本人小女入選了來年的小一, 我之前都有看過學校的資料才報讀,而我都好信任及對學校的教學方式好滿意及認同. 但當我陪小女兩次面試其間,看到學校的學生俾我的感覺好似不是十分純樸有禮, 到底是我一時看錯,還是其他呢. ...

培僑的學生大部份都是活潑自信, 他們都較活躍, 不怕羞, 勇於表達, 這與學校選生有關, 因為要配合教學模式.
本人就很喜歡及認同培僑的教學理念, 學習輕鬆但絕對可以學到很多知識, 課程絕不簡單, 而且可以培養小孩樂天, 健談, 自信的性格, 在思維發展方面有很大的空間.
本人覺得小孩在學知識之餘, 思維發展及樂天性格亦很重要, 因為將來要面對社會上的種種事情, 要懂得處理.

小朋友有讀寫障礙, 培僑有無支援?

你有無誤會咗呀。從來無人話PK的細路純樸，只有話活潑自信。你係唔係搞錯咗培僑小學呀。

Sorry I have just read your question now, so sorry for the delay.

To answer your other question, my son got the bruises by running and falling when chasing with other kids..which is normal.

As regard to morale, yes I regard it very highly, especially so when we are all christians. But I donot understand why there is a problem, do you hear anything on this regard about PK?

I have two kids studying there now and I am very very happy with PK, especially with my youngest son, he can now read mandarin perfectly(he did not speak a word or read mandarin before he went to PK).

And I do not see morale is a issue at PK either, the example you gave is very extreme, but to assure you I do not encounter any morale problem so far so can not really tell you much.

In fact I have personally experienced very happy occassions when dealing with teachers at PK, generally speaking they are efficient and professional.

Both of my kids love PK and my younger daughter would be attending its form 1 next year .

I hope you can answer your questions.

As regard to conduct, I really do not see any problem, I myself is a liberal parents, they are allowed to reason with me and i would say sorry if they are right.

As far as I know, PK allows kids to r ...

Very accurate description. That is what I like about PKC.

Hi macaw,

Thanks very much indeed for your response.  You make me feel better.

Your experience is a good one that I should always remember.  It is really a pity if one doesn't have a happy childhood, no matter how good his/her academic level is.  

Does your kid find difficulty in handling the Chinese subject?  My kid finds it hard to do the "Yu Wen Nian Xi" on his own.  Just wonder whether you need to give a lot of guidance to your daughter.  (Actually I find it hard to do it  by myself sometimes and I may not come up with the answers readily.)

Does your kid need any tutoring on Chinese?  (I am considering about this but just wonder it is too hard to find a suitable one, particular in view of their syllabus)

Hi macaw，

Thanks for your response.  Perhaps I should take an opportunity to talk with the teacher of my son as well.  By the way, he is also in G3, same as your daughter.



Wow!! You ...

Hi ononchu,

I never enjoyed my school years in HK.  I did very very good in primary but then I did not do very good in secondary as I hate it when they asked me to recite those things written by others, follow steps laid down by teachers.  I did very well after leaving HK.

Don't worry about that much.  Rather then making them hate study, let them have some happy time when they are kids.  They will find their way later when they get older.  I do not find their academic is behind other school.  Their Chinese iseven harder than most traditional school.  Mathsis same as others.  English is good.  But your worry happens to most HK parents who were bought up by the HK system.

I was reluctant to find a tutor for her in the beginning as I never been to tutoring in my life.  I am quite against it.  But some kids do need help. My elder daughter is one of them.  May be you should try to look for a tutor.  Don't go to the conventional tutor, I found her a native speaking tutor who understand how their school teaches.

Hi macaw，

Wow!! Your daughter is really great in reading.   For my son, he also enjoys reading but his level is not as great as your daughter.  

Yes, due to the less homework in Pui Kiu, it allows kids to have room to do things that they learn, be it be reading or playing.  This is the thing that I like Pui Kiu.  Nevertheless, sometimes I do worry about the level of my son's academics.  Frankly, sometimes this shakens my belief for Pui kiu (and its approach of happy, activity based learning).  I am really in a dilema cause I do not want my son to be burdened with the endless homework and examintations in traditional schools (but are tempted by their apprarenly better academic performance)?!

Sometimes I wonder perhaps it is not the problem of the school.  After all, each kid has different ability and maybe the problem rests with my son.   That's why I am strugging the right type of school for my little son.

Hi ononchu,

my girl is also in PKC G3 and younger one in K3.My older girl has the same problem as your older one.  Which grade is your he/she in?  I discuss with her teacher and she said most kids will have more difficulty in written works.  I found her a tutor who also said that my daughter's spoken English is very good, just need some fine tune for her to adapt into writing.  She is doing fine now after 2-3 months of tutoring.

The best thing I like about the school is the kids love reading.  This is very difficult to find in traditional school as they don't have much time left after so much homework to do.  She can now read those English chapter books for over 200 pages by herself and finishes very fast.  Her project are very creative and my husband and I love it.

