嶺南小學暨幼稚園．．．其實好唔好？？？

WDL

我有考慮幫個仔仔報出年”嶺南小學暨幼稚園”．．．
”嶺南”呢個名好似好勁，校舍又位處半山區，好似係好好．．．
不過點解好似網上無咩人評論，有無人知道點間幼稚園究竟好唔好．．．
如果邊位有多少了解，或者有子女讀緊，唔該可唔可以比Ｄ意見．．．
唔該唔該．．．

Hi samsheep,

My son do enjoy his school life in Lingnan (N1) very much.
He woke up at about 7am every morning and ask for go to Lingnan.
The teachers there are very caring.

Greatdad

Our boy also received a whole day offer for K1 next year (2011), but still considering this against an offer from Precious Blood (AM) or Ling Liang (PM).
How would you choose?

Dear all, I have the same concern as you guys...my son has been offered Lingnan AM class and Victoria PM class for pre-nursery in August...I finally decided to choose Lingnan after talking to two mommies who have their kids studying in Lingnan PN before....both of their kids are now studying in K1 SKH Central...They said Lingnan is very good in discipline and manner training...For K1 interview, many good kinders like well-behaved kids instead of kids who can manage few languages.

The other reason I didn't choose Victoria because my kid has been attending their playgroup for 1 year...it was only fair and teachers are not very caring

Besides, when looking at the P1 allocation for Victoria, around 20% of their graduates went to Victoria primary...so it all depends on whether you want your kids to enter local or international school.

我亦有朋友是這樣，純因connection而與學校冇關:idea:

點算好 - 如果無人事/connection, 會唔會P1派得好差?  真係好担心 ....

Yes, I have this problem too. My girl got offer for PM class. I asked one of my friend (teacher). She said this school has very good 'word of month' from 'insiders'. But still, I have doubt due to the remote location and this school is less 'well-know' in compare with others. When I talked and asked other mommy-friends, not very much heard about this. I called to the school to see whether they have school bus from Kowloon side. The answer is strictly no, but they have conneting bus from MTR station. MTR for helper with my BB is too risky!!! Any one same as my case?

凡事唔好睇表面, 嶺南家長好多都比較well off, 亦有d家底人脈, (可以講句嶺南o係d"上流社會"中聲譽唔差), 入到好既學校亦各自有不同原因, 嶺南係有愛心既好學校, 呢樣我都從各朋友口中聽到, 但至於考小一.......真係好多因素影響的

Actually, Lingnan KG graduates got quite good offers from private/DSS primary schools including St Paul Co-ed, DGJS, etc.  I don't know why but perhaps they thought the students are more disciplined despite the rather low (or easy) academic standards in Lingnan KG.  

My younger children will be going to Victoria PN this year and I shall see the differenece (another reason why I don't choose Lingnan again is because I have moved away from HK Island).

I don't know anything about 蘇浙 so can't really compare...  K3 graduates from Lingnan KG do get into a variety of 官津/直資/私校.

Hi Ema, I heard that St Paul's Co Ed takes kindy graduates from Lingnan.  Is that true?  I'm trying to decide between Lingnan PM class and Victoria AM class.  Is Lingnan's morale/ EQ training 'better' than Victoria?  What about the English training? Any insights you can give would be much appreciated. Thx.

Thanks. 真係好矛盾, 又想仔仔讀得開心, 又想成績唔會落後以保持競爭力。 其實官津/直資/私校全部都係我的目標 (魚翁撒網), 是否應該比小朋友係幼稚園開始習慣艱深的學習態度呢?

My child was in Lingnan KG but not Lingnan Primary School.  I have a friend whose daughter was in Lingnan Primary School before but she is now in Australia.  Overall comments were good (Cantonese was the medium of instruction) but there were too few classmates in the class (only 10+).

Thanks for your sharing.
Any comments for Lingnan Primary School?
May I know that their primary school is conducted by Cantonese or English?
How any time will spend on English/Mandarin/Cantonese per day?

Does you daughter enjoy her school life in Lingnan Primary?
Do you feel that the language/academic standard of your daughter is up-to-standard?

My child studied at Lingnan from N1 to K3.  Now she is in P2 (and in fact in a dream school of many parents).  

Overall, Lingnan provides a happy environment for children.  The teachers were nice and ok though more proactive contact with parents would be better.  Moreover, I think the teaching of Chinese and English certainly had room for improvement.  Contrary to many have said, they didn't teach too easy stuff (at least in K3) but the problem is their curriculum wasn't designed to reinforce children's learning from time to time and hence the children (at least my child) simply forgot the more difficult words they had learnt the next day (there was no dictation or other assessment).  But of course if there were dictations or assessments, my child and I wouldn't have been so happy during her KG stage.  It really depends on what you want.
