Your analysis is very good.
Hi Candeelian,

My son got an offer from rhs pm class this year, at the same time he also got offer from Pods. At first i am struggling and frustrated about which pn should i choose. From many forums, comments towards rhs are almost positive and highly rated. But at the same time, i appreciate pods教學理念 because this school encourages students to explore and discover. By intense reading scheme, i have heard that students from pods are strong in intellectual thinking and very presentable.

But after i read this post and got comments from several users here, rhs gained back my confidence. Thank you for your positive comments here.

I know rhs is strong in academic in general. For their pn class, can students get enough support for reading and learning engligh?

Hi Erikobb823,

While I am not a user of Pods, I can tell you my experience with RHS and why I selected it in the first place. It has been my first choice all along.

First, RHS is all-round in language, not only in English. Honestly, it is easier to learn English than Chinese. RHS focuses on both languages. Apart from Cantonese, Mandarin and English, the children will have exposure in Spanish in K1. So, the children's language potential can be stimulated. I was given a lot of English books in the first quarter of PN. They started to learn phonics (starts from a, b, c) step by step. They have two English teachers in a class. To answer your question, I find the support in learning English is very sufficient. My child can flexibly apply English in her daily life. Yesterday, she saw a picture with her footprints. She said "it's footprints." I am quite amazed that she learns this word and I don't remember when I have taught her this word.

In sum, I am pleased with RHS' English learning environment.

Second, they also encourage the children to explore themselves. There are projects regularly to let the child to present their ideas, after having worked with the parents at home. They will bring back to school the homework and present it in front of the class. My child says she loves going to school every day.

Third, their campus is huge. It gives a lot of space to let the children to run around and stretch themselves.

Last but not least, the teacher-parents' communication is unmatchable by other school. The teacher whatsapp us on nearly daily basis about our children's behaviour, weekly communication book where the parents can write their thoughts about the children to the teacher and the teacher will feedback to us, handbook with weekly curriculum and quarterly parent's meeting to get a thorough update of our children. My sister looked at all the materials I have and was very impressed by this school. She said she had never received such caring during her kindergarten at St. Paul's Convent School. Both my sister and I attended that school. My sister is very strong in academic and is a Cambridge graduate. What she said has some value to me.

In any case, I am still undecided between RHS and True Light.

Hi Erikobb823,

Since both you and your kid like RHS so much, why would you even consider a transfer?  For an unpromised possible primary slot that you may eventually decide not to take in the end, and at the risk of your kid being exposed to an unknown/unfamiliar environment?

I am not related to either RHS or True Light. But if I were you, I would not transfer unless I am not satisfied with the current school or if the benefit of such transfer is significant.

but everyone knows applying to primary school is a torturing and stressful process.
TL's primary and secondary school is good.
It is natural for people to choose a through-train school.
Hence, that's the struggle.

rhs 英文語境會好D, 堅真聽講每日有NET 20 mins 英文堂, 坑真就 30 mins NET 英文堂 per week,  英文來講rhs 稍勝, 但小學的話,真小一定好過玫小,堅真 同坑真其實話就唔係100%,  其實到最後好高%入返,而且堅真的話,siblings 係有優先的,就算唔係穩入,都一定比無家姐哥哥讀的大機會。所以,如果你想避開小一呢場硬仗,又ok 真小的話,就真光。 如果你覺得develop better language foundation 比升小更重要的話,可能rhs 會好DD....當然,如果你小朋友無論讀邊間都會出外補習的話, 咁真光就最好了,又有學卷,又升小唔洗煩,你又唔洗擔心佢英文會差。

Hi Erikobb823,
Candeelian, I am very impressed by your reply, it's so detail, covering many aspects that I concerned and emphasized.

More questions i would like to ask…

In your second point, you mentioned rhs has some projects which require parents' help to complete with students and they have to bring back those projects to school and present their ideas in front of the class...may i know what kinds of "project" they are usually asked to do? Can you give me few examples?

Besides, i heard that parents-teachers communication is very close in rhs. What is the ratio of teacher:student in your existing pn class? Do you think caring or attention from teachers to each students are adequate? My boy is quite active and aggressive, to certain extent i think he likes to perform and "show off", so i dont think he would be neglected in the class anyway, but in such small age like pn, i prefer to have small class(ratio). Whether teachers are caring and kind-hearted, is what i concern the most, more than how many qualification or education cert that rhs teachers had obtained.

I see. same as my sister. I went to U.K. and attended Cambridge's rival university, O 記.
That aside, are you trying to bring out that RHS has given you a solid foundation?

Hi Erikobb823,

Since my girl has just started school for the 1st term, I have one project so far. It was about how to deliver a raw egg to the school safely without breaking the egg. I have to explain to my girl what I did to protect the egg. She has to present the method in front of other children. On a weekly basis, she has homework once a week. The homework is parent-and-child activity that you could do it together with your child.

There are 25-26 students a class with one class teacher, two English teachers, one assistant and one Mandarin teacher. The caring from my class teacher is very sufficient. Probably, my class teacher is one of the best  in the school. She is very caring to my child to things as little as how many clothes my child put on to how to hold a pen correctly. She notised my girl is quiet while she understands everything. The teacher will encourage my child to go out and present her ideas. During our last parents' meeting, she told me I can boost my girl's maths as the school is not very strong in this area. She gave me a thorough review of my child's development more than I am aware of my child.

I'm forever grateful for the strong foundation built by rhs in my early years. My classmates were very competitive and many of them ended up in top notch secondary schools and became quite successful. That said, the bottom 25pc had to stay in rhs secondary. My daughter is attending pn in the coming year and i trust she will be equipped with whatever is required when graduating and there wont be any pain catching up wherever we chooses to leave rhs. That gives me comfort because I'm a working mum. .

Thanks for your comments abt rhs. My girl s going to rhs pn class in the cuming sept. I usually hear ppl saying that rhs is good in acadamic, but for the teachers' quality, caring, patience..... Ppl rarely comment. This makes me kind of worry abt.
Apart from your the-best-class teacher, do u know that whether other parents hv the close relationship with their class teachers too? The whtsapp thing s a compulsory?
So lucky to hv a great pn class teacher since the child s so young to sch and i think it s really important to meet some gd teachers so that the child likes going to sch
Thx again
