Hi Grumpyminnie,

Did ESF offer you an interview? Which school did you apply?

Re: Anyone on ESF waiting list ?

Hi grumpyminnie,

When did you apply? I want to apply Bradbury School too, but my daughter is accepted by band 1 local primary school. (P.1.), my husband wants to see if she can do well in school first. If not, we will apply IS.
But I'm afraid if we apply at that time, we have to wait for another year.  Don't know what to do. My husband and I have conflicts on this issue. ...so sad!

btw, which kinder your child goes to, local or IS?

Re: Anyone on ESF waiting list ?

On April 3, 07 ESF sent the letter about" Their waiting list remains the demand for places has been particularly strong this year. Their waiting list remains long and , unfortunately, it is unlikely that we will be in a position to offer my applications for entry into the year group before the start of next academic year."
If the situation changes we will contact you stright away.
I didn't know how to do ? How about you ? Did you interviews yet? You can phone to school talking about the application.
Or apply the new school of ESF(PIS) in Discovery Bay.They will grand opening in 2007 Sept.And otherwise try another IS first , then if ESF has the vancany you may transfer to go Year 2-3.It doesn't matter 條條大路通羅馬!Don't be anxious! Let Try !
Please sharing!

請問你囝囝是面試等三年或等三年後先面試,在三年內是讀本地傳統小學,還是IS呢?
PLEASE SHARING THE EXPERIENCE!

To Kakaya :

兒子等了3年才有機會面試!

他由K3起就讀於Kowloon Tong AIS, 由於不是ESF直屬幼稚園,也因當年報讀小朋友較多,因此未能入讀該校。

也可說是他們既interview比較公平,未能提供學位時不會浪费大家時間。當然,高年級插班SJS對小朋友的英語能力要求也提高。Interview當日不用父母参與,我們只是在禮堂上聽校長簡介,而小朋友则約4人一組被帶到課室進行全英語面試(兒子說),結果在數天後便可以電話查詢。

Re: Anyone on ESF waiting list ?

Hi everyone,

If we're on the waiting list already and couldn't get a place for the coming school year, do we have to re-apply again in the next school year?

Re: Anyone on ESF waiting list ?

I think if there is any news, you should have received a letter as we have had and asked for your reply.   They are having a visit on early May (I cannot remember the exact date), and afterwards, we have to decide to go or not.

Re: Anyone on ESF waiting list ?

hw4388,
除了ESF之外5歲是讀YR 1,那麼其他IS都是不是多數讀YR 1 或GRADE 1呢?
你所說的AIS是否AMERICA INT'L SCHOOL 還是 AUSTRALIA INT'L SCHOOL 在KOWLOON TONG呢?
校風氣�讀書風氣不錯嗎?師資好不好?請問如何申請,要不要買學卷及付建設利息?
你囝囝是不是由K2INT’L CLASS 升上AIS還是由本地班K3考上IS Yr 2呢?
現在我囡囡就讀傳統本地班K2,而今年九月上K3我家人想她上IS YR 1, 但我現在沒有其他資料,只是上WEBSITE看IS資料又沒有一些學校COMMENT 好不好,不知那一間比較合適小朋友呢!苦惱.......已1月入了BHS(no vacancy in this year)及RC(confirm received letter)但他們只SENT一封信?????
其實要維持流利英語是否一定放小朋友在IS呢?如要等三年時間應該放他們在本地傳統名校或一般國際學校就冇問題呢?除了ESF小學之外,我真是沒有相識的朋友清楚一些關於其他IS小學了,請可否給我一些門路好嗎?十分感激!謝謝!

Re: Anyone on ESF waiting list ?

To Kakaya:

兒子由local K2轉到American International School (AIS)就讀 Grade 1 Junior, 當年Australia Int’l School還在長沙長舊址。

AIS 沿用美國學制,學校假期也跟本地學校頗相似,而Aus IS則跟隨澳洲學制及假期,,因此放假期間有所不同。

大多IS除了要求老師是degree holder外, 還另加教育文憑, 這點可在各大IS website中查看。

AIS Kindergarten入學不用考試,只是見見面便可。但越高年級插班則要求有相對的英語水平。就讀IS既小朋友由於沒有做功課壓力,他們大多有(被鼓勵)閱讀課外書本既習惯。小朋友間會互相介紹近期熱門系列,學校也鼓勵互相交换圖書。

据知 AIS、Aus IS及EFS也不用在入學時購買學卷及付建設利息。

Re: Anyone on ESF waiting list ?

hw4388,
謝謝你的回覆,現對AIS有趣,請問幾時可申請及學費是否每月AUTOPAY或分四次QUARTERLY交呢?有沒有校車,番學早不早,車程時間OK嗎?同學仔會不會打架??有沒有經常同小朋友去學校和老師COMMUNICATION例如:party,成績表,picnic...參觀及做project要家長去大會堂�寵物店�等等. 
因為已SENT了APPLICATION去BHS及RC,現RC只有收到的回條,但沒有實質的內容,不知好不好打電話或去另IS再申請呢?
我又怕給人印象沒有方向感,對小朋友經常轉學校,怕他們沒有歸屬感,真是矛盾!點錯好?
荷花資料說AIS HK有PREFERENTIAL DEBENTURES債券約HKD400,000,咪重貴過一些CANADIAN IS�GERMAN SWISS IS及HKIS?其實是不是多付債券是一件好的學校呢?
如果萬一ESF�RC收了給了債券咪要退來退去,真是煩?
所以你當時怎樣處理呢?心理...及處理方法
請SHARE!THANK A LOT!

Re: Anyone on ESF waiting list ?

Hi Kakaya:

記憶中AIS不用PREFERENTIAL DEBENTURES債券,更改了嗎?

學費可QUARTERLY或分兩期繳交。他們有校車,交通也方便。校舍分了小學及中學部,地方相比其它IS較細小,但好像擴建中。兒子就讀時每班也不超過二十人,而且師生關係良好。在其open day或fun fair時,眼看大部份其他老師
(一班一老師)也能叫出小朋友名字。學校活動沒有妳說那麽多,但每季也要見家長及領取成績報告。小朋友流動性也大...隨父母回國、轉校etc.不用擔心,小朋友適應力比我們強。

如AIS 8月開學,要最遲幾要申請呢?
好不好等ESF�RC:YR1-3?還是去AIS呢?如果交了3�6個月學費,到時ESF�RC有位,便不能退回學費嗎?
或LOCAL K3才申請IS:YR 2-3呢?謝!
