天主教徒有否機會考入英華小學呢?

MATTHAW

有成功例子嗎??? 請各位爸爸媽媽賜教, 謝謝!!!

其實我並不是對基督教有興趣，只是因為提起信仰和選校之間的關係，才就這方面了解一下，而在詢問前當然要稍稍做點皮毛功課。

謝謝你的祝願，希望你的孩子能愉快和有效地學習，度過一個快樂而充實的童年。

只要是基督教的正統教會，如你所述的加上宣道會、浸信會等大的宗派和很多不屬於任何宗派的小型教會。雖然在某些教義及禮儀上可能有差微差別，但對聖經主要教義的看法並沒有分別。我們都是主內的弟兄姊妹，不會分得那麼仔 ...

明白你的意見，謝謝回覆。

讓我再問得深入一點。基督教其實是個總稱，裡面有不同教派，例如聖公會，播道會，循道會等，它們的教義及/或儀式上有些不同 (這是我從網上得知的)，你在選校時會不會要求一定是自己信奉的那個宗派呢？ ...

只要是基督教的正統教會，如你所述的加上宣道會、浸信會等大的宗派和很多不屬於任何宗派的小型教會。雖然在某些教義及禮儀上可能有差微差別，但對聖經主要教義的看法並沒有分別。我們都是主內的弟兄姊妹，不會分得那麼仔細，理論上我們可隨時到任何宗派的教會聚會，敬拜神。在選校時亦不會指定那個宗派的學校。

相反有些宗派(如聖公會)的學校可能太出名，在報名時只接受自己宗派的受洗紙。其他宗派? No way!

看來你對基督教也有些興趣，鼓勵你到以上各大宗派的堂會或直接到英華堂了解多些。

最後希望你囝囝盡快適應英華的小一生活。

在教會學校，學校的理念和教學模式與宗教關係應該是非常密切的，我唔認為可以分開考慮。

換句話說，在你選校的過程中，宗教佔了壓倒性的重要性，只要是宗教不合的，無論學校的理念和教學模式是怎樣，你也不會考慮，是嗎？

我是基督徒，當年只為兒子選擇基督教學校。如果連自己的信仰也不能持守，怎能建立下一代的信仰。

若一間基督教學校不能接受天主教徒的學生，我認為它好極有限。

Agreed!

Thanks!

I think it suffices to say that religion (or the lack of it) does not seem to be an important factor in the school's consideration.  Catholic parents should consider whether placing their child in a Christian school will cause compatibility issues in respect of religious practices and interpretations, and whether these issues can be resolved by the parents.

Thanks for your sharing.

The interesting thing is, Catholics do not seem to have the same concern as Christians.  I would assume that your concern should also apply the other way round to Catholics (e.g. a Catholic studying in a Christian school).

Let me share my own experience.

Ours is a Christian family.  Last year, we only attempted Christian or non-religious primary schools.  We do know that there are many good Catholic schools.  The reason why we did not try any is that we don't want our kid to get confused in terms of the differences of the fundamentals (e.g. the role of the mother of Jesus) and terminology used (e.g. 天父 vs 天主，參加崇拜 vs 望彌撒).

I won't disapprove Catholicism.  Moreover, I welcome friends of any denomination/religions (in fact, I have many good friends who are Catholics or Buddhists). :)

I'm sure there must be a reason.

My speculation is that Christians somehow disapprove of Catholicism and don't want to be "polluted", so they don't want to have any connection with the latter.

cornelius

I "understand" that YW teaches 1 to 2 years ahead of the normal curriculum (e.g. P1 kids are taught with P3 stuff, P3 kids taught with P5 stuff).  May I know:

1.  If your kid's previous school also teaches ahead of P1 curriculum (which I think is quite normal nowadays)?  If so, how much ahead of the curriculum as you know?

2.  You mentioned your kid had to take written tests.  What is his comment on the level of the test papers (e.g. on par with his previous school's, easier or more difficult)?

3.  How do you (or others) consider the "banding" of your previous kid's primary school? (I mean the approx. % of band 1 or 2 or 3 students admitted or produced by the school)

The selection process is mainly based on academic results at school (better to be 1st/2nd of that year).  In addition, I believe more awards the kid can achieve in public/inter-school competition, the higher chance to be selected.  The kids are required to attend written tests in English, Chinese and Mathematics.

thomasha

Was the selection process difficult?  Can you share some details?  Some of my friends were not given an offer by YW and they were thinking of applying in P2 or later.

根據我的個人體驗，基督教徒頗為抗拒入讀天主教學校，反之天主教徒則不介意入讀基督教學校，具體原因尚在調查中。

有。My son is not the only Catholic in his grade。

My son is born catholic and also accept.  I attached his certificate in the porfolio.

It really doesn't matter and I am buddhish.
