我的囡囡的確是個好孩子，但最教我們感動的，是當我們向她解釋完8間小學的特性和優點、叫她選擇時，她竟答道：「邊間小學「肯定」可以收埋妹妹讀嘅我就揀邊間！因為如果妹妹有事要幫忙，我就可以即刻叫齊同學揾老師去幫佢！」

聽 ...

I love your daughter so much! My kids (elder sister and younger brother) are also friendly and close, hope they also have good/strong love when they grow up together.

是首名子女 + 聖公會領洗紙（但無計過即係幾多分），但放榜前的星期五打電話去問，校務處姐姐話今年Old Girls’ 子女報讀極多，像我們這些不是Old Girls的是百幾二百人只能抽剩下的不足10個位，所以叫我要有心理準備….。

當然 ...

所以能力範圍許可的話，孩子考到最好的學校在那區、就搬去那一區吧。

實際是18間，因為我之前沒有列出囡囡已考但仍未公佈結果的：香港培正小學及嘉諾撒聖心學校私立部。還有已獲second in但我們沒有去的九龍塘學校（小學部）。

Thanks for your positive comment.

My girl is currently studying in St. Catherine International KG.

(But I don't think that's what really counted.)

Well, I am the father....

But of course my wife did the larger part of this endeavour, she is the chief "trainer" for the interview (except for the English part which I would took over) and responsible for briefing our girl about different characteristics of various schools.

I would be the one to mind the time schedules and did the logistics (you know, looking at interview requirements, planning the routes, knowing about how the system works and comparing the schools, etc.).

So it was quite a team work, with the center of which being our lovely daughter of course!!

男仔年紀這樣少都懂得愛惜妹妹，實在是難能可貴...。

What you have said is very true. We did stick to the rule of only 2 schools per day, with the exception only one morning, during which we have two interviews within the same district with reasonable time gap between them (in our daughter's case, it was 8:45AM and 11:00AM).

And its also true that we had to reschedule some of the schools to other time, and resulted in "No" or "Waiting" from some of the schools affected as listed before.

It involved very tedious and careful planning on parents' part --> It was really hard work for us.

Just never, never made it so for our daughter, and I think that was the key to our daughter's very positive experiences during the whole course of interviews.

我亞仔又係話想將來和亞妹一間，話要照顧亞妹， 所以我亞仔都放棄直資了。

Dear Yingmum,

Have not/Will not register in 3 of them. Have already "released" the other 3 of them by informing the schools of our decisions. That just left two for now (as for why we have to leave one more, it is because we are still plea for their acceptance of our "younger" daughter in their K.1)

Best regards

咁你地幾時會Release D唔要的位?

至於您講的Are you kidding? 我想是implied囡囡是否interviewed太多吧！

其實真實的情況是，除了DGJS外，囡囡每次interview完出來都係話「好好玩呀！」或是「真係好好玩呀！」。而且我地又會用說話及貼紙讚她做得好的地方，（做不足的地方就不會現場講，只會在家中遊戲時開心地remind一下她）然後真係會帶了她去玩！這樣make sure每次面試對囡囡都是一次開心愉快的經歷。

否則，像我那次與囡囡親眼所見的「奇景」，就真係見一間都嫌太多：是在聖士提反書院（赤柱）的面試等候區前，一個小女孩眉頭深鎖，額上的「火車軌」比我的還要多，原來是她的爸和媽、分別在她的左右耳邊NICAM疲勞轟炸「記得講爸爸是會計師」、「記得要拍好椅」、「記得要講您聖誕節去了紐西蘭」…. 、「記得要笑」。當然，那女孩進去和完成後都沒有笑。

So, I think it is really about creating a positive experience for our daughter.

As to “why” we should help our beloved daughter to interview so many schools, it is simply because of three words: unpredictability, prudence, and confidence(building).
