Hi me too.  but I worry whether it is a through-train to P1.  The other consideration is NIS has no secondary school yet.  I worry my son will have no place in IS secondary but very hard back to LS.  Any advice?

i got k1 offer as well. i don't concern secondary school very much as i may send my kid to Canada after primary school. I am also struggling about the through-train issue, and i will ask the school next week.

wow then you really like NIS. You even move home for it! So you definitely will accept the offer?

I am offered AM session.

I asked another current parent in ek and she told me that actually some will leave in K2/P1 and go to ESF and other IS, mainly because NIS doesn't have secondary.

seems that the competition is not that "high". I called school and they are in mid-term break. Will call again next week.

RC and ESF are harder to get in than NIS. i love NIS because it is more down-to-earth and pure and less commercial.

curriculum is different but one of current parents told me that there is no difficulty to pick up the ESF/ other IS academic learning in secondary school.

We went to the interview and still haven't received anything from the school. I guess we don't get the offer.




作者: teresaleung80    時間: 14-10-23 18:08

yes we love the school enviornment and the teachers are all very nice.
what time is for the AM session? for PM it is 12:30-3:30pm
作者: dwide7    時間: 14-10-23 20:59

Our son got PM offer too.  Already sent in the cheque for acceptance.
Just wonder about its quality of Chinese teaching.  Got any idea?

:( My son received a "turn-down" letter. We didn't attend any playgroup in NIS, Are most of you get admitted attend playgroup ?

:(
作者: dwide7    時間: 14-10-25 09:32

Yes, my son had attended playgroup.  I think they give priority to playgroup attendees.
作者: little_gigi    時間: 14-10-25 11:09

Thanks so much for your information !!
We couldn't attend playgroup since our grandparents not willing to take bb there, It's a little bit far from our home. I really like the school hope they can put me into waiting list !

Me too.  my son joined the playgroup also




作者: queenie1985    時間: 14-10-25 19:38     標題: 回覆:NIS k1 offer

Me 2....my son joined the playgroup. Quite surprised that they didn't let us choose am or pm..




作者: teresaleung80    時間: 14-10-27 14:23

my son didnt join their PG, and indeed his performance in interview was quite bad. we thought he wont be able to get the offer!! luckily he got the PM class offer!

Me either. My daughter wasnt in any of the playgroups but was admitted AM offer. The school is really loving and caring but i am concerning P1 offer to k students

My son has been attending the playgroup and he gets an AM offer.




作者: teresaleung80    時間: 14-10-28 11:11

Thanks!! The k team will go too?i will go and ask then. I called suki and she asked me to send email to ask principal. I sent but no reply at all....




作者: vinvillalee    時間: 14-10-29 22:23

Yes. You can meet Mr. Wise & Miss Lisa.
作者: vinvillalee    時間: 14-10-30 08:16

補充一句, open day 在小學校舍舉行
作者: queenie1985    時間: 14-11-4 09:11

Just share the reply I got from Ms. Lisa:

"This year we are hoping that all of our K2 children will be able to continue on to the Primary, based on the possiblity that we will be offering mixed-aged classes next year, as we have don this year"

I guess mixed-aged classes will be a solution and the chance to get into P1 is quite high....

But i am not too optimistic about the secondary school....if it runs IB, it takes years for them to get the recognition/accreditation?

多問一句,佢地要求多唔多parent involvement ?我同c6都要返工,好難involve 太多,請假只可以間唔中。

因為而家佢上playgroup由嫲嫲帶,上次老師突然問嫲嫲爹地媽咪係咪好忙,無見過帶佢上。令我覺得佢好似expect 家長involve 好多咁。




作者: readymama    時間: 14-11-11 08:28

不只NIS,其他kindie 都喜歡家長多d involvement. Parent involvement更可能決定於學校take 唔take 小朋友上primary

咁NIS 要求算多嗎? 會唔會大部分家長都係ftm?

我本身是working mom. 我亦不是常常參與學校活動。不過我同c6 分開参與。有時他去, 有時我去。 至於會唔會影響升小學. 我覺得唔會。 但無可否認亞仔大部分同學的媽媽是FTM

多謝你回覆. 我都感覺到playgroup 大部分都係由媽媽帶的, ftm /working mum 唔緊要, 但我只係怕學校會expect 左媽媽全部都係ftm, 咁樣大家都會辛苦.

當然, 學校活動我同c6 都一定會輪流去參與, 唔會孤獨村....只能夠話盡力, 唔想阿仔唔開心嘛.

作者: vinvinaa    時間: 15-5-8 11:26

Just wondering how long did you guys join their playgroup for those that received an offer?

I am thinking to apply for their K1 too
作者: mabelyy    時間: 15-5-8 13:43     標題: 回覆:vinvinaa 的帖子

I didn't join their playgroup




作者: vinvinaa    時間: 15-5-8 14:26
