其實樓上的回應都答了部分問題,這裡的家長是很低調
使費可能同其他學校差不多,您可以計計兩間學費+校車+茶點的分別!興趣班/英文班我地都無JOIN,咁就同其他學校一樣,學校只是俾多個Option您啫!
我只當YORK是一間普通既Kind ...
Cowboy2007, thank you so much, I have been looking for reply since I post last time and finally get response from you, thanks a lot.
And totally agree with you, haha, yes, if the Principal can improve her skills in seminar, it will be more impressive.....esp. many parents wonder why she says "I haven't decided how to accept offer for PN (when it is March this yr, but many got offers last Oct!), so what do you think if we can't offer u PN but K1 next yr?" Haha, after hearing this, really feel surprised and confusing, wondering how come a Principal tells parent so open that she doesn't know how to make offer to PN, and secondly, worry if there are many PN students left York and go to other schools, and that's why she is so nervous to give offer for K1 next yr.
About my concern, yes, after reading many posts from mammys with their kids studying in York sharing their good comments and their kids are happy with their school life, good curriculum, esp. I like their strength in English; and your saying that homework is not too much or too pushy or harsh to my kids, I feel more relieve, no need to worry if my baby can catch up with others.
Actually, based on the fees including the snacks, uniform, etc. in their registration form, it doesn't cost much, and I see mammys saying those "self-made" (by School) tools for teaching Eng & Maths (also free of charges for computer software?), and those activites for festivals (no problem even a bit extra pay as kids having fun and learn from the activies), I do think, it is not expensive, well, maybe a bit higher cost than other schools.
Totally agree that, it worths as it really helps the kids for overall development, and no need to spend extra to learn Eng and Mandarin (am I right they are ok for Mandarin, many only talk about English), that save me many (I am now spending $3000 for 3 lessons a week for Spanish, Eng & Mandarin, but will continue his Spanish class after PN on weekends).
And you have mentioned there are some optional extra curriculiar studies or playgroups after school (am I right? or misunderstand), would you mind tell me more? What kind of playgroups (language, dancing, singing, etc.?) and are they for after school (but my baby got p.m. offer only), on weekends....can't see any information from their website.
Just one more point I really concern (also my hb), asked in other thread but no response. A mammy mentioned there will be extra charges for joining Cambridge starter course, I know it is optional, but I join York as I like this. Any idea of
(a) when he will start the course, K2?
(b) how much it cost for this course;
(c) will there be big difference in study if he doesn't take this course?
(d) any other course fee extra to pay similar to this?
I am so happy many mammys share their experience here, so that we, who are new but have no idea on which school we should pick, can know more about the School, and finds the one fits our babies.
So, really can't understand why some mammys leave a post here and say something bad or without any "meaning", just saying "not good". If they really think York is not good, could they quote some details and real examples form themselves or their friends, so that we know why and what happened.
Thank you so much for your help, cowboy 2007, and really looking forward for your reply.
Thanks again.
