六年有感

OLDOLDMUM

轉眼間, 我的女兒在陳守仁己經到了六年班, 我和女兒對學校都有一份深厚的感情.  我想在這裏和各位分享我們的經驗:

六年前, 有三間小學都取錄小女, 兩間是受大部份家長歡迎之私校,另一間是陳守仁(TSL),當時一般人對直資學校這個名詞還很陌生, 但是內子決定要選擇TSL, 因為他相信小女可以在這裏有愉快的小學生活, 今天証明他的決定沒有錯. 小女從小便非常害羞怕事, 在TSL見證她的改變, 現在她充滿自信, 有獨立的思想和判斷能力, 最令我感動的是看見她可以神色自若地在表演台上表演和在學校開放日充當TOUR GUIDE.

學校的設施是硬件, 任由硬件有多好, 有多豪華, 但是沒有好的軟件配合, 也只不過是一個空洞的外表, 老師便是一間學校的軟件,我十分欣賞TSL的老師, 可以分以下數點:
1) 老師對學生充滿愛心, 包容, 忍耐, 不會動輒責罵處罰學生, 反  而會先了解, 然後諄諄善誘, 他們與學生的關係非常融洽.老師不會吝嗇對學生表示關愛, 他們會用談話和電郵與學生溝通,學生完全可以感受到老師對他們的關心.
2) 學校提供每個學生發揮所長的平台, 老師會發掘每個學生的特質,而不會只將機會交給少部份品學兼優的學生,在TSL每個學生都有平等機會, 以小女為例, 由極度怕羞演化成一個落落大方的可人兒, 老師實在功不可沒.在TSL, 每個學生都是平等的.
3) 六年間換了三個校長, 但是老師的工作不但沒有停滯不前,反而表現十分出色, 可見他們的工作的熱誠和主動.當然, 三個校長都十分出色, 各人都有個人之處, 個人覺得保良局對TSL都有極大的支持.

我實在非常感欣, 小女可以在TSL渡過愉快的六年小學生活, 她實在十分幸運.

我的姨甥三年前在TSL畢業，她對於自己在TSL畢業感到自豪，她非常喜歡這所學校、同學及老師。老師的悉心教導及關心，都是她喜歡這所學校的原因。TSL不僅是一間令小孩子英文程度良好的學校，也増加了她個人自信和社交能力；這確實對於她升中後有極大的幫助。

現在我的女兒也是TSL四年班生，看着她於一年班最初入學時最怕上英文科 (因她幼稚園是中文學校，不慣全英語學習) 到現在每天都很開心的期待着上英文課；她也會常常不期然的會跟你說普通話。看着她由最初怕開口跟老師說話變成現在常常跟老師於recess時談天等等....這些全部都是入了TSL後的轉變。我的女兒由一個害羞的女孩子現變成一個主動、有禮貌、守紀律、有自信的孩子，深信TSL一定功不可抹。

不僅是學生喜歡這所學校，就連我們做家長的也很喜歡！我們只希望自己的子女能真正的開開心心去上學，不僅學到書本上的知識，讓她們有一個愉快的小學童年，也能學到做人應有的態度，自然的裝備自己以面對將來的社會。我深信這些就是TSL吸引家長的地方。

學校轉校長或有幾多小孩子申請入讀，對我們來說並不重要，最重要的是我們的孩子在這所學校所得的及所學到的。況且這幾年我眼見的每一位校長都是用真誠的心去辦學，再加上好的老師們，有誰會不喜歡這所學校呢！(連守着學校門口的呀姐也是很和藹可親的呢) 我很慶幸我的女兒可以入讀這所學校

SSPA Results 2006/2008 (updated 8/7/08)

木土土, mamimummy, TINGMUM,

The ideal case is that our children will be proud to be “Camoesians” after 6-year primary school life at TSL.
The age of the school is similar to the age of our children (i.e. about 7-8 years old) and it is not so easy to have its graduates instil a sense of belonging to a new school.
Pupils of senior grades doing their best for the benefits of schoolmates of junior grades seems to be the culture here.
We should all treasure this.

