請大家分享一下，讀緊的家長對中學部有信心嗎？又想一條龍，又怕....... 星期五就要決定了，真喺兩難

i like smc, 因為我buy 小班教學

not many school can achieve this. the reason having a smaller class size is becos they can focus on the kids better, and each student can get the attention and the individual care needed, and hopefully it could leads to a more effective learning experience.

SMC secondary is not the best, but improved more.
S1 & S2 come from primary section, the level of standard is better.
On the other hand, if kids ok, you can knock the door.
Belive yourself, belive school

I have no regret to have my girl give up seat in TSL and joined SMC 2 years ago

作者: gigiyikyik 時間: 12-7-4 23:12

囡囡今年P.1,隔離型都有同學係GIVE UP咗TSL而讀SMC~

作者: biffkwok 時間: 12-7-4 23:23

如果抽離D看，齋睇小學部，大家覺得SMC有甚麼比TSL優越，令你願意give up後者？

作者: sampapa 時間: 12-7-5 08:22

3 years ago, I give up TSL, choice SMC.
The reason is less pressure & workload. Happy school life.
P1 & P2 is 6 kids in ONE round table.
Now is P3, It is a little training or excise for TSA.
Daily reading hour is 2 or 3 hour. It is main workload of my kid.

I also gave up TSL for SMC. It was a hard decision as most people around me liked TSL. They thought I was silly to give up a "dream school" for the main group of parents.

But I like the language environment, smaller class size, more NET, start using Mandarin to teach Chinese since P1 (same as her kindergarten)...

Till now, I think my choice is the correct one. My daughter loves SMC.

Of course TSL is a good school too. Its swimming pool and the theater are attractive. They would have a big musical production every year!

however, I feel the style of the students in both school are different.

睇見身邊的朋友為了成績排名而緊張(當然, 小朋友亦不會好過), 我慶幸自己揀了一條龍

(囡囡考唔到TSL, 但當年亦有另一間直資在手.).

Me too , similar to u all, we have been contemplating in the last 4 months every single day my mind was thinking smc or cky , cky or smc ... I really wish that we have made a final right decision !! Really looking forward to the 12 years ahead !!

作者: kschow 時間: 12-7-5 17:29

Hi! Wallpaper, do you remember me? My son and yours got the offer at the same time last year.

Similar to you, we got offer from CKY too, and we finally chose SMC.

Look forwards to new school life! And I wish we have a chance to meet this Sat.

Cheers!

作者: Laputa 時間: 12-7-5 22:38

So coming P.1 parents and students will attend this sat's variety show? That's really lovely. The show is not big production like the musical by TSL or CKY, but you can feel each students are trying to do their best. And the good thing is the school not just pick school teams to perform, but they held an audition and encourage student to participate and show their talents. There will be champion teams performing their winning English dramas, there will be singing, dancing, speech. . . hope you would enjoy the show and next year your children will be performing on the stage.

作者: kschow 時間: 12-7-5 23:20

Yes. We will come to watch the show and order uniforms and books as well.

We have been waiting it for a long time

we gave up TSL, SFA, KTS(waiting) and chose SMC, my kid is current P1 student.
Reasons:
1. NET and EMI every day, no need for English class after school.
2. Small class, kids have many chances to build up confidence, they were encouraged to join speech festival while other school prohibited their students to join without their permission.
3. Talent classes has providing different kinds of activities exposure and discovered their potential talent.
4. Foreign languages really had offering a taste of each language study and provide continuous study in P3 up to secondary study after trial (better than TSL), language resources in school library are rich. Further overseas study tour were attractive ( I read the briefing slide this year) though my kid is not yet qualified for participation.
5. Really less pressure than SFA, homework load not heavy.
6. As I observed, many parents paid many effort for training up their kids and all kids are smart. That means our kids are keeping in good study atmosphere, when they are promoting to S1, same batch of kids bear similar standard. If we have doubt about secondary school that means we have doubt in our kids.

