眼見怪獸LS對小朋友身心折磨，雖然早左D, 我好認同IS理念, 想趁早認識下點樣為我三個小朋友做好入IS的準備 ....

我的家庭資料 :
- 大囡歲半, 今年9月入讀樓下CREATIVE PN (村校ONLY, 唔係KLT o個間), 貪佢夠近及 HAPPY SCHOOL
- 仲有弟妹，2個月大 (TWINS)
- 父親本地人英文流利 (接近NATIVE) ; 母親本地人英文比較差
- 3個入晒IS負擔好重,但節衣縮食都應該OKAY

想問 :
1) 好似大囡咁, 佢要入IS (ESF or others), 要係佢K3前英文操到咩程度 ? 簡單對答就okay ? 父母平時主要同佢講廣東話 (因相信應用母語訓練佢溝通能力), 但父親可以的話可以多跟她講ENG ; 家中有菲傭都係同佢講英文

2) 大囡佢要入IS, 係唔係要搵間谷英文的幼稚園才行 ? 村校CREATIVE HAPPY SCHOOL 唔okay ? 如果真係K1時要轉, o係港島應該讀邊間先好 ?

3a) 最平的IS是邊幾間 (包括 DEBENTURES, if any) ?

3b) 最易入的是那幾間 ?

4) 唔買幾十萬 DEBENTURES 就一定無機會入IS ?

5) DEBENTURES 大拿拿幾十萬 (3個夾埋百幾萬), 讀完可以redeem from school 嗎 ? 係唔係間間都可以re-sell/transfer 但易賣 / 有人買嗎 (同埋點樣搵買家) ?

6) Interview 時主要睇小朋友對答 ? 父可以用流利英文同老師溝通可加分 ?

7) 讀完小學, 如果唔係一條龍, 上中學物好麻煩又要搵過 ?

8) 完成IB後, 考入本地大學 (HKU / CU / UST etc) via non-Jupas 易嗎 ?

9) 讀完晒IB, 中文水平是怎樣 ? 說讀寫流利嗎 ?

不好意思好多問題, 麻煩晒各位 !

ESF同好多IS係讀完K2便升year one,等唔到k3;比個英語環境佢，IS kindergarten 最理想，但一日三個鐘唔一定足夠所以屋企也要加強。interview 英文係要浸出黎唔係谷出黎

1）大女應選擇int'l kinder
2) ESF相信是最化算的國際學校
3）為確保有面試機會，可考慮買$50萬的提名權，日後兩位twins就靠sibling関係

如果無被取錄呢，五十萬會否還俾你 ?

定係根本俾你買到五十萬就入硬 ?

先比五萬，呢的一定冇得攞返。如果收你又讀就比埋嗰四十五萬。如果唔得就收咗你五萬。

...

唔係呀，嗰五萬係如果fail左個assessment test會退返！係pass左個assessment test 但又唔accept 個offer先冇得退！

CC816, i like your thoroughness in your questioning. Here's my take:

1) To train bilingualism it is best to have one parent per language and not deviate from it (to your best effort). So the father can speak in English all the way. Never rely on Filipino English! Horrible accent & improper grammar!! The only good thing is that the kids can absorb the language while the Father converse with the helper. Beside speaking directly to the children, having English conversation around the household is important too.

2) Like what others said, the key is not 谷英文 but 浸英文, so you should be looking for expat kindergartens like Woodlands or Greenfield. They have plenty of branches on the HK Island. Set up playdates with English speaking friends also helps.

3a) Yup ESF, if they do not increase their fees in the near future, which they slowly would, unfortunately.

3b) but ESF Hillside kindergarten is impossible to get into, plus given the priority is now gone... You should apply anyhow; it's a lottery. I'd go to a quality expat Kindie if i were you.

4) For some schools, even if you want to buy a debenture it is in such a high demand that it is impossible to obtain one!

5) Really differs from school to school. You must target your schools before asking this question.

6) For most interviews, it mainly depends on the child. Some doesn't even interview the parents. For some, yes, if you can carry a good conversation with the interviewer the chance of getting in may increase. Again, this question is school specific.

7) Yup, aim for through-train schools as much as you can. I can foresee the competition at the secondary entry in a few years time will be quite fierce.

8) Sorry, our family does not aim for local universities so i cannot answer you there. Others please help, thx!

9) As long as you are aiming for IS, don't expect the child to have a high level of Chinese skills. How one trains the child in Chinese would involve lots of intelligence, effort & sometimes it depends on the child as well. From what i observe, most ESF & IS kids do not like Chinese, but there are exceptions.

Much obliged !!!

8) IB 入本港資助大學只會越來越難，多了lB學校競爭自然大了，三大收生主要看lB成績，這一兩年conditional offer 要求年年上升；另non jupas名額有上限，除了lB，還有A level同好似high diploma 學生都用non jupas申請入學。近日有評論說讀lB是入大學捷徑，要求政府檢討，我相信名額唔減少已偷笑，好難有得加。

還有蘇淅international stream. You may check it out. VSA is another good choice as it is a straight through school (primary to secondary). If you think your kids are academically strong, you may try Victoria kindergarten as the kids can go anywhere LS or IS.

For some IS like Canadian, it starts from K1. So you'd better do more research.

我都留意到有人直線、曲線地抹黑ESF, 原因大家應該估到。ESF 個waiting list 並唔會因為任何事而短左，一樣大把人想入。算啦，此等事喺BK LS版屬家常便飯

算吧！即有家長認為ESF 唔會教小朋友德育，IS小朋友德育方面特別優秀一樣！

Let's not be led astray by the drug issue and get off topic...
(please start a new thread if you are truly concerned, instead of hijacking this thread)

For Type409 and other parents:

Yes Canadian starts from K1, but with 40 spots only, usually taken by staff kids etc.; even parents with sibling priority have difficulties obtaining a spot. The mass intake is at K2 with 80 additional spots, so for parents who want to conserve application fees & energy, it is best to apply at K2.

Also, it is becoming more difficult for ppl without Canadian citizenship to even get an assessment (not to say a spot!), as there are more and more applications and the seats are taken by ppl with citizenship priority, so i guess the school sees no point in interviewing non-citizens... but then, if parents are really keen, it never hurts to try. This year i know at least one non-Cdn citizen getting in, who applied long long time ago.
