Heiheibbchu and Ciz,

I always have hesitation giving comments on discipline issues.  As a matter of fact, different parents have different yardsticks.  Personally, I don't see 'problems' with the discipline of CKY students.  I'm also not in a position to compare it with that of international school students.  What I could say is that students really enjoy schooling and the classroom environment is superb - with students eager to answer questions.  Some are disappointed for not being chosen.

I find it appealing with the classroom mechanics which is very interactive.  Students can volunteer to be "Little Teachers" who would have certain authority and responsibility to appraise other students' performance during the class.  It's coffee-table seating instead of the conventional classroom seating (students are clustered around tables) for Year 1 students (am not sure about upper years).  To be frank, some students are not really sitting straight.  You might even say that they are kind of 'couching'.  Parents concerned about things like this should have a rethink on enrolling their kids to CKY.

In fact, students are taught about class rules in the first month and they know they have to raise their hands before speaking out.  They know what's right or wrong. I would say they are disciplined but not penalized.  This is quite a different mindset from the conventional one which requires 'control' before teaching.  CKY has such a luxury partly because of its comparatively smaller class. They are focused on facilitating learning - especially the enthusiasm to learn - rather than the 'amount of teaching'.  The sky is the limit when it comes to knowledge.  My bottom line is - as long as the school doesn't kill the student's curiosity to learn, it suits my kid well.

When it comes to discipline, I think it requires efforts of both the school and home.  Do you think a very disciplined child at home would 'go wild' in school?  If so, it's really worrying as a school kid already needs to wear two faces at a tender age.

Anyway, just some personal thoughts.  Other views are  much welcome.

Can the students go the local English Secondary schools after?

CKY has its own secondary school, she will 100% take their own students.  Or, you want to ask, could the students change to other local schools in the midst of the study.  Frankly speaking, the teaching mode of CKY is more likely an international school than local school, students may have difficulty to fit for the traditional drilling mode.  I would deem that choices would be limited.

Thanks.  It seems that the school is strong at Language teaching.  How about Maths and Science?

Eh-oh

If my daughter is now studying International School (Kindergarten), that school is now rarely Chinese lesson. If she apply CKY next year P1, will that school consider her?
Thanks!

Please be assured that there are quite a lot of my son's classmates graduated from international kindergartens.

Mind you that even those from international kindergartens have a certain grip in Chinese.  And I don't think those (parents) who are only concerned about English language would find CKY a good choice.  

In short, all students at CKY would have to (not optional) learn Chinese langauge in school.  

Eh-oh, instead of swinging between 'international' and 'local', perhaps you should first make up your mind about the preferred education for your kid before deciding on the school.

小兒已上學一個星期,他很喜歡上學.雙語學習方面,進步讓我驚喜.我們在家很少用英文溝通,家裡也沒賓賓,他又不是來自名牌英文幼稚園,但並沒有因此有學習障礙,對英文也不抗拒,偶爾告訴我學校的情況,還有偶爾彈出一兩句英文完整的句子,讓我知道他能自然學會英文(尤其說和聽兩方面)

最近他很快樂地告訴我他要當故事大使,帶了"麥兜豬"回家,還自編了一個國慶的故事給我聽.....

我相信在CKY學習的同學最大的得著是會視學習是一種樂事.這是最寶貴的學習經驗,比會讀會寫多少個生字有意義得多.

請問多數都係到海外升讀大學 or 本地大學都可以讀??

kyliema2006

蔡繼有現時最高的一級是Yr 7，即中二，所以未有入大學的分佈資料。若言取IB的成績，不論海外或本地都是認可的。選擇本地或海外升學，相信是學生自己的選擇而已。

呀咕

唔該晒你呀!! 因為我岩岩聽見哩間學校! 所以開始留意! 我比較喜歡活動教學, 所有, 想搵多d哩d學校! 港大同學會, 真道 & 蔡繼有都會係我目標!!
請問CKY會唔會好難考? 因為港大同學會係比較難架!!
THANKS!!^^

kyliema2006

港大同學會係香港島，蔡繼有係深水埗，真道係將軍澳。如果妳喜歡活動學校的，最好找些不要太遠的，始終上學路途太遙遠，或會影響孩子學習呢。

而家很多家長都會報十間八間學校作準備，所以可以講間間都難考。問題在於，有幾多家長會真正報讀成功考取學校。所以有心人，若特別心儀某間學校，就要鍥而不捨不斷向學校寫信，可能到七月、八月或九月會有好消息都說不定呢。

同意～～
我個人認為，能夠令孩子們喜歡上學、自發去學習的，就是好學校
近幾年有很多新私校和直資都辦得幾好，口啤不錯
蔡繼有也可、培橋也好、王錦輝也好、港大同學會也好（對真道認識不深）
都會有它的強項和不足之處
以蔡繼有為例，最大問題是「貴」，而且因為沒有壓力，家長和學生的自發性要很強
另一方面，學生的兩文三語又真係幾「惦」
是不是物有所值，只能讓家長自行判斷

蔡繼有年年都有好多學生考蔡繼有，一年比一年難入
也年年都有學生退學，也有不同的原因

如果是我，蔡繼有和港大同學會，我會考慮交通因素
從來不贊成孩子要花很長時間在交通上，太浪費了

Hi kyliema2006,

我的兒子今年升K2,但性格比較害羞,不過很喜歡閱讀,CKY是否適合呢?

kyliema2006

Dear Joannelam,

本人覺得喜歡閱讀的孩子就讀CKY這類學校會較為合適，因為學校鼓吹閱讀，所以功課量較少，希望學生也能在家進行閱讀。再加上，學校每天亦有閱讀時間，還有朋輩的影響，所以會有良性的影響。

至於性格問題，小兒也是性格內歛的，但尚算乖巧，所以老師都經常以獎勵的方法提升小兒的自信。記得小一時答問題，聲線微弱到相信祇有他自己才聽到，現在已經能克服了這心理障礙了，但要表現於人前，尚需些磨練。
