Kingston or HLYIS

Dear all,

Could anyone give me advice, Kingston or HLYIS. Which one is better. Providing travelling to the school is not my concern.

I target to join ESF stream for my children.

I prefer HLYIS.  My kids used to go there, and they LOVED it!  It is a very caring community school with lots of open area.

Re: Kingston or HLYIS

How about their academic standard? And which secondary schools do your kids go?

Re: Kingston or HLYIS

Kingston is IB and HLYIS is England Curriculum, quite a traditional one in my view. I am not sure if I am right, HLYIS should be more favour to ESF.

Re: Kingston or HLYIS

Besides you, I tried to ask for more advices from other HLYIS parents. The answer is negative, her experience was that the teacher told her son had hearing problem, as a result asking her son to repeat nursery. It’s only nursery, for god sake.

As the parents like us, it is hard to admit our kid not capable to meet the standard, at home obviously s/he has shown no problem at all!

Can you tell me more how's your kid starting in HLYIS?

Dear CAAmum,
Usually they go to Shatin College.  HYLIS now has year 7.  I think they need to take their Apple computer with them to school everyday.

Re: Kingston or HLYIS

Dear Joenkm,
Really?  That was quite sad.  There's a kid who has down symdrome in my daughter's class, but they have never asked her to repeat wor.  They are very caring to her (treat her like normal kid)..umm..May be the reason why they asked your friend's kid to repeat was because they thought he/she couldn't listen or absorb anything before seeking treatment...that's why they asked the kid to repeat?
May be it wasn't because of the physical disability thing...it was because the parent or the kid didn't know about the hearing problem at first, and after the teacher realized there was a problem, the teacher encouraged the parent to have the kid repeated so to make up the time the kid wasn't hearing / learning well.  You think this was the case?  Did your friend finally find out if her kid really had a hearing problem?  Or it was only the teacher's opinion?  
My kid has been going to HLYIS since Tot's club (play group), and they love the school very much.  However, they will switch school in December because of the British system thing.  We are American Chinese, and sooner or later our kids will go back to the states for future education...that's why i need to have them switched to an American system Int. School.  If it wasn't because of this, I wouldn't consider switching..because I like HLYIS very much.  I still feel bad for switching them, but I guess this is the best way for them...

Re: Kingston or HLYIS

How about JIS in Tai Po? I've heard from many parents this is a very good Int'l School. Nice campus, high quality teachers, high academic standard, and most of the students go to ESF high school. but only the tuition fee is a bit higher than others (70000/ yr + 12000/ yr extra for school).

Re: Kingston or HLYIS

I believe so, how about Norweigian Internation School? Is it a good choice too?

Re: Kingston or HLYIS

Dear Lenglengma,

She switched to ESF when she heard the repeat. Now her son is in Sha Tin junior at P3.

One more thing want to know, are most of the HLY teachers come from UK, and your kid has carried very strong British accent?
