my son got acceptance letter in K3, is it a good school? any comment?

作者: 可愛小肥媽 時間: 11-3-22 09:05

I visited that school before. The teachers seems caring and I saw a few kids studying there look happy. However, they are not following IB system which make me have a little bit concern of the future path.
Also, they will have 1 more K3 class in the coming acedamic year but they cannot confirm if they have 1 more P1 class for the following year. That means those K3 kids may not all directly go into the P1 class.

Yes, I totally agreed with you.

They are running International Primary Curriculum and there are only 1000 schools joined this program across the world!

I heard from teachers saying that there were two kids given offered by RC this year.

Playing is fun but I am not sure whether students will be competitive ...

any parents have experience to share?

The point is, we are living in Kln side but there is no transport from our home to Tai Po.

If we accept the offer, we have to move before August and employee a maid to take care of my boy

(my mum is helping me to take of him now so I have to move house, employ a maid and take almost 3 hours to and from office!)

I am still struggling, any advice?

Do they teach mandarin?

作者: alunsweeney 時間: 11-4-6 22:10

每天都有中文課。
本地香港學生會讀本地中文，鬼仔/外國小朋友會讀淺一d中文。
此網頁很有用，http://www.generations.edu.hk/about-us/overview。原來他們打算明年在香港島開新小學。太好了。
上帝的工場又多一所!!! 我上次打去問校巴司機，他說nis的學生比起esf純好多。

究竟, ipc出來的學生，競爭力又會如何? 英文的程度又如何?

作者: crystalpui 時間: 11-4-7 11:33

請問在港島建小學是CONFIRM了的事嗎?
因為我很想小朋友讀基督教的國際學校
而NIS又是學費我能負擔的一間

作者: crystalpui 時間: 11-4-7 11:42

頭先打去SWCK問
原來係跟小朋友出世日子去排隊
咁我小朋友可能入唔到了
一班得收20個小朋友
AM/PM加埋得40個小朋友

NIS kindergarten is indeed a good school. My son is studying K3 there. He just joined the school last August. He loves the school much much more than ESF. I think the reasons are:
1. the smaller class size (15 students/class) - each student got teacher's attention. Everybody got a chance to perform on stage to celebrate Christmas. Everybody's name is recognized. Everybody's birthday is celebrated... the whole school sings happy bday song together.

2. the outdoor playground is amazing. You've got to see it for yourself.

3. the everyday morning praise session is one of the children's and parents' favourites. Everybody including teachers, children AND parents sing songs and pray every morning. At times, depending on IPC topics being discussed, professionals are invited to talk to children. Last time, people came in to show different animals to the children. Parents were also invited to introduce their jobs.

4. Children do have weekly homework assignments (if they cannot finish them in school). The school teaches traditional Chinese characters in Mandarin and the curriculum is around daily life experience. And starting in second term of K3, students started simple but interesting reading comprehension using Oxford Reading Tree series. Students have to write weekly journal (English) as well... very simple, just one or two sentences. For Maths, K3 is now learning subtraction.

5. K3 is a full-day class. Children get to learn to be independent... manage to have lunch, snack, take a nap, and play at recess time.

6. No Cantonese is allowed in school. I once talked in Cantonese in school and a kid said to me "English, please." Children communicate in English to one another even outside school.

今年7月2歲啦
我對kcis同swck都有興趣
如果swck係香港島有直升小學, 我會十分希望我女可以讀swck

不過swck係計年齡月份來收生要足2歲8個月先有得in
我想我女未必入到

不過, 我希望kcis同swck事但一間收我女
我為左佢
住沙田都ok

hi reneeleung

我其實最想入ESF, 因為佢分校多, 而KENNEDY SCHOOL近我家
但因為ESF KINDER唔一定會入得返PRIMARY, 所以我KINDER唔會考ESF了

我係我BB一歲時已報左SWCK同KCIS
我心中想入KCIS多少少
因為係港島區而有PRIMARY直升

但SWCK我其實都好想俾我小朋友讀
因為佢係基督教背景, 但NIS係大埔
如果讀NIS就一定要搬
我想沙田吧
如果NIS有中/小學係港島區
咁就太好了
不過SWCK我女可能讀唔到
我女係7月BB,
只要09年早過我女出世而有40個人讀SWCK
咁就收唔到我女了.....

