Share123,
Many thanks for your reply. My wife and I noted that SFA pushes both parents and kids highly pressure. Somebody may not be suitable for it, that why I am considering...

Any info about 聖芳濟中學? Is it band 1?

May I know what is "摺角行為"？ in SFA or Yau Tin?

Dear Monghar,
Million thanks for your sharing. Actually, my son is now learning the calculation of 4 digits X 2 digits, 4 digits / 1 digit. I plan to let him know the fraction in this summer holiday. But I consider the pressure from school if he takes SFA...I reviewed the book list, Eng level is half year higher than others, and heard from other BK parents, test and quiz progress every week...So worry about keeping tighten all the times...

QQMa42,
Thank you for your sharing about SFA. Nice to hear your girl enjoys her school life in SFA. Do you need to take review and revision for testing or examination till midnight? Any misc cost from school?

其實壓力是來自家長，如果家長係緊張形，讀一般官校，測驗考試都會替小朋友準備。為自己小朋友準備考試，是理所當然的。
小女現在於SFA就讀，她很喜歡學校，亦不覺她在學校有比較或者壓力，問佢其他同學幾多分，考第幾，佢都唔知。而且 ...

Dear birdmom,
Some parents and alumna told me SFA made them terrible in pressure, and this stop me go ahead for my boy. Anyway, I did 2nd registration finally.
Heard from you about SFA, and now make me more comfortable. Thanks!
I am not concern about the hard of study, but worry about the “fail” even we tried our best. This would be fallen down his motivation to study here.

I reviewed Maths books which have both Chinese and English. Please advise if 2 languages are required to answer per Maths test.
Is there any extra-curricular activities after school? Any official school bus service available after the activities? As a BK mom mentioned, what is "摺角行為"?
Sorry for my many and many questions, but I need to think clearly about Yau Tin and SFA before making decision.

Best regards,

Oh I see! I know the meaning of folding corner.

For me personally, folding corner is reasonable if it’s requested by teachers. This action could avoid the compare between the kids.

Hi birdmom,
My boy is studying in a common kindergarten. He has learned a systematic phonics there. I do not worry about his English that I think he could do as his eldest sister. My girl, who is in P3 in English girl primary, could be defined in top one-half in the class. Actually, he is so smarter than his sister. And thus, I am not concern about his ability, but I just concern if we need to keep tighten all the times.

Dear ICYGREY,
Really thanks for your info. Do you need to keep tighten all the times, exclude summer holiday? I think my son could face the pressure but it could not maintain all the times. I will discuss with my wife and our deadline is set at the end of Jul.

Best regards,
Chingchingfa

ICYGREY,
Of course, I know primary is totally different from kinder one. I have prepared some studies and exercises for my boy for adopting the change. Most of the primary students are so weak in Chinese, I will focus on this subject.
