Why ?
Our son studied there for PN last year but we didn't like it at all.
The material is too difficult (in my opinion) for the kid's age.  Also, the teachers aren't that caring.  The classroom is small and lots of kids get sick.  We thought the language environment was good before joining but it was just average at best.  Also, they over-discipline (in my opinion).

Our son transferred to another school for PN this year and is much much happier.

Yes.
I understand teaching kids the basic discipline but they over-do it by a mile in my opinion.

I understand teaching them to lineup but is it really necessary to draw lines on the floor to make them walk on the lines only?

I understand the concept of remaining focus but is it necessary to punish the kids for not sitting still, with both hands on the knees / laps, for the whole story time?

Is it really necessary to make the kids put their hands on their backs whenever they walk?

Their so called discipline teaching is killing kids' confidence and interest to learn.

Again, just my opinions only.

Our kid is much more outgoing, confident, and happy after transferring to another school this year.

課程設計可以係open day 自己衡量,始終深同淺每人定義不同,因為pn開始派字咭,只係給予文字概念,但有部分家長認為pn要"認"字係谷,當然亦有部分家長認為pn接觸文字無問題,所以最好自己睇下。
整個幼稚園課程由pn開始到k3,主題不繼重覆,一步一步深化。
老師方面,我認為非常有愛心,亦係由心出發去關愛小朋友。
規矩會隨年級增長加緊,pn好寬鬆到k2要學懂坐好及舉手發問。相比國際學校一定嚴謹但相對傳統又比較寬鬆,因為活動教學,小朋友較多走動。
肯定既係課程涵接小一無問題,中英數程度足以應付,當然無free lunch, 要付出先有收穫。
作為畢業生家長,我唔會用好谷去形容,始終無測驗考試只有默書和課堂評估。但好輕鬆又唔算。
了解學校方針好重要,無謂錯配。
細女都係今年報pn, 希望入得返學之園,我都好掛住班老師。

無需太在意,有時係觀點與角度問題。
我理解地下唔同顏色既線只係引導小朋友返自己班房。廁所門口既線分男女排好,無線引導小朋友會堆埋一堆堆,入門口會撞。
我做過好幾次故事媽媽,小朋友坐好手放大腿只能維持幾分鐘,之後坐得唔好老師提醒坐正,始終有d小朋友會搖凳。但幾年來未見過由故事開始到結束坐得直直的小朋友,因為他們太愛發問,不停舉手陏來陏去……
手擺後面係對老師校長打招呼先做,並非由朝到晚都係。可能我老土,我着重尊師重道,打招呼時立正,我好認同。

當然每人對學校的要求不同,所以有唔同類型學校可以選擇,最重要適合自己既理念。

同意!尊師重道有紀律好緊要。課程我不想評論,小朋友每個能力不同,我小朋友暫時應付得到。老師非常有愛心非常識教小朋友。有一點我幾意外既係佢好著重平衡發展同品德。唔係一未谷!況且我覺得唔谷,只係簡單認字,唱歌,學phonics ...認既字都係日常生活既字如「日月女男人水」

課堂做好多大小肌肉訓練,教你行樓梯,跳,開杯蓋,噴畫,做勞作,真係好難話佢谷,但唔係淺

Agreed.
I don't see the point of making kids putting their hands on their laps when they are sitting down (even adults won't do that).  I also don't see the point of putting the hands at the backs when walking (do we do that as adults?).

As an example:  they were asking my son's class to color a boat.  The teachers wanted the kids to paint the top part in green and the bottom part in brown.  Then my son wanted to paint the whole boat in brown.  The teacher punished him for 'not following order' and then called us to complain!  Should kids be allowed to explore and express their ideas?  What's wrong with choosing the color he wanted?  If this is the kind of discipline and obedience they are looking for, then I am sorry I truly don't know how to appreciate it.

