有無 2009 Victoria(Harbour Green) N1同學, K1 會唔會轉校?

bbeasy25

煩惱中, Need to make desicion before 14/05. My son love teacher and go to school very much, I afraid he can't adapt new school.

mrshoho

My child will continue K1 at Vic HG too, I love the school, my child loves the school, the teachers are great as I don't have much expectations from teachers anyway...... as long as my child is happy at school and developing normally according to his age, then I am happy!!

I didn't apply other K1 for my child because my experience with Vic HG was so far OK and nothing major bad happened to me.  My child loves the teachers and talks about school life with me all the time.  

I agree that there are good teachers and bad teachers out there in every school, so teachers' behaviour or attitude is not my major concern since it is out of my control.  

To me, kindergarten is the very first taste of school life for my child, a happy start is the most important, I chose Vic cos it offered a wonderful, happy , pleasent environment for my child to enjoy school life.

o甘唔smart又點呢？我諗個疑問係老師有冇motivate過同埋用乜方法motivate個學生。我諗at least老師應同家長傾吓點樣共同努力去引起個學生既興趣

我的case,老師是有try的，好似我個女食茶點最慢，一開始老師話獎貼紙，我女即變最快，過幾天，我女對貼紙無興趣，又變回最慢，老師又話最快可做小老師，我女又變回最快，就咁來回幾個回合，最近老師同我講女女可keep住應有的speed了.....

Hi,

If you remember what i've said before, if your child is smart, and like to follow what the teachers' have said, there will not be many problems in a classroom like this.

多謝分享，其實我係c9八掛，個個topic都搭吓咀

而且Vic收左我個B，我係turn down左好多offers先註冊Vic，所以如果有機會再深入了解Vic我自然緊張問吓呢

Hi,

If you remember what i've said before, if your child is smart, and like to follow what the teachers' have said, there will not be many problems in a classroom like this.

To be fair, we, as parents, have the responsiblity to help our children.

It is difficult for teachers to care all children's needs.

Hi,

As for the follow-up work done by the teacher, the only thing that i could see is they keep calling parents about the recent happenings of their children.  They need "us" to help the children, for example giving extra tutorial classes (attending training sessions outside) to them so that they would follow instructions in class things like that...

They said they have done something in class for example asking students to sit down and complete the work first before moving to another game table ...

Whether this is effective or not is a question.

Hi brrbaby2007,


你也很緊貼Vic 的動態喎!

首先, 謝謝你的恭賀.

I have read your reply.  It's good to communicate with each other and understand each other's point of view by raising questions and giving responses.  I have actually thought my child's education in-depth since having my views posted in this website.

Regarding the continual of education in Vic, I do want to see if my child would like to study in this school for another year. If this is really suitable for her, she would complete her kindergarten schooling in this school.

she is quite a "special" girl who has her own way of seeing things.  If i put her in traditional schools, sitting there in the classrooms, reading books, reciting poems, rhymes, songs, she might lack motivation to learn.  She would see this as a kind of "suppression".

One of my friend's girl who once studied in a traditional school has become a passive, quiet girl. But actually, this girl is very clever and is happy to interact with adults and classmates.

Motivating students to learn, training students to learn things or wait patiently which they may not have interest in , and getting unmotiviated students involved in the activity are the basic teaching duties.

If your children are lucky enough, you will have good teachers like this...helping children whatever they can...thinking ways to help ...

I repeat: Hong Kong is a place where freedom of speech is enjoyed under the law.  This is a value we should treasure.

Being a responsible and open-minded child educator, or a worker, he or she should be ready to accept different opinions and adjust their teaching pedagogies...

Hi,

You are right.

"Free play" should not be emphasised in classroom learning as students may form a bad habit of learning, choosing whatever they want to do.


In a group activity, children should be "trained" to stay in the group, trying to get involved in the activity even they are not very interested in it.

Clear "limits" or "rules" should be taught to children so that they would not always walk away from the group activity.

ranicanice

Yes, you are right to a certain extent if we apply K1.

But, then how about K2? At least, the other schools would have a "look" at the assessment report.

You know, children's performance may vary from time to time.  The performance in the interview may not truly reflect children's personality and abilities.

Another important point is: This is a life-long record.  Even not too many people would pay attention to it, to be fair and objective, the assessment should be done seriously and comprehensively.

This is the principle we, as civilized and modern people should adhere.

no worry .. i don't think the school will look at the "assessment results" of N1 / even K1 when you apply other schools. They focus on interview performane more!

Hi all,

A comprehensive assessment is needed for all of our children.  This is an issue which everybody (the general public) knows or should know.

There is no need to tell this to any schools becau ...

是否有甚麽誤會？我是同意你的觀點的。我只不過順帶提一下academic並非識多幾個字or識做幾多數就叫好。因為好多人話Vic淨係識玩但實際我想不是這樣。我B未在Vic讀還是讓在Vic讀的家長談一下比較好:idea:

ranicanice

Hi Christi,

You are so objective in explaining what our children in Hong Kong need in the key learning stage.

"Academic " might mean how you make good use of your learning strategies such as learning how to explore, analyse ...and apply this in your daily learning experience or in the lessons /exams at school.

The basic element should be  - you have a heart/motivation to learn.  (Vic can surely do it!!!)

More important things that follow: How we (parents/schools) consolidate their learning experience so that they acheive a considerably good academic result.

There are two class teachers in Vic: one is a HK lady, and another is a NET.  If your child is good in English or likes English very much, there will be plenty of time / chances for your child to talk or respond to the NET as the NET would be in the classroom for a total of 3 hours.

Of course, if your child is a person who always takes the initiative or the responsibility to do things or talk, learning would always be fun and fruitful in the "free play" learning environment.

Or if you, as a mum, have sufficient time to tutor your child at home to collaborate with the school, facilitating your child's learning, everything will be fine.