I do not find any problem with discipline with my girl.  Sometimes she told me that some kids in her class are very naughty.  I think this is normally and happens in every school.  I have no doubt that the kids in this school are happy and they are proud to be there.

你話(It seems that it is the school's policy not to correct the mistakes, fearing that students' interest in writing be discouraged),

但上家教會網頁見到 "溫校長的話":

教師有責任及時將家課批改好，回饋給學生。

Dear Pui Kiu parents,

I have two sons, one studying in Pui Kiu and the other one in K3 now.  While the result of admission to Pui Kiu 2011/12 has yet to be announced, I would like to seek your advice about school selection for my little son.

Undoubtedly, Pui Kiu is a good school.  I find that my elder son enjoys his school life and he said that he likes his school.  Pui Kiu allows the kids to run around the playground during the recess time.  They can also choose activtiy that they like during the free time.  So, the school is very liberal and it has room for one to develop.   

Moreover, the language environment in Pui Kiu is also sound.  The teachers are very professional and they have a heart for education.  I find that my son's spoken Mandarin and English has steady improvement over the years and I would attribute this to the success of school.  (in Pui Kiu, even the public announcement are made bilingual in Mandarin and English).   

My concern over Pui Kiu is : in comparison with other well-known established tradtional schools, would its academic performance be lower in standard?   

My worry is based on my elder son's performance in written work (be it with Chinese or English).  Indeed, it is not uncommon for me to spot wrongly written Chinese characters in his Chinese work.  His English writing always contains spelling and grammatical mistakes.   (It seems that it is the school's policy not to correct the mistakes, fearing that students' interest in writing be discouraged)

Sometimes, I feel very insecure and wonder how would my son perform when he promotes to higher grades?  Is the "problem" due to my over-worry and my misunderstanding over the school's direction?

Should I choose Pui Kiu for my little son, if only I have the chance to choose?  (The compeition is so keen and it is not a guarantee that siblings got admitted)

HK Devil,
how did your child get the bruises?

FatBear

HK Devil,
I have the same concern as Kelvlam.  I like the things you like about PK, maindarin teaching, children are respect to voice out their mind.  But givne that morale is a person's core or ultimate success and happiness factor PK's free styled school is the main reason that deter me from enrolling.  A person's morale is very important and it's not only shaped by the parents values but also all those people that the child interacts with in the school, on the the school bus and just anyone could contribute to his/her values or beliefs.  Would you not agree that a professional who has low morale standard (do anything to achieve their goals or simply shows no respect for others) is damaging to the society and his/her family?  Morale is the utmost of a person's value.
My first child is now in a local school with some morale problems so that's why I want to be sure for my second child that PK is the right school for our children.  We could not afford time to keep on looking and changing school for our children.
your information is vital for us
thank you

你好~請問咩係紅色背景呢??好多人都話呢間學校係''公產檔''~姐係咩意思呀??

您好！

您提到的問題都是傳統學校常見的，就是功課多，考試測驗多。這是現實，不容易改變。不過，您說您的女兒每天晚上做功課做至八點多，這對部分傳統學校的學生來說，這是小兒科，因為他們一般都做到十點，甚至是十一點。反過來，我擔心的是你女兒的情緒問題，您要瞭解她除了因為累而哭以外，還有什麼原因。而後針對這些原因幫助她才是最佳解決辦法。

至於培僑每天平均有2-3樣功課，一般一個到一個半小時內就能完成。而"培僑"的進評數量,一年只有一少次。培僑的老師 對孩子一般都不兇。要申請做培僑的插班生會很困難，但是可以嘗試及鍥而不捨的敲門才有一線希望。

祝您好運！

本人女兒就讀大圍某小學的三年班,因功課及某科老師給與太大壓力,令她每天放學後,仍要拖著疲累的身軀,一邊說累,一邊哭的做功課做至晚上八點幾,期間,她為了要讓自己清醒及能集中精神,仲多次要求去洗面,看見女兒的情況,我真的很擔心她的壓力總有一天爆煲.

  因此,我想了解有關轉校問題,在這兒,我看到"培僑"是一間活動式教學的學校,也受到家長喜愛,這所學校的功課量會很多嗎??平均每天會有多少功課??(小女現就讀的學校,每天平均有7-8樣)而"培僑"的進評數量,一年會有多少次??(小女現就讀的學校,一年會有4次進評及4次總評的),還有的是....培僑的老師會否對孩子很兇??(小女就是怕了現在某科的老師,因為她看見某同學默書改正時錯字,便被罰抄50次,弄至她做功課時要小心奕奕的,不停的寫完又擦,擦完又寫,即使只是4版補充都要做成5個幾鐘~)

  最後,我也想了解要申請做培僑的插班生會很困難嗎??需要甚麼條件呢??

感謝各家長解答本人之疑問,謝謝!