下星期好似係升中放榜, 呢代都甘大競爭, 到我地果代, 個個小朋友都好學甘多野, 又越來越出色, 所以有間中學BACK UP 我會放心D, 而且同一校舍, 歸屬感大D, 中學係小朋友很重要階段啊!

作者: Lynn 時間: 12-7-13 13:59

I just wanted to share one thing from my girl's class. About one month ago, my daughter got her exam papers back, I asked her why one of the exam papers changes the marks (losing some marks). She told me she found the teacher overlook her mistakes so she told the teacher and that's why she was deducted more points. I told her that I am proud of her for being so honest. She told me that there is nothing to be proud because all her classmates will do the same. They are as honest as her, nothing especial!

Now, I am really proud of the school and all her classmates!

當然希望小朋友有happy school life, 但之後考大學會唔會唔夠競爭力呢?

作者: hadwinboy 時間: 13-1-18 17:56

Happy school life 唔等於唔需要上堂, 唔需要溫書考試. 日日返學玩冇野做. 我覺得Happy school life 只是在一個不墳鴨, 不摧谷,不教高一級的環境下學習. 而學校除了學術方面, 同一時間提供多元化的環境給學生, 使學生能有多方面的發展(即全人發展). 況且, 讀書, 尤其上到中學, 是靠自己的了. 考大學, 更應該是個小朋友令到自己夠競爭力, 而不是父母及學校. 我當年, 畢業於SSGC, 名校唎掛, 我考一次Toefl 便取到6百幾分入大學. 我個同班同學, 考了5次才考到. 所以, 幫小朋友搵到間中上的學校, 校風好的, 其他便不需要擔憂太多.

作者: WillBmama 時間: 13-1-18 19:17 標題: 回覆：SMC Vs TSL - 如果比你再揀一次的話

我都唔想小朋友填鴨，我諗一條龍對孩子及家長都無咁大壓力,而且見到SMC學生都幾純樸，所以覺得SMC應該唔錯。不過SMC而家名氣同中學banding又唔係咁高，希望佢有潛質去到更高。

作者: chiyoching 時間: 13-1-18 22:15

我都係咁唸, 而且學校都肯投放資源建新樓,又有泳池,外籍老師多, 我唸前景都不會太差啩!

作者: sugarnana 時間: 13-2-1 15:39 標題: 回覆：chiyoching 的帖子

聽聞SMC會有擴建，請問擴建後會増加了什麼設施？謝謝

作者: chiyoching 時間: 13-2-1 19:20

加建一座新翼大樓, 並且有泳池添!

大家請加入學費問題，以往三年都没有加價，但今年小一收少20人，及少了中七數十人，所以今年加了6%學費，而建校及增加設施都要$，我估計未來的每學年都會有5%調整。
這是我個人估算的，沒有任何文件支持的。不要當真。

收到 offer 後簽了封信，其中一點是關於捐款. 學校是否有很多籌款活動的，每次捐款要大約幾多?

絕對没有要為面子或强迫性捐款。全部是自願的，就算為面子捐款，每年所有不同名目的捐款項目不多於四百元
五天便服日共100,慈善競技日所有項目共200,才華表演共100.有些可扣除税。
家教會的慈善手工藝，義賣，節日活動。全部可以不参加的，而且以攤位形式作為活動，那些人有没有參加完全没有任何形式記錄。

More than that. Raffle Ticket Sales - each student was given 50 tickets ($10 each). I was told the class teacher did ask the students better to sell at least half of them.

The teachers will remind students to bring money for joining those activities though you may choose to ignore it. But what will the kids think when most if not everyone around choose to join. How can a little boy/girl resist the temptation of snack and toys? So, when donation activities come one after another, the invisible pressure is there.

獎券每年我都會買三幾張, 但從無被要求買某個數量喎. 至於啲義買, 學校會出通告要求家長給予小朋友不多於$20(如無記錯), 我覺得可以接受. 整體而言, 我唔覺學校就該等捐款活動給予我壓力^^

我也真的希望沒有這種情況，明年我也將效法閣下的做法。其實，如果是有意義並且有清晰目標的籌款活動，每年搞一、兩項就夠了，頻密而五花八門反為不美。
