st paul boy for sure!

老牌名校, 多名人畢業生, 雖然academic上無以前咁好 (我只係聽說), 但你去見工, 老闆肯定對這校印象最深.

就算有打算去外國讀書, 也不一定選IB課程的中學.

我自己不喜歡小朋友讀男校或女校，所以一定不會選St Paul。

反而我會選蔡繼有，我喜歡學校辦學理念。

我自己都有報音小並取錄了, 但間程度淺, 少功課, 著重品德(但這間是後備, 如果其它唔收再諗讀5讀, 已比留位費, 買個保險).

其它不清楚

It is difficult to say which one is good, what you need is to choose one that suits your son and your expectation. You have to work out a 'wish list' first and see which one matches most to it.

維小 & 蔡繼有 are quite similar ( I have compared these two schools in various aspects). 音小 - I don't know much detail but understand that the students' conduct and behaviour are very good. St Paul Boys - I know a lot students there (past and present), this is a very traditional school.

我相信你除了從BK得到資料外，也要自己去去學校參觀開放日及簡介會，因為以我自己為例，我原本有一間首選學校，但去完簡介會及參考過其他資料後，該學校已被扣分，不再是首選了。

I went to St Paul Boys' to feel the atmosphere. I was disturbed by how lifeless the students appeared to be. Then I asked around and found their school work unusually heavy. I finally decided not to apply thou it is closest to my home.

my friend's son is studying at victoria and i ever attended his birthday party. most of the kids were rude and didn't know how to respect others. i will never consider to send my kids to study there as i believe the moral education is very important.

just personal opinion as i only met around 40 students at that party. don't

me!

維小 & 蔡繼有 are quite similar schools but I am more comfortable with 維小 cos mine is a boy. I remember I went to 蔡繼有 introductory seminar. Among the current students who did presentation. 5 out of 6 were girls. The only boy presented his material by looking at the floor. This is a sign of lacking confidence. So I think that the way 蔡繼有 educated kids did not work well on a boy.

However, I would have to admit that 蔡繼有 has trained up the girls very well in doing presentation in front of the crowd.

For 音小, I do not have too much information. But I had a very positive experience with a teacher from 音小. The violin teacher of my boy is a music teacher of 音小. My kid is not naughty, but he is definitely not an easy one. We switched 3 violin teachers for him in the last 2 years. And this teacher from 音小 is the only one who has the patience with kids and knows how to make my boy work on his violin.

For St. Paul Boys, I remember I went to the school a year ago. The school is more traditonal than what I thought. It seems to me that the school has been following the same tradition for a hundred years without any change which I think is not good in a ever-changing world. :;pppp:

Hope this helps.

Cheers

As far as I know, there are not enough seats in VSA for all VK students. So they would still need to interview all applied VK students for selection and there's still quite a competition.

Besides, I was told that they accepted a small number of non-VK students every year. So I think it's a bit like St Paul Convent in that aspect.

Cheers

ha I knew someone would misread my words cos these two schools are really not alike in most aspects. I did not say VSA=St Paul Convent. Actually, if you read my sentences carefully. I was talking about accepting a small number of students from other kindergartens. Both schools seem to use this same approach.

Hope it is clear.

Cheers

07/08有177位VK揀升讀VSA，但08/09只有104位VK揀升讀(不過還有些在開學不久後選擇了退學)，因為08/09大部份比了Deposit的家長都是把VSA做back-up，只要有其他offer(即使係二線學校)，都會選擇放棄VSA個offer(寧願損失17,000-18,000的Deposit)，08/09的first round的確收得唔多，但後來太多人放棄，VSA有了08/09的經驗，因此今年09/10的first round，只要VK肯去VSA interview，相信都會收(因未聽過有唔收，有錯請指正)，不過今次要比$21,900的Deposit，可能VSA覺得留唔住個人，都可以留住D錢,!

