我小朋友在FIS附近學打波,球場唔少FIS的學生,同組亦有幾個。小學部,學生算純和乖。至於中學生,就要睇你對純品的定義。如果你好傳統,未必啱你心水。

其實讀IS,尤其係外國人佔多的,多少要接受人地的文化,純粹「洋為中用」,會容易失望。例如,唔少學生係學校附近吸煙,有人會非議,但法國當地的學校係容許的,人地民族覺得無問題。
FIS小學部的學生,認識我女好幾個打波的朋友,8-11歲的。呢個年紀,佢地純和乖巧過唔少本地學生。

作者: canteen31    時間: 17-3-20 10:47

講真,呢個年代冇論讀Ls 定is 都一定比父母嘅年代開放,只不過我諗is d 學生冇咁需要扮乖吧!我自己有女,將會讀FIS, 我會介意佢十幾歲食煙飮酒拍拖,我明白後生嘅都有好奇心,我只可以教佢做任何事情都係有consequences!

小兒讀緊,幫我仔補緊中文個老師教緊港島band 1 男校小學,話佢純過好多佢既學生,不過我覺得佢地好動D,開朗D。
讀得呢間學校,有一半是外國同學,思想行為會比較西化是預料中事。説到中學變壞變開放,local school 也有機會學好或學壞吧!

我無升上中學會學壞的意思,始終家教最緊要,係想講價值觀唔同。食煙早拍拖,有家長猛烈批評,但人地文化唔覺得呢d係曳和壞。量度好多嘢,唔可以只用我地自己把尺。

Agree, 短裙露臍裝化裝紋身,呢D在本地傳統學校是好「壞」,但外國人真係覺得冇野。我女幼稚園有女老師手臂也有紋身,有女老師染髮(金毛)我地又覺得冇乜野。

借位一問…FIS一般會否俾年尾出生的小朋友遲一年入學(做大B)? 最近去info session問過,admission head答案大約係話叫我email佢,佢哋會考慮,我想知approve嘅機會有幾高?

我仔年尾出世,填form時已寫想報2019 Reception(當時以為birthday cutoff係8月),後來亦email過學校問可否遲一年才考,但學校一直將佢放喺waiting list for 2018 Reception class。最近又收到通知1-5月會有assessment,但學校仲未覆我可否轉2019…電話又冇人聽…好無耐…

After 1 year maturity, the Corporate Debenture will bring you to the front of the line....... so your chances of getting an interview will definitely be higher (but not earlier!), but of course it doesn't guarantee that you will pass the interview.

I think the new campus in TKO has allowed more headcounts for reception and primary year students. I just applied for reception end last year and got invited for the interview this month. We deliberately applied for the TKO campus coz it is just right next to our neighborhood. So from my experience, chances of getting an interview are not as low as before.

Yeah I heard it took that long so I was very surprised to see the kids coming out so quickly! Even the assessment notification email said it will take 90 min. Perhaps they revamped the content

Do you know what did they do during the 45min? My son refused to say anything. But I felt he wasn’t too happy. Not sure what they played

In my case, there was only 50 places for reception, so I guess  FIS were more selective and conducted longer interviews. But 2018/19 would be another story, with 2 new reception classes in TKO and more new IS opening in the area (new NAIS campus and Shrewsbury), chances of getting into FIS would definitely be higher.

My girl said they sang songs, drew pictures, did some art work, story time and comprehension - Just like a typical school day

Thank you! How have you found the school so far? Culture wise, is it similar to other International schools or more French style?

I think it’s just like other IS, not very French in the International section. I think there’s nothing fancy about FIS, no fancy Halloween parties, musicians playing violin to kids in the morning etc.... but FIS served my expectation, teachers and staff are caring and  my child is doing well academically in line with her age.

They are following the British curriculum in the morning and IPC in the afternoon. For the first term they focused on jolly phonics and practicing writing alphabets and numbers. For maths, they are learning how to use money, teacher actually gave them $5 and they can buy things they like at the fair. There’s also other themes, brushing teeth, growing vegetables etc.....They are having a good time in school and making friends. I think they have a good canteen menu too, food are prepared in school, with ice cream on Friday! Like I say, nothing fancy but adequate.
