Actually very much depends how much time you can spend on trainign your son at home. The therapist is able to see your child once a week only. She can only show you how to teach your child at home. I never had time to train my son at home. Secondly, my son hated the idea. Whenever I could manage to spare time to train him, he resisted. But as time goes by, he is now up to standard although he does not speak as well as other kids of his age. I wish I could have quitted my job to spend more time with him.

BUT I DON'T KNOW HOW LONG HE HAS TO TRAIN? ANY IDEA?
my kid now is studying in int'school (only english speaker) in the morning, so I will plan to send him in local school in the afternoon, hope it can help him for handle both eng and chinese lang. , but will put french away at this moment.
I just let my son study at local kindergarten. His speech gradually improved when I switched to speak with him in Cantonese. I still talk to him in English occasionally, when he's doing English homework or when the helper is with us. He is therefore still able to speak simple conversational English and has been accepted by an English primary school as he did well in the English Q&A.
I totally understand you want your son to be excel in both languages. But going to schools in both morning and afternoon is different from going to whole day school (where children have napping time), it may be too much for a 3 and half years old.
If your son is already studying in Int'l school, you may just speak with your son in Cantonese at home unless you are home late very often. That should be sufficient for spoken Chinese unless you want your son to start learning Chinese characters already.
