦是梅州市政協委員。
梁挺生除是教育家外，他亦是一位大慈善家，他經常捐錢做善事，而每年年尾他都會舉行千歲宴，筵開幾十席，讓一班老人家享樂。去年四川地震，他更捐出150萬元賑災，又以其學校之名捐50萬元，對祖國慈善事業不遺餘力。_新報記者

Yes, so how about the class teacher?
The notice didn't mention why there are a sudden change in regard to the principal , since now are in the middle of term ,  it is a great burden to our kids , parents as well as the teacher have to cooperate with such huge changes.The main concern of mine is that , can't they make these arrangement later when it is end of the year, that is sometime about June or July, than our kids would not be affected. More than that, such sudden change would lead me to think of whether there are any hidden message undermined that do not display to us. It is because as a well organized schooling , they should have consider both the need of parents and children .However, these unexpected change is doing more harm than good. For example, our kids have to deal with the new principal and class teacher, it is extremely difficult to them to build up the interpersonal relationship , such as trust , sense of catering, need etc... Like my kids, he really upset with the absent of teachers , and he ought to get use to the new one .
So now, I am strongly advice the school have to answer the following
1. What is the new arrangement?
2.  Explain how is the school going to operate with such replacement .
I guess, what we need is a comprehensive , reasonable and acceptable statement rather than just merely inform us there are changes . Hence, I think most of us would not regard the notice that they given on yesterday is a proper way to illustrate the current situation.

唉佢地以後都咪鬼攪elderly day.....
連 ms chung 呢個 elderly 都唔respect, 點叫人support 佢地wo....
不過我相信新團體咁攪法冇非都係想當我地呢班bb係白老鼠先, 因已經係下學期, 一般都唔會退學住, 所以亦都係局住比大家睇下佢地的教學方法掛.....等大家睇完先再作打算law....
不過now始終都會係green d 但又會有新的沖激, so 希望佢地改革係成功又有建設性啦, 因為有d 野唔發生都發生咗, 好不好都睇住先啦, 都冇得你簡......
不過 I miss my class teacher....& ms chung........

Hi all parents,

I am very worry and sad too.

We don't know exactly why the Board dismissed Ms Chung with seemly immediate effect. But anyway Ms Chung is a good teacher who teachs the kids in good behavior. At least, both our parents and our kids should properly say "goodbye and thank you" to her. SHE worked in SJC for 30 YEARS!!!

So I just wonder what is the purpose of the board to make such decision. How can they forsee how harmful to make this decision? Or they really want to harm the school reputation in order to close the school soon (as mentioned by the above message)?

Hopefully, the new BOARD can announce within days.

Pray to the GOD.

My son is going to enter K1 in 2010.  What a sad news it is.  

Let's pray.

聖若望英文書院「大換血」
(星島)2010年1月13日 星期三 06:30
(綜合報道)

(星島日報報道)九龍塘私校聖若望英文書院近日傳出校內行政混亂，有家長投訴十多名行政人員和教師被人即時解僱，新校長及大部分教師未經註冊。校方承認校內各方面出問題，現希望撥亂反正，而學校董事會已於上周五要求校長叢桂英離職，另有六名教職員在未有通知下缺勤，校方已即時聘請代課老師和職員填補空缺，而新校長任命已正式通知教育局。

　　本報接獲署名為「聖若望一群家長」的投訴信，並表示已向教育局求助；另在該校facebook群組有人留言指，該校校長及多名服務該校逾二十年的教員因反對關閉該校位於九龍塘火石道的校園而被辭退。近年網上不時出現多項對聖若望校政的批評，包括有家長質疑校方舉辦籌款活動後，沒有交代款項去向、經常要求家長捐款、小六升中派位不理想、教師團隊不穩經常轉換教師、教師教學質素欠佳等。

囡囡本年８月入讀,有點擔心尋求協助

東方日報有半版刊登『師變』比較詳細

看似新校董梁ＸＸ要賣學校地,違背舊校董遺願.

不過無理由咁兒戲,要換就換,話改就改,教署都話佢唔知嘅.

請問有無在就讀的家長給予意見,我當初帶囡囡面試時,

SJC的氣氛是最活潑及老師是最nice,我當日都有見到

舊校長,佢仲送咗個波俾囡囡,言談感覺佢好有經驗,未知

新個果校長係點嘅?
