有冇人係維多利K2去深灣面試後收到取錄信!因為我還未收到信!

囝囝有些同學今日(3號)收到confirmation letter，已知道如今日收唔到信的便是冇offer了，我都收唔到呀！

作者: TomDog 時間: 08-7-4 01:17

點解唔直接打去學校問?

作者: maxcat 時間: 08-7-4 10:30 標題: 我今日打過去深灣維記佢話查唔到邊位k2學生被取錄

維多利亞嗰位小姐話:「佢地係星期一晚寄出D信,如果今個禮拜仲收唔到D信就應該冇份,」

作者: mattmummy 時間: 08-7-4 11:13 標題: Don't worry

Don't worry, there maybe postal delay.
It would be difficult for everyone to receive the confirmation letter on same day.

Good luck anyway.

請問是從那裡得知這消息?
是真的嗎?

作者: maxcat 時間: 08-7-4 11:58 標題: 我剛剛打去郵局詢問處及維多利亞!

郵政局話:「如果信件於星期一晚寄出,星期二七.一假,會星期三送到總局分信!應該星期四派發收信。」
維多利亞話:「取錄先至有信,如果唔收係唔會收到信嘅!同埋如果我地學校如果收唔到家長回信,會聯絡家長一次confirm」
所以有九成唔得!我都好希望郵局delay postal!唔開心嘅係我地咁支持同相信佢地教育方針!竟然落得如此失望....

作者: mattmummy 時間: 08-7-4 12:22 標題: Never give up

Never be disappointed and there may be something better for us. Do not let your negative emotions influence you & your child. I learnt from others that the date of letter was 30 Jun, but this doen't meand they post it on 30 Jun. And there're total around 140-150 placements, which mean they've to print 140-150 letters and mail them. Just personal experience, I receive my tertiary acceptance very late compare to my peer group, and really depressed over that week, but eventually I received the letter. So, hope is everywhere. Keep positive.
P.S. Sorry for if I'm talking nonsense to you. But I mean, be positive, your child needs positive encouragement from you too!

乜今年維記唔係直升，要面試？以前都唔使，包括今屆畢業生，都係根據交返留位信先後次序來分配學額，但今年搬左新校後好多學生會選擇直升，我仔仔果班都有同學排後補入唔到。

我小朋友在銅纙灣校，之前問VSA時問過waiting list letter會遲些寄，因為唔駛急，都唔明VSA點解今年P1開6班，出年開得5班?

我哋今日都收到wait list信... 自己同太太同囡囡都好失望... 自己聽日重要出trip, 陪唔到佢哋...

不過各位家長收到wait list信都唔好灰心!　要相信自己嘅小朋友係得嘅！維記唔收係學校嘅損失！亦要多鼓勵小朋友，唔好比太大壓力佢哋...

在此祝福各位，明天更好！

Dear all,

I also received waiting list letter on yesterday.

Cheer up! Many parents will give up their places if they have better offer(s). Besides, the primary allocation for Victoria kins is not bad.

作者: TomatoCat 時間: 08-7-6 22:13

I agreed totally!

My kid that he was tested in Putonghua (not Eng and Cantonese). He is not studying in the Putonghua class, and it's very unfair to him.
Some of the parents said that if you are always school volunteeers, and the mothers are housewives, their kids were being accepted. I found that it seemed to be the case.
Very disappointed with VSA's mgt and acceptance policy.

oh well... my daughter told me that she was tested on her mandarin as well... i would not say that it's unfair, but if the school is going to pick kids based on whether they could speak mandarin well, i'd find that totally ridiculous...
with regards to the school considering the level of parents' involvment at the school, etc... i am afraid that's not always the case... my wife takes care of our daughter full time and she has been an ultra active volunteer at the school... helping at excursions... story telling etc... you name it... she has done it all... my daughter receives excellent feedbacks from her teachers as well every term, and yet she was put on the wait list... so what does it take to get in? little einsteins? based on the acceptance results that i see, i find it really hard to believe that the school was picking students with a fair and just system... i am totally with you on the vsa mgmt and their acceptance policy... what a disappointment...

what irritates me the most is that some of these parents whose kid got accepted, are openly acknowledging that they actually consider vsa as a backup... i don't think they really appreciate nor believe in IB... the school should never have offered them a place...

anyway... that's life... nothing much we can do now... instead we will have to focus on finding another good school for our daughter and helping her to get ready for the interviews...

good luck to all parents!

VSA only announced that priority would be given to students who are siblings of children already attending VSA. But I also found that they like full time moms and mixed kids.

因為我何文田都有好多全職媽媽,至少我識嗰個佢囝囝都係waiting list,我又會諗佢會收咗深灣校D小朋友先然後再睇家庭背景及家長職業(因為有錢隨時搬都得嗰頭D樓又貴)最後就係小朋友表現!甚至waiting list 都有分先後啦!所以係冇公平嘅!我囡囡由PN班讀到家吓K2咁都唔收最失望係咁!