有一年家長會我同孩子class NET 討論過坐姿問題,老師之前一直在外國任教,佢亦直說當發現要如此坐很奇怪,最佳聽故事應坐在地上放鬆去聽隨意發問,同時亦明白小朋友將要玩小一遊戲,禮儀係其中重要一環,無奈接受。
幾年來該位老師, 係我最喜愛的老師,但眼見佢亦係其他家長批評最多既老師,投訴聲線小,囗形不夠誇張,唔夠嚴格……一年後老師亦離職回國。

之後的家長講座亦有提及坐姿問題,對孩子說"坐好"太空泛,如何去define "好"。 具體指示引導孩子理解,而學校選擇手放大腿。

如何坐最好?我亦喜歡隨心地而坐,當然亦明白到考小學時,"坐好"對孩子的重要。

I think if the whole purpose of learning and the direction is 'to prepare for primary school interview', then something is seriously wrong.

當然可以站在道德高地大聲疾呼,求學不是求分數,幼園並非為考小一。但幾多人可以選擇逃離小一制度。當唔夠分,唔想將運命放在抽獎,唔想讀國際學校,考直私係唯一出路。當大部分直私口說只着重禮貌,現實考串字重組句子時,就明白幼園為何如此。

True and agree, the whole school system is making every parent nervous and put away the whole point of early childhood learning. I believe, just I believe we need our child to be creative and have a happy childhood by letting them play and the real learning should come at age 4, 5,. Not in the PN age. I have an experiences with Cannon playgroup while my son was just 16 months, they ask my son to sit quietly and cannot get the toys til the teachers let u. The teacher told me they train the kid for school interview as the main goal . And told me if I m not comfortable with this kind of environment u would better go to international school.
It just gives me a feeling that they are running a business rather than education .

I always believe Chinese people are very smart.
But this kind of teaching method is killing everyone's creativity (that's one of the reasons why Chinese are copycats, very good at it by the way, but can rarely bring along their ideas or be creative).  We can only do what we are told but cannot build in our own ideas.

呢個係香港社會既問題,唔可以只係話幼稚園問題。讀唔起國際學校,就要玩同一個遊戲,大家都係面對現實!有邊間可以真正咁冇限制,個個創意無限?

另外我小朋友都係讀學之園PN,佢油畫亂來都冇比罰亦冇投訴。你個case好特別。坐好係考小學基本要求,接受唔到就可能要讀國際學校。但LH 冇要求你全程唔郁,反而係應玩則玩。

That's one of the reasons why more and more local kids are in the international schools now.
Another concern we have regarding LH is that they stress a lot on academic.

During the last parents meeting of the term, the principal told the parents to 'get ready and do not relax during the summer holidays'.  And the principal stressed that the years after would be even more tougher.  Get prepared not to give too much time for your kids to play and get ready to study with your kids more.  They will setup courses on Saturdays for kids to attend too.

That's exactly what the principal said to us and it was driving us crazy!

We are not angry at all.  We just don't appreciate their over-discipline method of teaching and the whole direction of the school.  We feel like the school messed up our kid last year so badly (he cried for 3 months and didn't talk in school for almost 6 months).
This year he is slowly getting back to normal after 3 weeks in the new school (he enjoys and talks to teachers and classmates and wants to go to school on Saturdays and Sundays also).

There is no right or wrong in teaching a kid, is just about weather the parent accept the local famous kindergarten method. I know that many parents like the LH method and prefer more discipline and academic over free time and play in school.

我小朋友讀了學之園4年,剛剛7月才畢業。小伙子在畢業前哭訴話唔捨得學校。老師們真的好好,幾天前我才收到她的電話問小朋友小一適唔適應,還叫我們OPEN DAY返去見面。

每個家長對自己小朋友的要求都會唔同,我覺得聽老師講守紀律係應該,沒有紀律同大陸人有咩分別。其實學之園對小朋友紀律要求只是好基本,聽從指令我覺得係小朋友應該學嘅野,玩的時間小朋友可以任意發揮,小朋友喜歡觀察由得佢觀察,唔好阻住佢,我絕對同意。但當老師有正式要求時,任由小朋友ignore,係唔係一件好事呢?

