$6000 per month is similar to that for kindergarten.

回復 SHERMEN 的帖子

It is a very good school. It has a beautiful new building (and indoor swimming pool) which is quite rare in HK. The cost of applcation is stamp and your time - as no application fee is payable (unlike many competitors). Again, unlike many competitors, it accepts both boys and girls.
I guess some elements of self-fulfilling prophecy are also in play. When a sufficient number of parents think it is a good school and they must apply nothwithstanding whether their kids are suitable here, then almost all keen parents are unwilling not to try. The result is that, statistically speaking, it is more difficult to enter Primary One of this school than to enter an undergraduate program at Harvard University.
The monthly school fee of $6,000 is high by local standard, but it is, like Club Med, an all--inclusive fee, such that any extra activities are free. So you do not need to worry about "other expenses" here.
If you have worries about school fees, you may apply for financial assistance. Once your child is accepted, no one in the school is supposed to know that your child is financially assisted. However, your worry may come from another source. One day, your child may ask you why almost all his/her classmates are going home on (chauffeur driven) limousines while he/she has to travel by bus. When it happens, you will have a good answer, won't you?

How true!

A lot of schools are said to be good, but maybe only those who have the privilege to study in it can tell whether it is suitable to them or not. Even then, it doesn't mean it is good for your child or not as different child has different character and family background.

Many schools in Hong Kong are good. SPCC is just one of them. Agree with 4eyesdad that beside the school fee, there is not much other expenses. If you are talented, many of their extracurricular activities are sponsored and may even free to join like violin. I think the character of the child is very important rather than the family background. Though there are quite a number of students come from those 'super rich and famous families' but still majority of them still are normal people like you and me.