VSA is a good school with good hardware but we couldn't deny that they're also a set of business and they do have to keep their business running well.

My kid enrolled P1 for 2008 in the 2nd round application period last year but got no luck even we studied there since PN.  Since the school promised to accept all those who applied in the 1st round application period (no interview
was needed for this group but the condition was to sign an undertaking agreeing not applying any other schools including any private, DSS or any other schools), there're not many places left for the 2nd round applicants (because they have more than 200 enrolment in the 1st round).  Finally, seems there're only 10+ places offered to the 2nd round applicant with more than 100 applications.  The children were tested by both PTH and English (and as what some parents said here, those attending the Cantonese/English class of course hardly managed the PTH test).  I consider there's no point for them to invite those children in Cant/Eng class to attend the interview (since their chance was actually close to zero).  One thing that made me very angry was actually there're a lot of parents applying in the first round went to apply some other private schools and VSA didn't have any source to track it down (maybe we should blame on our silly honest to the school).

In this thread, I see that most of you are on the waitlist and I guess no one is rejected (since they have to make sure any vacancies will be replaced from those on waitlist for making sure their revenue).  Anyway, good luck to you all!

似乎新措施令很多一心想升讀維小的家長失望了。或許, 因為行IB、有靚靚新校舍, 及幼稚園多了分校的關係, 開始有僧多粥少的情況了。

this year's interview seems to put more emphasis on parents, my child said they were just playing in the classroom and prepare some drawings.

for parent's interview it is those usual questions like why you choose VSA, what is the child's usual activities at sat and sunday, where do your family normally go in holidays, but one friend could not answer what PYP is.

as its fee is quite high and their allocation record had been very good, there will be drop out after government's round of enrollement. so don't give up.

they have one special semina for k2 parents and one for all this two months, she did say a lot about admission issue. did anyone attend? I was always late, only hear half.

Which seminar?

The one at Shum wan (2 months ago), the main discussion are in those A4 papers, i.e. the timeline for applying, interveiw & paying the admission fees & deposits (if you were selected). They did let the VSA kids perform a show and you can listen their English & PTU levels. They said there're usu 5 classes (28-30 students each) and max 7 classes per year. But they haven't mention about the details of admission criteria (non the interview format), of course no schools will explicit tell that.

The second one (just recently) is really focussed on the application of all types of primary schools (private, DSS, etc). And Ms Koong said "it was like a lucky draw for her to admit the P1 from the kindergarten kids, since every kid is so pretty after all."

Have I miss any other?

I think this year they have many applicants since VSA's interview was held earlier than almost all the primary schools.  Some parents may treat this as an rehearsal.

When the child is got accepted, his parent is required to sign an undertaking letter which is quite harsh.  One condition is that the child has to give up applying any schools including particating in the central allocation.  If the school finds out that the child, who has submitted the signed undertaking letter , subseqnetly applies for other school, then VSA will withdraw the place.

Therefore I expect that some parents may give up the place when comes to signing the undertaking letter.  Don't worry too much.

我諗好多家長好似我一樣好安心以為VSA會一定收返佢D小朋友上P1所以喺維多利繼續讀埋K3點知人算不如天算!而家又要四圍撲小學!不過其他小學收生標凖同维多利亞不同!英文普通話一般傾講冇問題!但如果論寫字計數維記小朋友比較弱所以各位家長要給小朋友加緊練習!

作者: TomatoCat 時間: 08-7-11 17:37

There is no need for VSA to interview the students then.

Just ask the Class teacher who can speak Putonghua will do. Also, make sure they know which parents are celebrities or school committee members.

Also no need to have Eng/Cantonese classes in victoria, as they have no concern on Cantonese.

Such a "GOOD" school policy and mgt!

非常同意，學校叫我們去interview只係做show，有冇人知道教統回覆港同事件（如下），是否包括幼稚園升小一？

"教育局昨晚的回覆是：「一條龍學校（包括直資及私立學校），應有相同的教育理想；在課程、教學、學生個人發展等方面，都應該銜接，為學生提供連貫的學習經歷，以及做到真正的『不放棄任何一個學生』。故此，一條龍學校須全數收錄結龍小學的小六畢業生。」「而直資學校可根據校本需要，訂立適用於所有學生的升級／留級要求，並確保家長充分了解有關要求。」"

所以我覺得好唔公平，如果唔係直升，應該一早要同我們講，家長可能有唔同的選擇，學校係完全唔理人感受．

作者: TomDog 時間: 08-7-13 10:16

唔好咁無心機, 好多學校喜歡收維幼生的, 因為除左語文有一定程度之外, 維幼學生大多數合群純真開朗, 不怕表達和發問, 仲有好的家長tim。
唔係亂吹架, 真係知道d同學考出面小學鮮有一間都考唔到, 當然要報學校策略也很重要, 唔好淨係報埋d勁多人爭的spcc, St. Paul convent, DGS個類啦。
我囡囡都面試左5間, 有傳統有活動教學, 未聽佢講過有邊間考寫字同計數。
