加大拿中學

DerekChanKM

My son has applied for Grade 11 to Lakefield already.We are thinking about Applyby and Ridley College. Trinity College has already put Hong Kong applicants to the group of Mainland China. It has a first interview by a education company which charge you a minimum of two hundred something US dollar. I really think it is totally unnecessary and I consider to tick Trinity out from my choices list.
Do you think is it better to do the application through some education consultant company?

I have a couple of choices:
1) Trinity College School
2) Lakefield College School
3) Applyby College
4) Fulford Academy
Would you mind giving me some comments or suggestions for these

好唔好真係好個人
昨日同2個朋友傾開

your son's school is a private school right?

indeed, public school system in Canada is nearly the best among the Western countries. the govt has been spending the highest % of its GDP on education, compared to uk, Aussie. as such the courses offered in public schools are of great varieties.

Sounds like a good school. Would you mind sharing which area is it?

好唔好真係好個人
昨日同2個朋友傾開
佢地小朋友分別讀天主教/公校
佢地一致覺得我仔學校唔係咁好
原因1
離屋企太遠
揸車行city 唔塞車要差唔多35分鐘
好似早幾日又凍又冰雨
我揸左成個鐘先去到學校
原因2
佢地小朋友學校有d 比較閒嘅科
揀1-2科呢d 科（eg.攝影、Drama、robotic）
到時易拎高分咁average 就可以拉高好多
我仔學校冇呢d 科揀
依家讀8科全部唔可以hea 讀
原因3
佢地小朋友d 科係分sem 讀
每個sem 讀3-4科覺得輕鬆d
我仔8科就讀全年

呢邊d 後生唔覺得食大麻係壞事
因為佢地覺得政府都話合法
點解唔食得
食 or 唔食係自己選擇
我仔暫時仲肯聽我講
不過呢邊所謂人權自由
太過濫用
連幾歳豆丁喺屋企比阿爸阿媽話
都話要call 911 報警
再唔係第2朝返學話比老師知
等老師做野call 咩保護兒童xxx

我仔好鍾意呢邊
佢直情想喺度長住搵工做
暫時未諗入U 後陪唔陪

明白你, 不過都要睇子女本質, 我小時候見過好多壞嘅嘢, 不過都係冇學壞, 當然識咩朋友都有影響, 大個囝要自己學識分辨好壞

我仔好鍾意呢邊
佢直情想喺度長住搵工做
暫時未諗入U 後陪唔陪
因為唔知入到邊間
佢成績好一般
我就傾向大個仔唔洗陪咁多
但老公、老爺、婆婆都好唔放心
尤其依家大麻合法化
外邊太多誘惑
怕佢得1個人太孤單被同輩影響

冇辦法
原本有朋友話幫手睇
朋友睇左G7 下學期
中間我同老公都各自陪左約1個月
即朋友睇左約4個月
但之後返香港放暑假
跟住朋友話唔再睇
咁冇得強人所難
又已經開左頭
唯有自己辛苦d
唔搵host family 係因為唔放心
39547 要個11/12歳人仔喺陌生人屋企住
有咩事我最快都要15小時先飛到
要獨立大把機會
話我怪獸都係咁話
小心駛得萬年船

我仔讀私校
大約C$3萬/年（10個月）
如果公校大約C$1萬5/年
視乎school board
至於生活費就睇你點用
平有平用
如果租uptown condo
5xx呎租C$1500（1房）
9xx呎租C$2300（2房）
如果租house
2300-2500呎C$3000（4房）
手機上網我仔用緊C$50+稅
食茶餐室碟頭飯
平均每人C$12+13%稅+最少10% tips

因為有工作在身
同埋要照顧家中老人家
我仔學校又係day school 冇boarding

嘩!  為了子女, 父母真係    請問陪讀書, 全年學費+生活費大約多少?  你們租屋嗎？ 你囝會繼續讀至大學畢業?  那你們陪讀書至入U?  

Sorry! 好多問題

謝謝你意見, host family 有考慮, 明白訓練孩子獨立或與別人溝通係好有幫助, 但我老公唔放心, 細囡過去時只有G7或G8, 大囡會好點, 暫時都係初步想法, 要再考慮

why wouldn't you consider host family? go somewhere with less mainlanders or Asian international students, by staying with host family, she can learn a lot.
