其實SC名氣大啲，考小一亦有record.只係因為PM令你唔知點？

Yeah. If SC pm (in fact just on waiting list at the moment but hopefully has a chance) in PN, I heard that it would be pm class all the way through to K3. Most extracurricular activities like drawing, dancing and mandarin are offered by centers in the afternoon. Don't know if many available in the morning.

But my main concern is I would like my daughter to enter the English/Putonghua stream in SC (in K1) but that needs an assessment beforehand. I'm a native English speaker and my husband is a local Chinese so we can help her in both languages, but we would like her to pick up Putonghua at school. If she doesn't get into the English/Putonghua stream in SC, then would Ming Wai PE be a safer choice since their language environment is English/Putonghua with a little bit of Japanese.

I know that SC is very reputable and is a better ticket to P1 allocation. However, is Ming Wai PE comparable to SC? I've heard good comments about the teachers and language environment from Ming Wai PE parents. But can I get a good P1 allocation after staying there for 4 years? My targets are Maryknoll, Good Hope, Heep Yunn, DGJS, etc. Again, schools that are very hard to get into. Do these schools like SC's graduates better?

If I don't get a place from SC, then I can try again at the end of this year for K1 English/Putonghua stream.

Thanks for your replies.

Heep Yan, DJS and Maryknoll are govt subsidised schools which places will be allocated based on P1 central allocation and points system. Irrelevant of which kg your kid is going.

DGS, Good Hope - private or DSS, you should choose SC becoz from proved records they have certain % graduates going there. Again Ming Wai doesnt have.

I do think MW is a good school and could provide a good language environment but SC does the same with even better reputation. If in worst couldnt get into eng-pth stream, you can do it outside school.

Regarding your concerns of PM class, i think it is acceptable unless you would like to push your kid for interest class everyday. To me, i prefer PM class becoz i insist no intrrest class on weekdays but having outdoor exercises in playground or park in the morning.

Hope this helps. Btw, mine is 1st kid also, im not v experienced mom and i want my boy going into a good primary school. However, i insists max two interest classes.

Thanks for your time. Useful input. I like your suggestion of daily morning exercise, which may not be possible if attending am class.
Btw, which PN will your boy attend? As an English teacher myself, I think St. Joseph's is one of the good options. Their academics and conduct are quite good.

I gave up MW AM for York PM. I didnt go to SC interview due to her PN location and class too big.

I prefer HKPS kln tong or York - activity based approach,good academic and good eng-pth environment. Good campus and facilities.

Only waiting for hkps, so i picked York. I do think Victoria is nice but my boy was sick on interview day, we missed it.

St Jo - u mean St Jo primary Wanchai? I didnt much looking at primary yet but may try St Jo in Round 1 allocation even though chance will be minimal. We have 20 points with same religion only. For DSS I'll be looking at CKYS, Ying Wah boys, KTS, St Jo Kwun Tong & st margaret co ed.
