Thanks for your suggestion.

不用太客氣！只是一點小分享而已。

作為父母，大家都希望替子女做點準備及安排，好讓他們能進入一所心儀的學校讀書。既然妳已認定KTS是目標，那就對準目標前進吧。

祝妳及囡囡好運，希望日後有機會在KTS見。

If the letter said that you can dress casual, then I think it's OK.

My son is in P1 now and he participated interview last year. I believe things are not changed this year.

Anyway, we just let him dress smart casual -- a shirt with trousers, plus a pair of casual sport shoes. Make sure it looks tidy and clean, then I think it's OK.

So does it mean the kids need not to dress up formally?  One of my friends who had attended the 2nd in before advise me to let my son wear sport shoes.  I just wonder whether that's proper or not.   ...

Yes, they may ask kids to follow instructions to play some games -- stretching legs and arms, bending down and jumping up etc ... It's more convenient for girls (mine is a boy) to wear trousers.

It's hard to say on whether your daughter will be in an disadvantageous position or not.

Seems your daughter is good in academic, which is definitely a plus. However, school is a place where they have to interact with others (teachers and students). Thus, in my opinion, willing to communicate, share and express ideas, plus getting along well with others are also important.

Anyway, the good thing is: You know what is good & bad for your kid, which simply means that you will find ways to keep her goods and also improve her bads.

If I were you, I will let the school knows that she has all those good qualities, but at the same time, will need to cooperate with the school in overcoming her weakness on expressing herself.

Again, I can say no kids is perfect -- Some could be smart, but they might be too talkative and not like to follow rules. Some could be quiet and not very active, but they can always delivery reliable works (i.e., write carefully and tidily) etc ...

So, don't worry too much as they are still small. There are lots of rooms and chances for us to help them overcoming those weakness and developing them further.

My experience with KTS so far is that: They are very supportive to the "school + family" cooperation & partnership in nuturing / educating kids. They are willing to invest resources in backing up parents on this.

Hope it helps.

Don't wory.  I attended the 2nd in by myself.  Daddy didn't go.  Add oil!

Thanks for your tips.  It is very useful.  My girl is in K2 only this year. but I am so interested in KTS.  She is not too expressive and talkative.  So, I am afraid that her character will disadvange in interview process.    But her acadamic is very good. Will awards help in your experience ?   She has won quite a few painting awards.   A few ( merit ) in recitation of poem. Spelling cup _ Gold ( 1st award.) , two maths cups awards.

Kindly advise.

我明白in家長，最好父母同行，但我另一半出了外地公幹，是否我多數不被取錄呢？我很擔憂。 唔知有無家長好似我得1人去面試，而可以成功呢？

Don't need to worry too much. If this is already the fact, then just face it and simply find ways to deal with it.

In fact, my husband also need to travel for business quite a lot ... And we are quite getting used to leverage every tools and chances to prepare for a scenario like this.

Again, sincerity is the most important thing.

My small tips to you for this scenario is:

1) Have daddy to record a voice clip / short video to introduce the family and cover some words on his expectations to kids + schools etc ... Ask for permission to present this in cell phone / laptop PC during the interview;

2) Or have daddy simply write a simple letter to cover something similar, then you can bring and share it during the interview with the panel. And that will also share the same purpose.

Once again, this is not perfect, but still can show to the interviewer that your whole family is sincere and caring about your kids, plus the interview opportunity granted. I do believe the interview panel can feel that as a family, you (the parents) are already trying your best to support your son / daughter to get into a good school, like KTS.

Hope this helps.

近排忙於幫阿仔準傋P1第一個Test，所以少咗上嚟！

時間過得真快，去年我還在四處張羅去問面試要怎樣準傋，一轉眼已在這裡看到有新一年的P1小朋友已被取錄，恭喜恭喜!

還在等候的家長，也祝你們好運。但的而且確，做好準傋是很重要。

Interview的題目樓上好多家長都Share咗，不重覆了。我的小Tips是: 要有誠意及認同家校合作的重要性。

KTS會給與家長不少機會去一起参與教導小朋友。最近，我有幸地參加了學校舉辦的一個專為P1家長舉辦的增益課程。當中學校請來輔導主任、高年級的家長和校長跟我們分享管教子女的心得，當中實在獲益不少。

這充份顯示學校對家校合作及家庭教育是十分看重，也願意投放資源去協助家長去發揮支援角色。