我都很欣賞這所學校, 但有些地方不是很了解, 請問各位可以分享一些這校的資料嗎?
有校巴來往沙田、大圍、大埔嗎?
k1至k2有普通話學嗎?
k3的中文程度如何呢?

作者: alunsweeney 時間: 11-4-20 20:26

我問過學校的秘書，她說校巴只在沙田、tai po, ma on shan及某些新界地方有pick up 點。
我又打過去學校經營的校巴公司，司機說他們最多去到沙田，tai wai都不會去，因此九龍地區都不要問，幾多錢都不做。
學校秘書小姐說，校長會在今年轉校巴公司，現在都在收緊學生，因此不知道來年的校巴安排。

各位好, 我見NIS個網站話2000年開始推行IPC, 咁請問大家知不知這十年間, 即由2000至2010年間的學生現在哪裡升學呢? 如在香港, 是哪些學校? 如在海外, 是哪些國家?
會有這些資料參考嗎? 謝謝!

ipc 比起ib認受性真是少很多，如何大家去過ipc的網頁的話，會更清楚，好像來來去去都是很英國人用。
nis的校長說，有2位小朋友考了rc中學。

ipc比ib一定少好多學校用。

我的朋友對我說，nis老師都幾好只是流失很大，學校行政麻麻地，真的嗎？

作者: moominchan 時間: 11-4-22 18:47

我都打咗去問咗d 資料，佢地話ｋ１至ｋ３都有普通話學，大約每天30至40分鐘。k2下學期開始教寫字。
幼稚園的上學時間是上午8:45至11:45。k3是返全日的。

作者: alunsweeney 時間: 11-4-22 20:50 標題: 回覆 1# moominchan 的文章

校長說考到rc的兩位學生是取得schoolarship的。

k3有2班，一年級都會開2班，今年(9月)學校仲有位wor!

作者: moominchan 時間: 11-4-26 23:15

有冇人打算報今年NIS的summer program？一起交報名表有15% discount。有興趣不如大家在私人訊息裡聯絡。

作者: alunsweeney 時間: 11-5-8 22:39

香港的小學, 他們說尚在申請中，等待教育局的批准。如批准了，他們便可找學校辦學，如果他們在hk island有小學, 一定很受家長歡迎。

基督教的國際學校在香港只有3間，多一間便是好事。

完成了小學後, 有些人會考出面的學校，有些會入去沙頭角國際學校。校長 john luk 說他們有計劃申請中學，以下是更多資料。(在學校網頁找的)

The Norwegian International School (NIS) currently offers playgroup, kindergarten and primary education up to Grade 6 (equivalent to Year 7 in the ESF school system). We see a need in Hong Kong for more international secondary school places. For many years it has been the wish of our parents to have their children continue secondary education at NIS which would build on from the unique education approach of our primary school. As such our school has begun looking at the possibility of extending a secondary class.

This endeavour requires the support of the wider community. We invite all parents who are interested in keeping up-to-date with our development of the secondary school to leave their contact information by completing the form below to receive periodic newsletters. In addition we would welcome any enquiries and comments you have regarding our vision for a secondary school.

我只知他們教繁體中文的。

作者: alunsweeney 時間: 11-6-12 22:46

因為地方太遠，差不多give up 個k3位...

沒有校巴, 點帶個小朋友由九龍去tai po再去香港工作呀....

為小朋友找學校的壓力真是大都自己都不信...

不過, 都要為自己想下，因為太遠, 真係都不都...都不來..

作者: alunsweeney 時間: 11-6-15 22:28

I am very surprised to know that the principal of NIS, John Luk will leave the school after this month.

anyone know the story behind the scene?

作者: MKS 時間: 11-6-16 11:42

alunsweeney, how do you know the principal of NIS is leaving??

作者: alunsweeney 時間: 11-6-16 13:22

I joined a group in the facebook and got a message saying that there will be a farewell for him at the end of June.

作者: MKS 時間: 11-6-16 16:28

Oh.. I see I see

I like this school very much... now my son is in waiting list for K2. And i will apply for K3 in 2012/13.
