If you want a easy life for your girl then take St Paul's Convent because there should be no problem for them to go to St Paul's Secondary.

Hearsay that there is only around 1/3 of P6 students in Maryknoll Convent can promote to her Secondary.

2間學校基本上是不難決擇, 最主要是你要了解你自己女兒是否適合較多功課及是不是讀書的材料.
聖保祿是私校, 基本上是一條龍, 不過一直上至中學都要交學費. 小朋友讀書沒有太大壓力, 只要每年中,英, 數合格就年年升級至中學.
如果在MARYKNOLL的話, RESULT一定要好才可直升上中學. 功課亦會比聖保祿多, 因為Maryknoll始終是一間津貼學校, 要應付升中派位. 如果你有信心你的女兒可應付到較多的功課, 那麼Maryknoll會是一個好選擇. 因為始終不用交學費, 亦是很多人心目中的dream school.

如果你不計較學費的問題, 亦想小朋友及大人過得輕鬆一些的小學生活. 那麼就一定是選St. Paul啦!

Re: Please comment and advise: Maryknoll Convent and St Paul's Convent> Which

If both distance and school fee not a problem, I think I will still choose Maryknoll because the overall standard is higher and girls are smarter. I am not sure about the percentage of primary graduates being promoted to maryknoll secondary section, but should be higher than 1/3 ???? 2/3? As a lot of parents have written in BKforum, not much pressure for students and girls are happy studying in MCS and they have a strong school spirit!
I know that some private schools even push their students even harder and more pressurised!

I am not against private school, but I do have an impression that government/ aided schools students have a stronger sense towards the community and not just living around their own circle of friends.

Private schools, in some ways, narrowed the students' mind about the outside world because they tend to participate less in the community service which i think is a very important part in education.
Many academically  equivalent students of both government/private schools differ in the sense that one gets to adapt to outside world more easily.

The trend now is that parents like to get their kids entering private school (if money is not a problem).Reason?  MAINLY (over 90%?) because they don't have to worry about choosing secondary school again. DO you agree? I personally think that all-rounded education is VERY important and should broaden the kids' horizon.

But still, I think school distance is an important factor to considerate if finance is not a problem. Long journey to school everyday does affect the kid.
DId i say too much? Just some personal opinion to share!

I am more familiar with the schools in Kowloon side and I have come in contact with a lot of the top school students both socially and at work.

God bless :(

Re: Please comment and advise: Maryknoll Convent and St Paul's Convent> Which

Dear All,

Thank you for your valuable advice and comment.

In view of the difference between these two schools, the school fee of St Paul's Convent $2240 per month will not make me trouble for Maryknoll also has need to pay $3500 a year.

What I care is the percentage and method of primary students promoting to its secondary schools.
Also the teaching method, syllabus, the help from teachers in educating girls...? May be too many concerns for a normal parents. I still not making a decision..so difficult, can anyone help me?

By the way, we are an ordinary family and girl in a ordinary kindergarten (Not in SPK). By luck, she succeed in these two schools in the 3 rd round.

Regards,

Hi Caretaker,

照我知, St. Paul's Convent Primary 多數收噃自己Kindergarten and Nursery, 你點考倒入去? 係咪寫信?

我啲cases 同你差唔多, 我都係要做個抉擇 - St. Paul's Convent & St. Stephen's Girls. My daughter now studying at St. Paul's Kindergarten and they already confirmed her space as P1 student.   I know that St. Paul's Convent if 中英數 pass, promoted to F1 is not a problem.  Even if you fail in either one subject, they will let you repeat.  I know that the percentage for both St. Stephen's Girls and Maryknoll convent to promote to their secondary are around 2/3.  That's what I have to consider.

The environment around St. Paul's Convent are too crowded and Causeway Bay has too much temptation. The girls are more trendy.  Do you agree with me?

If I am you, I for sure I will go for Maryknoll Convent because it is such a good school and so hard to get it.  
:-) :-) :-)

Dear Caretaker,

I would prefer Maryknoll given your girl is so smart to be accepted by both famous schools, you have to believe in her.  Maryknoll is everyone's dream school and the seat is really difficult to get.

By the way, how she can succeed in these schools (one in Kowloon side and one on HK Island) given you girl is not studying in St Paul Kindergarten? But you have to use only 1 address to apply, right?  What is meant by 3rd.

Dear Ching Ching Father,

因為St. Paul's Convent 九月已經知道收佢, 有人教我既然我只心儀一間, 就只填First Choice. 如果我填咗2nd & 3rd choice, 有可能1st choice 唔得就會派去2nd or 3rd choice. 既然我只心儀一間 St. Stephen's Girls, 得就得, 唔得就stay in St. Paul's Convent. 所以我2nd & 3rd choice 都冇填。

Dear Caretaker,

Can you please share with us how do you prepare for 3rd round application to Maryknoll?  How was the interview by the Principal?  And what did you attach with your application in the 3rd round?  As far as I know from existing parents with kids studying there and other parents failed in this final application, it is much difficult to get place from Maryknoll at the 3rd round unless you have connection with the School.  

If you don't mind please tell us in details as your valuable experience (succeed both in St. Paul & Maryknoll) will enlighthen lots of parents here indeed.
那時我為得到這孩子祈禱,上主就賞賜了我所懇求的,所以我現在把他獻於上主,他一生是屬於上主的。(撒上:27-28)你教導孩童應行的道路,待他老年時也不會離棄。(箴22:6)

Dear Ching Ching Father,

You are right!  I did join the central allocation even the 1st round, but I failed.  I just get admitted to St. Stephen's Girls for the 2nd round.

其實我重好惆悵! 我唯一concern就係佢P6可唔可以升讀原校.  雖然佢係大女, 所以而家佢啲成績都算係中上。但係到小五六嗰陣時係點就唔知。St. Paul's Convent 起碼不用再煩!  但係St. Paul's Convent P1 已有兩次大測, 兩次大考, 而St. Stephen's Girls 一二年班只有測驗, 到三年班先有考試, 所以我捻壓力會冇咁大。你有乜意見可以給我?

佢嗰班有幾個同學會走。她們有D派去跑馬地St. Paul's, 有D派去Marymount, 也有同學派去港大同學會, 這些都是頭三個志願。但是亦有些同學頭三個志願都抽唔倒。

:-) :-) :-)

Re: Please comment and advise: Maryknoll Convent and St Paul's Convent> Which

其實你地講既都係至top既學校之一,讀邊間都唔會差得去邊.我反而有個小小意見,如果係 Maryknoll Convent 或 Marymount, 我都會考慮俾囡囡入讀, 因為這兩間小學既小一學生係由唔同既幼稚園派入來. 大家都係由零關係開始.至於 St. Stephen's Girls 我就唔會考慮, 因為大部份既學生都係來自原校幼稚園, 而外來生就變做小數民族,包括家長.要融合及建立歸屬感既時間就比較耐...
