我識得一些本地家長，小朋友十三四歲讀國際學校，同陌生人講野用英文，廣東話唔掂，家長自覺優越但我覺得九唔搭八。這是否所謂language barrier?

我女兒在esf幼稚園K2，平日在家較多講中文，只有讀故事書會用英文，當然每日大量讀故事書時間，一樣都考到了esf小學。中英文溝通完全沒問題，但就識字方面偏好英文，寫字也都偏好寫英文。漢語拼音比較抗拒，會同phonics渾殽，呢一點比較頭痕

Actually my daugther is going to PN only but beforehand we need to decide what way we should go i.e. SC,LH, mainly aim at local school , think int ,Victoria can shift to IB school.

i am just worry she will not get used to the english environment as we havent had such exp before. Just worry she will feel odd in the school if she cant speak fluent as other.

i m also afraid that i will make wrong decision as i heard some cases that the children cant enter ESF Yr1 from ESF k2, and eventually need to go back local school

Thank youv for your comments

If you really target to go to ESF, I think it's better you talk to your child at home in English. There will be a priority of ESF Kindy to ESF primary schools and so you can apply for their kindergartens next year. My son has the offer of the ESF k1 this year.

The kid can be fluent in both Cantonese and English (and possibly Mandarin) if he / she starts in a good language environment early. The speaking skill may not be as good comparing to the ones who speak only one language when they are 3 or 4 years old. But once they reach 6 or 7, they will be fluent in all languages.

What is wrong with SE Asian NET teachers? I have come across many well qualified ones. Are you a racist?

Since you have promoted this school so heavily in various threads, see:

http://www.edu-kingdom.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=3009083&page=1#pid40575714

I assume you know the school quite well. Since this school claims to have no SE Asian NET teachers, does this mean this school is non-inclusive or discriminate against SE Asians in its hiring practices?

Can't wait to see what kind of kids come out of an environment where discrimination is widely advertised.

Care to elaborate on what is your relationship with the school as well?

"Before I go their, I heard they have good connections with the ESF and lots of International schools, but that is just a bonus, the best thing is my daughter loves the school. "

Also, what does good connections mean?

Always fascinates me how someone like you who gather information and do detailed research here only talks about one school. Since your registration here in early March, you have started two threads both talking about the same school:

http://www.edu-kingdom.com/forum.php?mod=viewthread&tid=3012383

What a coincidence!

既然你咁想知道多啲關於呢間學校, 你應該做咗唔少研究, 有冇上過去EDB個網站查下佢嘅資料啊?

千祈唔好去讀書啊, 無論中英文名都搵唔到, 即係未有注冊嘅幼稚園, 犯法架!

之前有討論講過辧pre-nursery 好似不用教育局註冊，可用私人公司登記，唔知有無記錯。剛上Hamilton Hill綱站看過，除了介紹founder和一小段activity, 其他部分click入去出了太空文和符號，有D奇怪。

You can do whatever you want with your kids but people here are not stupid

Any half-wit knows the EDB website list all the registered schools in HK including kindergartens here (http://applications.edb.gov.hk/s ... earch.aspx?langno=2)

So are you saying that a kindergarten not registered with the EDB is now legal because you want down to "evaluate" its legality?