“中文(普通話)及英文都有一定的水準” – 相信廣東話都一樣有一定的水準，因為學生課外全用廣東話溝通!

朋友的小朋友在VSA讀，朋友經常批評VSA，問她為什麼唔幫小朋友轉校，她答話試過了，不過冇學校肯收！

有位VK老師的小朋友轉入VSA讀，現已讀了幾年，但仍須要私人補習普通話和英文，因此我知道為何常聽到有人說VSA中又唔得，英又唔得，半天吊!

本人兩位小朋友都在08/09和09/10放棄了VSA個offer!

Letter of Confirmation 內容過這樣說 “a cheque postdated May 27th 2010 for $7,300……….. should accompany the Acceptance…………, the above payment will forfeited if the placement offered is not accepted in September 2010. A Depost…$14,600 must be paid on or by Dec 1st 2009.

“如12月唔讀可攞返張票” – 見唔到咁講!

這個問題我曾在BK問過意見，好唔好先比了$7,300，到Dec 1st 2009前決定唔讀就stop payment，但BK mum的意見係Dec 1st 2009後小朋友仍在VK讀緊K3，那樣會好難面對學校!

還有些學校會在Dec 1st 2009前未有最後結果(包括second in)，eg. DGJS, St Stephen, SPCCPS etc.

“想問問其實你係咪讀梗維小” - 本人兩位小朋友都在08/09和09/10放棄了VSA個offer!

不過我覺得妳先要了解妳小朋友的性格，再幫他揀間適合他的學校，因為CKY，VSA，St Paul Boy，ICQM都係好唔同嘅學校!

"07/08有177位VK揀升讀VSA，但08/09只有104位VK揀.."

In 07/08, the School promised that once you had signed the undertaking letter, your kid would get a seat. Eventually, 177 No (may be slightly more than that) did it. Given the promise, the School had to arrange 7 classes (instead of the usual 5 classes). You can easily verify this fact since only P.2 (the 07/08 group) has 7 classes. The School said that they could only keep 5 classes in each grade, that's why the number drops a lot in 08/09. Merely comparing these two numbers is meaningless.

mcheung1 - It seems that you are much concerned with the standard of Chinese language. For your information, in VSA, they have employed consultant from Mainland to look after this aspect. For P.1 and P.2 (I don't know those in upper grades), Chinese textbooks are specially written to tie in with the Unit of Inquiry. Better quality materials are borrrowed and used. I find that the Chinese teachers are good. In fact, I am very concerned about the Chinese standard of a School too, especially in Primary School.

維小和蔡繼有，課程好接近，但會把學校與家居的距離也計算嗎？
音小好著重音樂，而宗教氣氛是特濃，聽講開家校會前是要祈禱那種，有相同宗教的會較自在．
ｓｔ　ｐａｕｌ’ｓ　ｂｏｙ完全是另一種，傳統男校．
有朋友曾問我，會報維小和ｃｋｙ嗎？　我因家在九龍，仔仔ｋ２時曾想過只會報ｃｋｙ．

For primary years' students, I find that their conduct and behaviour are good.  They are kind and polite.  But many of them are talkative, like my son who never stops asking questions and eager to tell everyone what happened in the school.  I share with you some experience I have there.

(1)  On the fun day last year, we went to the school.  One of the games is about challenging P.6 boys, basically it is playing ball games with P.6 boys.  My son is not good at ball games but he wanted to get a house point.  So he played but lost all the time.  The P.6 boys were patient and let my son played one or two more times until he managed to get the ball entering into the bucket.  My husband and I were very impressed by the P.6 boys's way they treat lower grades' boys.
(2) In one occasion, I went to pick up my son for participating in the music festival.  That was an unusual time for picking up students.  I waited at the corridor since the class had not finished.  Some students went by and asked me if anything they could help.  I am impressed by the courage they have to a stranger.

For secondary students, many of them come from outside school, I still have  reservation.

Hope this helps.
