沙田倍僑書院 is much better than I thought

I noticed one topic “沙田倍僑書院 is not as good as I thought”. While I want to make a fair comment on it, I figure that I cannot do it under that topic. So I post up a new topic as “沙田倍僑書院 is much better than I thought”.

The following is quoted from EvaYYChan

I have read many news/information about
沙田倍僑書院 for a long time. I was planning to let my daughter to apply this school.   But, after attending the open day held on last Fri, I have changed my mind.   The English standard of the R2 students is not so good. (sorry to their parents).   Most of them spoke broken sentence.     What's the view of their attendees?

This is my reply:

I don’t want to be sarcastic, but honestly I think that your English is much better than the students you described. Do you want to know why?

Nothing personal. (I’m sorry if I offended you inadvertently. This is a broken sentence. What I mean is that the following content is nothing personal to you.
By the way, there will be some more broken sentences forthcoming if you don’t mind.)

I don’t use “many” before uncountable nouns like “news” or “information”. You did. Frankly, you are more like Shakespeare than I. You are capable of ignoring language rules. You are capable of making complete sentences as well.

“I was planning to let my daughter to apply this school”  -  That’s the way you put it. For me, I am still planning to make application to Pui Kiu College for my son. I will not “let my son to apply this school” because he always makes grammatical mistakes like putting a “to” after the verb “let”. I explained it to him a hundred times, but he never listens.

While my son knows how to apply cream to a scone, he doesn’t know how to apply “school” to anything else. He explains. The “school” is too big.

I told my son not to start a sentence with “But”. He said, “Why not? Everything is changing. Why is grammar not?”  Isn’t that fascinating? (Sorry to the parents having similar kids.)

I could go further, but would rather not.

Good day.

I can't even be bothered to respond to that topic.
For someone who label a school to be "no good" simply because the "R2" students (BTW what is R2?) spoke broken sentences is purely juvenile.
For an a ...

Thank you.

Hi, I am a new memeber and live in Kornhill area.  My son is now in G1 in Pui Kiu. To be a mother who loves the kid and care about their 6 years primary school life so much, I make a decision to let me son to study in Pui Kiu.  When you think about the time my son travels daily between Kornhill & Tai Wai, and turned down the offers of acceptance from the other famous DSS schools, it will be insane to do so if you think the school is not good enough.  So far, my son always wears a smile on his face when he mention about his school life.  I think I've made the right decision.

Thanks.

I'm happy to see the parents being so supportive.  Well of course as a current parent, we need to and want to be supportive.  Afterall the school is new, and i do not have complaints about their adm.  A few hiccups maybe, but not major.

We live in Shatin and everyday need to spend 30 mins on school bus.  It's already a pain, because the kid is so tired everyday.  But I think it's worth it as long as he's enjoying and learning.  I give a big hand to cnkma as your kid is travelling a much longer way in order to go to a school you and your kid likes.

Let's all grow with the school!

Agree.