請讓薪火相傳傳下去!

現在已不同以前, 當TSL 是新校只3份一入band 1!

現在是用小六畢業生考中一分班試result(不是TSA)去決定BAND 1/2/3 %. 我已叫囡囡為學校及來年畢業生, 在7月15日盡力考好個試!

oldoldmum的六年有感, 觸發了我們內心的深處. 看見一班小朋友對學校的歸屬感, 為學校而努力的堅定信念, 這一切都為他們的心靈種下了正面的根!  

對!  我們多謝師兄姊所帶給他們的，再傳下去!

mamimummy

我也十分喜愛此校, 但友人問及升中的問題, 他說由於是新校只3份一入band 1 , 我又担心教學語言的接軌問題, 請指教升中的情況, 是要家長自行四出張羅?謝謝! ...

OLDOLDMUM

上星期五, 畢業禮終於舉行, 看着女兒在台上表演的同時, 由六年前報名開始, 一幕幕影象也在我的腦海中閃過, 實在太感動, 我感謝校長, 老師, 所有其他職員及教練, 他們所付出的愛心和努力, 將成為學生們一生美好的回憶, 作為家長的我, 也有依依不捨之情, 為況是學生們呢?

OLDOLDMUM,

1)        To be honest, the name of this thread
“六年有感” is very appealing.  I believe the name of this thread has attracted many TSL parents to read & write their posts here in the past few days.

2)        I am a bit late in writing my comments here today and you have already written most of the points I want to make.  Nevertheless, I still want to add a few comments here.

-        Before choosing a school, we really have to ask ourselves what kinds of elements we want/expect from our children?  Then, we will try to look for a school that can provides such training for our children.  
A man's meat is another man's poison.  
Parents have to be clear what their expectations are.

-        We should not 揠苗助長.  P.1 pupils study P.1 textbooks, P.2 pupils study P.2 textbooks and so on.   
It's  not a good idea to over-load our children with textbooks which are 1-2 grades higher.  
Instead, we should give them a bit free time to do something that they want hopefully everyday so as not to fully occupy their minds 100%.  
Otherwise, their creativity will be hindered.  
Life is a marathon!!!  You never know who the winner is till the end of the game!!!

-        Personally, I do not opt for “one-dragon” school for my child.  As the education system in HK is changing too rapidly, I would rather choose a suitable primary school for my child for 6 years first and then observe what will happen 6 years later and to decide what secondary school we will target for.  
It's important to make our children competitive in the society these days in order to compete globally.  
No matter what kinds of secondary school our children will go to in the future, as long as they can posses the few key elements that we want, that's enough.

3)        I am not eligible to write “六年有感” at this moment.  
At most, I can only write “兩年有感”.  
But I would  like to save it and write my post here
4 years later.

各位好!

意想不到, 我只是將這六年的感受抒發一下, 竟然也可以得到各位的回應.  意猶未盡, 讀過各位的文字後, 還想寫多一點點.

身為父母, 常常都想為子女事事張羅到最好, 連學校都要最好, 但是何謂最好? 我覺得我 ...

babywitchwitch,

Yes, that's the main point.
Choosing a suitable school for our children is a matching process.
It is quite difficult to say/judge that we will choose the best school.
But rather it will be more appropriate to say that we try to choose a suitable school that hopefully can meet parents' expectation.

The positioning of TSL is somewhere between traditional school and international school.
The school follows local curriculum and the pupils will attend local examinations.
But the 30% NCS gives the school a bit of "international feel".

It is quite interesting to see that many parents of NCS opt to send their children to TSL, hoping that they can learn slightly better Chinese.
On the other hand, many local parents would like to send their children to TSL so as to have a bit more chance to speak and learn under an English-speaking enviornment.

這幾年﹐女兒是很順利地從幼稚園生活過渡到小學生活﹐她每天都很主動起床﹐背著書包出門上學﹐放學回來電話告訴我的也是開心事情﹐

- 這方面, 我個仔就差點. 在學校最緊張最開心是可以玩, 回家再玩個不停 !
