My daughter had attended the interview in SFA on today. After the interview, I asked her what sorts of question the teacher had asked. She told me that she had to draw a picture and performed direct interview with teacher by English, cantonese and PTH. She also had to write the answers on the paper after listening some likely a English story or sentences. Is it true to all kids?
please discuss because it is not supposed to have any written tests by the primary school postulated by the Education Department.
Is it allowed to do like that?
welcome any comment
thanks

我個女話有叫drawing,英文個到係叫佢地聽完story就tick A,B,C or D,無要寫字

It's not a written test...

They have a listening test but just tick answers as what BBR said. For math, they just need to tell the answer to teacher, no need to write.

我個女都係咁講,佢話唔駛寫字,多數老師問佢地答,最多都係選擇題tick ABCD

After the kids listening, they had to write down or tick the answer. If you did not tick the answer, how could you answer the questions or paper. Could you ask the teacher to help ticking the answer for them? Anyway, just discussed and don't worried.

佢地係有paper比佢地,一張中文要佢地畫畫(佢話中文都有要tick答案),一張英文要佢地tick abcd, 計數就小朋友行去老師到老師問佢地一題加數,不過唔駛寫答案,老師問佢地答,所以如果話有written咁就係"tick" abcd唔知算唔算,因為個女話全程一個字都唔駛寫,只"tick",咁我個人認為如果唔係"寫字"只畫個"tick"我就唔覺得係written

(個人覺得)不過對一個4歲幾5歲小朋友就可能深左D

我諗可能一日要in哂所以費事每一題都個人問所以叫佢地畫tick(咁你又吹佢地唔脹,因為教署係話左唔可以有writing test,咁佢地"畫"tick算唔算係writing呢?咁就真係見仁見智,但教署又吹佢唔脹,因為學校可能覺得畫"tick"即係當畫圖畫,佢地只不過叫小朋友畫個符號响對的答案到,又無要求佢地"寫"個答案

,完全係取巧,因為教署只係話唔可以考/叫小朋友寫字,有D學校要小朋友寫名咁又算唔算係writing test?)
無論點,其實我都覺得D小朋友好叻,我地要考這間學校唯有接受佢地的方式

我個囡話, 要填寫自己個名, 中文同英文都要
例如李大文.. 中文係李__ __, 英文係 ___ dai ___
另外就係做worksheet, 包括1版英文listening, 答案tick a,b,c,d, 及另1版中文(佢吾記得內容)
跟住面見老師, 老師問中文同英文..同埋要按老師指示讀出中文生字及英文句子.. 跟住問埋數學 (8-7=?)
睇黎都幾難入!!

作者: BBR 時間: 08-10-27 11:53

我問個女要唔要寫名佢話唔駛,佢話老師話唔駛寫名,全部小朋友都唔駛寫名喎

無報這間,我報左7,8間左右,重有兩間就in完,不過預左唔收,因為佢係細女,有D怕羞,等個女小1拎張成績表叩門,因為佢D成績都ok,前3名應該無問題

If it is a good school, don't worry about the environment, as I believe most of the parents will let their children take the school bus, if so, there's nothing to do with it....

我第一round冇揀協恩呀, 因為得15分, 實冇機啦

作者: leunglokyiu 時間: 08-10-28 09:31

我本來都覺得聖芳濟各係女拔後first choice.但果日in完kts, 又覺得kts都吾差喎, 佢公佈2008年派位都幾好. (當然冇sfa咁好啦), 但如果亞囡在kts考前10名, 派番協恩或女拔都應該ok
不過kts貴過sfa成1萬蚊1年...但學校環境又靚好多 ..唉.. 收左再唸啦!!

作者: authenticseelai 時間: 08-10-28 17:43

I haven't applied this school for my child (simply because I coudn't bear too many).

But I have no odd feeling about the interview format of this school,

--this is a private school, not a gov't subsided school, it can have its own preference; for me, the Edu Dept. can only advise, not order the school

--as from the others sharing, this is not a written test, in my opinion; even everyday homework in most K3 requires more than writing ABC

--This school's syllabus is a bit more difficult than average, as comment by many; the questions asked in the interview suit its style and requirment; more difficult questions immediately help the school screen out its target group; different formats of interview will screen out different candidates; the school is only looking for its desired candidates; nothing wrong

Dear all,

Please advise if Putonghua was asked during the interview. My daughter said no but I wonder if it is true.

Hello all moms.

let me share the experience as my daughter is studying in this SFA also.

From the first day of applying this school, you should know that they are above the average of other schools as it is a private school and most of the girls and boys can get a good secondary school after P6.

I can say they are really harsh and if you are studying in those enjoyable kinder, you may find difficult when you first enter the P1.

lots of exam and test and dict and also they are teaching very fast.

but if you can workout for the first year, then P2 will be better because you have already adapt to it.
there is some students fail to go to P2 so u better make sure yr kids pass in eng, chi and maths.

but if you fail in the first round, they allow you to join the second round after the announcement of lucky draw, but u didn't join the first interview, they won't consider u after the lucky draw.

so if i were u , even fail in first round, please send letter to them after the lucky draw if u still want to get the seat in this school, they will consider u if your kids academic result is good and also have some awards in any activities.

good luck to all of you and I trust you will satisfy with this school if your kid study here. (but of course u will have alot of complains on the heavy workload too)

Hi Bau,
Thanks for your information.
Can you also share how's the conduct of students and how are the teachers in SFA? Some parents said SFA focus too much on study therefore conduct of students are not very good.

Hi, Bau,

多謝你詳細嘅解釋. 雖然未知囝囝能否考入這所學校, 但係我都想知道學校內的老師是怎樣的? 是否有愛心? 學校同家長嘅溝通? 學校的透明度? 而其他學生的品行? 禮貌?

作者: hinhinmami 時間: 08-11-4 09:16

Hello, Bau, thank you for your sharing. You said if candidates failed in the first round of SFA's entrance exam, they could send letter to SFA after the lucky draw to request for another chance. Do you mean the lucky draw in June or the 第一輪自行派位in November? And does SFA prefer 大仔/女? If yes, I think my son's chance is low as he is 細仔:(

作者: FungMm 時間: 08-11-4 09:29

Hi all,

Just call to SFA, she said you will received the acceptance letter on or before 14 Nov (no letter means failure).

If you kid is accepted, the letter is lost by mail. The school will not announced the result through internet. So how can we know if the kid is accpeted. Go to the school and see the result posted on the board. Waste of time if the kid is failed. I can't remember whether the school took 2 self-addressed envelopes from us. If yes, the school should inform the failed applicant through mail. Poor arrangement!

you should call the school after the second round lucky draw becoz some applicants may give up the seats if they get the good subsidise school like la salle, maryknoll...etc

btw, my daughter love going to school even there are lots of hw and test. I feel the teachers there are good to the kids as they are doing lots to upgrade them, you can see they make alot of worksheets for the kids.

there is a mom saying her daughter got a seat in Maryknoll P2 after studied 1 yr in SFA, but her daugher didn't want to go to Maryknoll after studying a short period of time because it was too easy compare with SFA. She then returned to SFA and quit Maryknoll. but her daughter is now in secondary school also in Maryknoll, she was admitted in maryknoll and st paul convent but since maryknoll is free, so she pick maryknoll. I am sure if your kids can catch up the school, they can get a good secondary school and no need to worry.

since the school is having exam next week, I am busy busy now, let's share my experience later when I have time. don't worry too much la
