Receive Boxhill offer -- any comment ?

jjoyma

Dear parents,

I have just received the confirmation letter of Nursery class for my little one. Could any parents share your comment about this kindergarten ?

They will open a new school in Fotan Jubilee Garden early next year. I wonder how will they assign the teacher to this new school. Will the teachers be brand new employed or experienced teacher from the Ma On Shan school !?

Does anyone know something about the new school ?

Thanks all for your attention !

其實這幾間學校都各有各好,如果不是我不會報!!不如甘講啦,我個人比較重視語言(英普),及將來我一定會比仔仔找直資學校而不是國際學校,最好男拔!所以我會先考慮語言(我深信愈早比小朋友接觸多國語言是好的,起碼英普不 ...

我要再講清楚d,我話think教得淺,是因為和劍鳴及樂基對比之下,並不是=啟思果類走開心學校路線!!大家不要誤會!!!

My twins daughters are studying N1 there.  At the very beginning, I just want to let them develop social skills, but suprisingly, I find that they learn a lot of things in Boxhill.  Every weekend, all the study books will send back to let us know what they have done and what they were taught in the week.  These include, chinese and english rhyme books, phonics book, number book, alphebat book.  Also, every week we have to submit a reading record (though it should be lastly done by parents).  I think they learn not only En and PTH, but also Cantonese as they will sing PTH and Cantonese songs as well as En songs at home.  A five weeks toilet training since start of the school.  For the first few weeks, teacher will send the daily development checklist to you to let you know how the babies are developing, e.g. are they confident to go to class by themselved, did they play with other kids, did they enjoy the circle time etc....  

I love the school teachers and my daughters also.  They are very nice and caring.  I know this school is international stream, but it seems they are puting more resources on chinese, as the competition in international school is keen, it will prepare its K3 students to go to local stream also.  

It is no doubt that their En envirnoment is perfect, to improve their chinese, should have to outsource to other private tutor class.  But as I think, if I let them study in other K, I may have to put resources to let them improve their Eng also.  So, less Chinese is not my concern. (just as you will concern less Eng in other K).

Hope these can help you all understand more on their N class.

Merry Chirstmas!

想share少少嘢俾apply boxhill嘅媽媽
以我所知.. 鄰居個小朋友 (12/2006讀K1)嗰班有2-3個11-12月嘅小朋友
我相信boxhill都收細b, 不過唔多囉! 呢個妹妹係mix嚟架!
另外.. 媽媽話佢地唔教廣東話架, 只有pth同eng.. 妹妹返咗幾個星期學就已經識唱pth歌仔!

如果大家不像我甘心急以語言為第一考慮,我會要1.劍嗚(名氣及老師愛心好及課程都好深,不用擔心升小學辛苦,所以如果小朋友都可以升上k,唔使考sc or kv,都足夠對付小學了) 2.樂基(課程都不深不淺) 3.think(課程淺,不過有好多家長極like it , 因為不想小朋友太辛苦,想佢開開心心過童年) 4.boxhill

少少補充:
ascot課程 (中英, 認知)可能深過KM, 不過佢地教得深, 考得淺, 如果小朋友叻嘅, 會學到多d嘢, N班有phonics教 (KM K1先有, 但可考慮上Sat 嘅phonics / pth班)
講溝通, hkps一定較強,  ascot係我所知最早要小朋友寫字嘅學校!

如果你諗住讀4年, 想小朋友讀傳統小學嘅, 可能KM會比hkps理想, KM嘅中英數都好平均地深, 唔會話有邊方面較弱, 不過聽聞寫作會比hkps弱, 因為hkps要寫週記~

我自己就.. 鍾意ascot hkps多d, 因為課程教得深, 又活d, 但係始終要阿仔讀傳統小學, 所以揀咗KM~

其實, luiflora已經寫哂出來....

Hi luiflora,

我決定咗 boxhill 都留位, 老公話如果可以安排到 4 月插班都希望盡快比阿 b 返學學多啲嘢, 觀察吓阿 b 同 boxhill 夾唔夾, 如果 ok, 可能會一直讀到 K 再考其他 KT KG, 如果發覺阿 b 唔多 like boxhil ...

我pm左d野比你!!請收!!

Hi luiflora,

我決定咗 boxhill 都留位, 老公話如果可以安排到 4 月插班都希望盡快比阿 b 返學學多啲嘢, 觀察吓阿 b 同 boxhill 夾唔夾, 如果 ok, 可能會一直讀到 K 再考其他 KT KG, 如果發覺阿 b 唔多 like boxhill, 咁我哋會考慮 9 月開始返 Think.

(因為 boxhill 老師話要留咗位先知安唔安排到插班)

如果明年冇插班返, 咁我就要從 think & boxhill 做決擇.
當然我首選係 kim ming, 若果真係收咗就一定報佢.

實在好強
而家對呢幾間學校有更加深既了解喇
THX

我BB係0812細B
所以我既方法就係報多幾間
基本上沙田/馬鞍山區比較出名又有N班既學校都報左
而家只係IN左4間
只有一間收(好時光)不過無比留位費
而家等緊其 ...

嘩, 你真係好媽媽search d info 好足...
其實我同你嘅心水差唔多, 唯獨我怕我個女唔夠人爭, 所以boxhill 都算係我後備...
我之前仲冇諗過報而間tim, 不過可能我俾我個女返咗佢個playgroup, 我覺得真係唔錯, 可能d 人話d 老師未必個個都係鬼, 但佢地d miss d 英文都真係發音好準... 間學校又靚... 反而我就冇諗過think(kln or mos), 首先我唔鐘意mos think, 另外可能我覺得如果俾佢讀kln think, 不如讀返近自己果d, 因為佢課程又唔係深... 只是個人見解...

bigbighei

我對孖b 都收咗讀am class!

KennyDaddy

hehe... yes, as I would only consider those good ones around the MOS Central district....
I considered Greenfield before but finally decided not even to submit the application.  (it seems that the 09-10 N1 class is still open for application....)

咁你真係幾危險喎
BOXHILL同THINK都係幾熱門既學校
我都係打定輸數(THINK都仲未IN)
另外樂基就更加無可能啦
我仲IN左GREENFIELD(呢間我有信心佢會收我個仔)
仲有康傑、榮光、隆享、愛鄰、匯豐幼兒學校(大角咀)我都 ...
