Hi all,

We are still struggling whether we should send our boy to IB or local stream. As my hubby doesn't like the local stream teaching method & he'd prefer our boy to be fluent in both English & Mandarin.

Both of us are not familiar with the IS schools and we don't find much IS schools in Kln side that are with similar school fee as ESF / KCIS.

Our boy is 08 small baby and he'll be attending PN at TT (Dorset).....

Any suggestion regarding IS kindergarten/Primary schools in Kln side?? I would like to know more, thanks

Sorry I don't know who is Ms Tammy as my son's mandarin teacher was 楊老師.  I met her before and she was very kind.

I think this year, they want to cut cost by offering just 1 free ECA to P1 student.  Also, I compare the timetable of last year, they have added 5 more minutes for all playtime / snacks / recess times throughout the week...

Do you know Ms Tammy, the mandarin teacher?  My son said she is very 惡 and scary.  They have to change class every day for the mandarin lessons and meet her there...

In Ching Wah Street campus, 2 free ECAs for each P1 student.  On Mon and Wed.

In Braemar Hill campus, only 1 free ECA for each student (P2 to P6).  Either on Mon or Wed.

hi fatchai8,

what secondary school normally the students go after they complete their primary school (international session) ? - hearsay from other KCIS parents that most of them will continue their study in KCIS.  

will they still be able to apply local secondary school? - I think they maybe able to study in local english secondary.

Singapore International School (SIS) 唔係 ESF。另外，SIS 與 ESF 比較，SIS 較多功課及測驗。少部份 SIS 學生完成小學後會轉讀本地英中；ESF 學生則絕少讀本地中學。

Hi Yau Cheung,  thanks for your advice.  I agree that kids should be strictly dealt with sometimes. I just worry that my son will be afraid of going to school again if he can't find it interesting at school. He did enjoy school when he was in Reception 2 with Ms Wilcockson.

I notice (and as told by the maid) that my son's uniform is very dirty every day after school. I sent my maid to watch over them yesterday during playtime at the playground and my maid said the boys were playing crazily and some boys fell and laid down on the floor, actually they were just playing, with happy faces.  The teaching assistants were standing aside without stopping them.  While my son, maybe already get use to this and 'playing' together.  I think that's fine provided they won't hurt each other badly.

There will be the 'meet the teacher's day' on Sept 16 after school.  So the teacher will meet with the parents altogether?  What's this about?  I may take a day off and get to know more about the teacher...

Also, thanks to 'dubyboy', I think I will give my son more time to settle down and let him try to 'adapt' and 'survive' in school as long as he isn't hurt.

hi marsha,

"He complains a lot about the other classmates hitting and pushing him always" - 經驗上老師係會處理。 試下教小朋友遇到上述情況時，先叫打他/推他的同學停止，無效就向老師求助。

"while Miss Law is very cool and strict.  He is very afraid of going to school" - 本人較喜歡"嚴"的老師，所以我都幾鐘意 Miss Law，因為小朋友始終要多些規範；雖然小兒往年不是 Miss Law做班主任，不過 outing 時見唔少小朋友都鐘意拖住佢，我相信佢班小朋友都好鐘意佢。

"She didn't even care to say hi to the parents crowding outside the classroom." - 我每次見到佢都有都佢 say good morning or hi (除非佢忙緊)，佢每次都有笑容 or say good morning 架。不過有時上學/放學太多人(學生+老師+家長/僱工)，又真係幾難個個 say hi。

"By the way, what do you mean when you said the teacher is 'very strict in principle?" - e.g. 有次去 outing，小朋友們太興奮所以在車內越來越大聲談話，Miss Law 就一路由車頭行至車尾叫小朋友降低聲浪，唔好影響其他人。仲有好多例子，建議多到學校觀察。

"Can you tell me more about this head teacher?" - Miss Law 往年是 P2 老師 (P2W)，今年是 P1 老師 (P1W)，佢唔係 head teacher，head teacher 係 Mrs Daniel。

Have a nice day!

I think you are better to talk / or write down on handbook to the teacher, if cannot solve you may go to ask Anita for some help, I feel Anita is very good and helpful.   It may be individual case, my daughter teacher is also very nice.

Hi Yau Cheung,

my son has started school for a few days already.  He complains a lot about the other classmates hitting and pushing him always, while Miss Law is very cool and strict.  He is very afraid of going to school... I think he may need to take some more time to settle down.  I met the teacher on the first day and she was very cool.  She didn't even care to say hi to the parents crowding outside the classroom.

By the way, what do you mean when you said the teacher is 'very strict in principle'?  Can you tell me more about this head teacher?

Miss Wendy Law 係教 P2W (KCIS P2 = local 小一)。

P2 的 3 個老師(Miss Wendy Law, Miss Liu & Miss Ripley) 對紀律要求頗高 ，不過亦很友善及愛錫小朋友，好多小朋友都好鐘意佢哋架 。

P1 開始同班 ...

I read their website and they are running IB system.  I found not many graduated last year.  What do you think??  

Thank you for your help!

what is QBS?

其實我有d化, 我咪話我有8個nieces & nephews係ESF同CIS讀嘅? 大家成日話追求國際化, 佢地8個都係滿口英文架, 講廣東話都冇問題, 據聞可以普通話溝通, 不過我未聽過. 但係佢地嘅good friends全部都係...香港人學生! yes, 唔好奢望個小朋友入左一間多外國人學校佢嘅圈子就會國際化.  最近收到我姪女係美國開engagement party嘅相 (佢係cis 畢業後就去左美國某top 10 school 讀大學, 係個邊做左幾年野), party d 朋友, 九成都係黃皮膚亞洲人!

我有感而發, 我都會考ESF, 但唔係我首選, 除左中文唔掂之外, 主要係一班有半班係鬼仔,印度人等等 (我個區間esf 大概係咁分配), 咁等如將可以揀朋友嘅base 少一半.  我讀完中一就離開香港, 所以keep唔到好多香港讀書的同學, 而家返左來, 真係覺得有舊同學好好, 讀書唔係淨係求成績, 同學都好重要.