我老公唔係本地人,考慮左好耐因為中文緊要所以捨棄國際學校。

身教係好重要,但如果學校同自己個套身教差太遠,小朋友冇所適從。教唔好的。以我朋友為例,知書識禮,小朋友都同自己好大分別。尤其上左中學既,朋輩影響好深,見同學多過父母,揀學校都要各方面去考量。




作者: lyhv    時間: 14-9-25 15:08

學之園課程深唔深,真係見仁見智,我只可以說,學校給予的硬件和軟件絕對可以幫到小朋友適應香港大多數小一生活同面對正常的小一面試。  話說回頭,我小朋友在班內唔屬於成績標青的一個,但老師從來沒有給予壓力,校長更再三再叮囑家長唔好俾小朋友咁大壓力。如果有朋友問我邊間幼稚園好,我絕對會介紹佢地去學之園。

Having discipline is important.  But over-doing it makes the kids very robotic.

Last year when I asked my son to make a choice, he had a very difficult time to make his choice (in the playgroup the year before he made the decision very quickly and let you know what he wanted without fear).  This year he is back to normal with his self confidence coming back (as a result he can make his choices quickly, talk to classmates and teachers, talk to strangers, etc etc).

Was language an issue why your sons didn't enjoy studying in LH? Did he understand English more than Cantonese at PN age? So he couldn't communicate well with other students and teachers?  I know LH is not really 'international' as most of the students are from local Cantonese speaking families.

Yes he prefers English over Cantonese but that was not the main reason behind it.
Even in English sessions he refused to do anything and just sit and did nothing.  He didn't talk to anyone (not even a yes or no) for many months.  And then the teachers started to punish him for 'not following orders' etc.  We could tell he lost lots of confidence last year.

As soon as we quit LH (we quit one month prior to the end of the school year) and brought him to try something else (ex: drama, ice skating, soccer, etc), his confidence started to come back.

In his new school, he was still a little hesitated in the first few days.  But he kept on gaining his confidence back and after a couple of weeks he is now expressing his ideas freely in school and communicating very well with the classmates and teachers again (which is 'back to normal' in a sense as he was like that when he was in playgroup (DMS Central) during his 6 months of playgroup time there).  We can tell he is a lot more confident now in talking (even in front of strangers) and making decisions and so on.  

Last year he was looking for excuse not to go to school.  This year he wants to go to school even on Saturdays and Sundays.  

I am sure if we force him to stay in LH, he would eventually adjust.  But it would also mean killing his confidence and creativity at the same time.

每年open day 都有很多活動供家長和小朋友參予,例如: Drama, 小手工,科學實驗,唱遊等同時老師會將教材展示即場回答家長疑問,所以如果時間少,最理想安排人帶小朋友參與活動,家長自己睇教材和詢問老師詳情。

作者: rugbyfan    時間: 14-9-28 23:33

I believer most parents want the children to have happy childhood. However, the education system in HK makes parents and children crazy. If the ultimate goal is local school, children need to be well prepared and equipped for primary interviews, and certainly during the course they need to put much effort on "academic knowledge" and sacrifice play time. No parents want to see children "suffer" but this is the game here sadly and unfortunately. If the kindergarten do not prepare the children for primary, parents will then blame the school for lack of good "training" programme.  International school is another route and the children are much happier as they will not be so stressed and have greater degree of creativity. However, children in international kindy may not be well equipped or trained for the local primary. There are always pros and cons of different types of kindy. Afterall, it all depends on the child's characters and ultimate route of schooling (local vs international).

Glad to know that your kids being back to normal and got a school fit for him.
My gal studied in LH from K1 to K3, her painting really mess, she like blue, always use Blue color for painting, blue human, blue elephant, blue dinosaur etc, no punish at all, sometimes got 'excellent' .  Also in general, no punishment in LH , just ask to redo it again in good shape .BTW, my son in PN this year, he love LH very much .

Agree with your comments.  My son is in K1 now, even though the class teacher sometimes said to me he was a bit active and not sitting properly at school, my son still loves the class teacher and the school very much. This shows to me that no punishment is put on the kid (at least to my kid).  Overall I'm very satisfied with the school with its teaching materials, teachers and adminstration.

