hi bbjan,

Yes, my son will attend P1 in SJS in the coming fall.  My son loves ESF Tsing Yi very much, and I am happy with the school as well.  

When he attended K1 in Anfield, I still remember that he cried when my maid left his classroom; it lasted about 2 weeks. Note: he was very familiar to the school and knew some of the classmates from playgroup.  Then, when it came to ESF Tsing Yi, he didn't cry at all (even on the first day).  The teacher wrote to me that he was busy to explore his new school and was very happy there, especially when singing songs.

Sorry to ask this question.  I found in the "book" that I bought, Anfield is Putonghua and English.  However, my friends are telling me it is only English.  In the previous threads, it sounded like they are teaching Chinese also.  Can any of the Anfield parents clairfy for me?

Greatly appreicate!!

Before I paid to Anfield for my son's coming K2 class there, I got a physical visit to the kindergarten campus and had a detailed briefing. I was told that Mandarin will be taught there besides English.  And I saw many kids with other nationality in the classrooms.  And I think it is a school that wld accept special children, seemed that they have assistance to Autism children too. I welcome such doings.  And the campus looks very good and I kind of like it.

Maybe you can phone them and ask for a visit before you enroll.  I think it is popular in western countries...

Hi Kakaeo,

My son is a graduate from Anfield, from prep-programme to K2.
Anfield uses English as the main medium for teaching while they offer Mandarin lesson everyday, but duration varies at different year level. I remember for prep-program it's only 15 minutes. Forgot about kindergarten.

Cheers,
Ruby

No.  As I know, there are at least 2 kids will go to SJS in the coming Aug.

Do you know why no Anfield student was invited to the fir
interview in SJS?  Which school are those kids finally gone if they firstly applied for SJS?

SJS = Shatin Junior School (the ESF primary school in Shatin)

I would say, Anfield does not give your kid any advantage or priority to get into ESF schools.

My son is an Anfield graduate. I planned to enroll him into ESF school from primary, with the hope that Anfield would be a stepping stone. However, we did not get any interview opportunity from any ESF school at all, namely BHS, SJS and Bradbury (as we moved house frequently in the past years, from Kowloon to N.T. to HK Island !)

As someone said, getting interview opportunity from ESF is depending on your nationality, passport, sibling, ESF kindergarten, etc. A HK kid from IS school is only in the 2nd last category in the ESF priority list.

However, as I commented in the other thread (Anfield K.1), I believe that Anfield is a good school providing solid foundation for your kid to progress to primary IS. But for sure it won't give you any priority in applying ESF.

Cheers,
Ruby

Thank you!  I kind of don't want him to be in any ESF as I want him to follow the USA system instead.  Just very afraid that if no international school will take him when primary rolls around in a few years, he will be very far behind in terms of Chinese should he is forced to go to a local school.
