if i got those offers,
i'll chose SC

i like SC's emphasis on English and its activity-based teaching, and its prospect to good primary is good.

many ppl said HKPS is good too, even better than SC, esp. in its ratio of NET. I also have friends with children studying in HKPS, who shared a lot about HKPS. Comparing the two, SC seems better.

KV is very good too, it provides good training, esp. in writing and spelling, that helps the children to get used to p1 easily.

Could you pls provide more specific info? I've heard that SC:

will share English Teacher when K2 (only 45min in English class but divided into groups to share 1 teacher)
Their English teachers are not western people but Indian English speaking people.
For K1, they starts learning A-Z. Chinese is easier then HKPS.
When K1 in morning class, then K2 will be afternoon class.
1:16

HKPS:

They have English and Chinese Math.
K1 and K2 can also be in morning or afternoon class.
1:10
Will not share English Teacher (western people)
Student are much creative and active when learning.
International phonix + Potungua phonix too.
Background and school networking are pretty strong.
As they have pre-nursary class, for such repeat student, in K1, their teaching way for them wouldd be different.
They have good and updated materials for gifted child.

KV:

Traditional + Chinese base
Chinese math and Chinese are good
Student are good manner but less creative

That's all I got from all mommy friends but not sure whether true or not. I need more specific and optimistic datas.

All 3 schools are all good.

If your 仔仔比較creative and pretty like western teacher, then KV may be less suitable for him. Both SC and HKPS 都應該教得好. So you can choose amongst factors like wher you want western people as teacher / teacher student ratio, etc.

Dear Lawlinhy,

Thx for your opinion and I think HKPS might be the best for my son. I have also a bad experience of SC's teacher resently. They looks nice but when new parents wants to ask some deeper questions related to their class, etc., they're so cool. Suppose, it'd be a good chance to be more understand each other (I mean school and parents/student) but they would actually put on a defend or something like that. That's not a good image to me. It seems there's something that they're hiding and don't want to let new parents know more until kids are studing their school. I'm pretty disappointed.

SBW,
Sorry for not replying earlier.
It’s good, it seems that you’ve already made up your mind on which kg, and I can save my comments.

However, are you sure about what you hear about SC and HKPS? i doubted on some of the points.

HKPS

Hi,

Just wonder if a kid is rather conservative and timid, do you think HKPS suits him?

I know HKPS is good in many aspects (eg. Eng/PTH training) and has rather good reputation, so I don't want to give up the K1 seat...

The other choice is KM.

It depends on what you prefer. KV is traditional and conservative. I've heard 1 case: One day when a kid coloring a tree, she painted in red but then the teacher said it should be green... For me, I think that limits kids creativity.

Hi SBW,

My son's alternative is Keen Mind (KM), not KV.

The adv of KM is the smaller teacher/student ratio (2:24) than HKPS (2:30) which may fit timid boys like my son, but HKPS has higher reputation in many aspects.

SBW,

For your choices, i think both HKPS and SC are good for your kid.

If you are looking for "a big family" style KG, HKPS is even better and its reputation is good enough while SC is having longer history with high reputation, so you think it is a pity to give up the seat at SC...

Anyway, once you make your choice, believe yourself and go ahead.

SBW,

Have you made your mind? I also have a dilemma of choosing SC or HKPS and I have already given up KV.

We have to make our decision before 2 May, right?

Dear Furbymao,

Really appreciate for all your info! Thank you! I want to how many kids do you have? Age? School and KG (previous or current)? Sorry to ask that much! How do you know that HKPS students at Primary is not that 標青? So, SC stucents performs better at Primary?

For the maths, SC and HKPS, which one's better? Time remaining is so short for me now. Many of my friends likes HKPS and also due to their background...

Hi SBW,

你好，首先我想講明，我相信任何幼稚園都會有人話好，有人話唔好~~~

我個仔今年都考左三間幼稚園，其中兩間同你一樣，根德園同九龍塘樂基，我已經決定九月比個仔讀樂基K1~~~

至於SC，我無報考，不過我有個舊同事個仔讀緊SC K3，早幾個星期我同佢聚舊，佢以前都好積極叫我個仔報考SC，但係今次佢同我講好後悔讀SC，因為佢個仔一間小學都考唔到，佢仲話佢個仔果班無一個同學考到名校~~~

以上只係我同事o既一個經歷，我相信只係個別例子~~~

SBW,
I agreed that every parent’s perspective about kgs are different.
就算讀同一間學校, 每個學生的遭遇同結果都會好吾同.
Hence, despite all the comments you’ve heard, you just choose the one you think is the best for your child.  If HKPS seems the best for you, why not go for it?  i think you've already made up your mind.

With plenty of parent friends in HKPS and SC, hence I know those students’ performance in kgs and primary.  Of course, there may be some HKPS graduates very標青 in primary that I don’t know, and every year, HKPS will have some graduates admitted to DBS.

Maybe pure coincidence, the “group of friends” I know in SC, over a dozen (really over 10) of the students in the same K3 class got admitted to P1 of DGJS/DBS/Ying Wa, etc. in the coming Sept. Of course, SC has so many students that it is not at all surprising that some do not get a “good place”.

I swear I’m not拗頸, but that’s really what I heard. I know a parent whose son studied in HKPS for K1 to K3, the mammy told me 好後悔入左樂基 and that if she could choose again, she would definitely not choose HKPS for him.
Again, individual incidents, maybe !!