Another thing we didn't like about LH:

They make students lose the ability to make their own choices.  They set out all the steps and make the choices for the kids.  We noticed that from our kid last year.  He used to be able to make his choices and be proactive.  He used to be able to go into a room and pick the toy he wanted.  But after a couple of months, he started to wait for permission and didn't take initiative.  He started to find it necessary to 'wait for people to tell him what to do next' (something that is so wrong in my opinion).

He is starting to get better now but is still not as decisive as before (and still can't make choices of his own most of the time).  Hopefully he will get better and be 'back to normal' in a couple of months (definitely getting better and on the right track again after going to the new school).

does it mean that you want your kids to do whatever he wanted?

I think at this early stage, he should be able to play freely without any limit. Not that just telling him what to pick

No.  But for example, I prefer the kid to be able to pick his toy and make his own decision instead of being provided and given the toys / choices by the teacher.  If decisions are all made for the kid, then he will lose his ability to decide and make choices and just wait for others to 'spoon feed' him.  This is one of the reasons why people have problem deciding things (ex: takes forever to decide what to eat when the lunch menu is given to him) in my opinion.

嚟緊星期六學校開放日, 你可以兩間學校都去睇吓, 比較吓,
除咗校舍大細, 如果你小朋友要搭校車, 你都可以考慮埋校車呢個因素.  我都係住藍田, 當日就係睇到佢兩間分校o既校車路線, 睇到如果小朋友考到海逸, 校車就係由藍田開去觀塘, 再去九龍灣 etc先到學校. 但康城校就係去晒九龍灣, 觀塘先去藍田再返學校, 咁即係小朋友唔駛咁早出門口搭校車.  所以最後我報康城校.

每人所遇到的經歷不同,LH令我驚訝的反而係未見過有校長會同幼稚園生開會,邀請佢地表達意見。為提升小孩同理心,有小領袖計劃由K3去照顧Pn同學及小校長/小校監選舉。
我認識的LH好努力幫孩子建立信心,多方面教育學生。

Also, the youngest PN student at LH shall born on August. How they repeat PN? Unless, they are super big B.

我小朋友曾經讀過DMS(Central) PN幾個月,之後入LH由PN讀到現在K2。我反而覺得DMS(Central)普遍老師唔夠水平(視乎那一位教),普通話老師最唔掂。英文老師得一個最掂。老師turnover rate好大,校長資歷不夠。反而LH老師水平比較好,可能有課程中央控制,校長亦比較資深。我比較喜歡小朋友有紀律,亦不是太谷地學習。小一支援充足。LH完全符合我們理想幼稚園!

Is your boy a "small boy" when he studied in LH?  Is he a "big boy" when he is in another KG now?

In my case, my boy studied in an International KG when he was a "small boy".  He repeated in LH as a "big boy".  When he was in the international KG, he was extremely shy and his self-confidence was very low.  His ability was so much behind his classmates that he had much less chance to participate and spoke up in class as compared with his classmates.  He just could not follow the curriculum.

When he repeated in LH, he changed completely.  He became a leader in class.  He gained a lot of self-confidence and he was very happy.  The curriculum was not difficult to him and he participated a lot in class.  We were so amazed about his change during the class observation day in LH.  He developed very well in LH.

In my own story above, I am not saying that the international KG is not good, it's just that my boy was too small at that time and he did not have the ability to follow the curriculum yet.  Being a big boy in LH, it became another story.

Pushing information to a kid kills his creatively and problem solving skills and his desire to explore (even if he can learn the stuff when the information is pushed to him).  Learning through play is much better in the long run in my opinion (that's one of the reasons why Chinese people are way ahead in secondary school but westerners become better when research etc is needed in university in my opinion).  When you are used to getting information pushed to you (you will remember and know it but when it is tweaked a little bit then you get lost and don't know what to do), then you lose the ability to be creative and suddenly get lost when instruction is not provided to you (i.e. losing the ability the think and solve problems).

My son was born in June (youngest in class in PN last year and still the youngest in the new school).
And if the teachers spend more time on the older kids because 'it makes their job easier' and 'focus on those kids more to get better results for Primary', then I don't think it is a very good school.

I don't think the teachers spend more time on older kids, but older kids tend to speak up more and participate more proactively in class.
