Finally I read all the comments la!!! 你們的COMMENT 好重要! 我個女依家9個月, 好CHI SIN, VICOTORIA hopeless and super commerical. Tutor time comment is just so-so. SWCK is my dream school. I like the tailor-made, flexibility, non-pushy and whole-hearted kinder and primary school. HK education is sucks, my hubby hates doing those useless interviews and self-introduction. My 99 wants her to study CIS and I think CIS is no gd anymore. I must apply SWCK for my daughters kinder coz happiness is most important. About Chinese, I studied from traditional LS. If you don't like reading chinese novel, the standard of chinese is also sucks. My classmates also wrote chinese with super wrong grammar mistake..The school fee is quite expensive but reasonable, comparable to CKY...
Add oil to all mama =)

eneresnat,

我冇去到, 因為我打電話去問左, 其實佢地要講d野, 我都知道, 但係對唔清楚佢地小學program嘅新家長會比較informative.  

冇錯, mrs. roper is A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!!!! 我仲未決定我個仔何去何從, 但係如果入ICA, 我同mrs roper講左, 希望入返佢個班.  新校請老師, 面試小朋友, 教材等佢都有非常大嘅程度參與, 而且佢有經驗, 所以我相信佢請老師唔會睇錯人, 再加上 (聽聞, 但未證實) 佢將來會兼埋做副校長 , 我相信ICA會run得好好.  不過我prefer阿仔跟佢, 始終我都識左佢成個學年, 大家都建立左關係, 了解同互信, 如果阿仔跟第二個老師, 不論幾好, 我作為家長,都要從新認識.

我今朝都去同佢傾左阿仔嘅情況, 佢都好有point, 只係montessori真係我嘅夢想, 難得阿仔學習上咁fit, 但係我個仔最大weakness係非常非常怕羞, 反影出佢自信心不足.  mrs roper都講得啱, 佢自己一個做得更好都係一個人, 出來係要同人合群, 如果佢繼續留係montessori, 只會更助長佢個人獨立性, 但係對佢全人發展唔係幾好.  雖然我未正式返過IMS, 但係聽朋友講, 另外好多次參觀學校, 面試等, 我都可以肯定, ICA一定係一間更有愛心, 更能照顧小朋友情感發展嘅學校, 所以我都好大機會會放棄我嘅蒙特梭利夢, 因為我都同意, 學術唔係人生嘅全部.  而我欣賞mrs roper講, 學術係一個小朋友有左自信同快樂後就會跟住來, 唔好心急.

學術上佢地都好有信心會做得好, 亦同我舉左不同例子, 我亦睇左阿女d功課, 真係好有heart.  佢地中文堂, 定期有水墨畫 (係普通話老師兼任).  如畫竹,就寫個竹字.  今日我睇左幅畫, 好細好細, 最初以為係佢地打印左個copy, 再比小朋友跟住寫字, 後來先知, 係小朋友自己畫.  我唔識睇水墨畫, 佢地比小朋友用科學毛筆, 但係老師真係有教d technique, 我好impressed, 因為真係幾靚, 起碼足夠令我以為係打印出來.  老師話希望小朋友可以感受下中國文化, 再而喜歡中文.

elmostoney,
I went to the cocktail last night. I was deeply impressed by Mrs Roper's passion and experience in nurturing kids. I was also impressed by the writeups (Cheung Chau trip) of her class. They exhibited some student assignments, artwork, etc. at the venue.

中文係我最大煩惱, 亦係我一直考慮IMS原因之一.  我而家教個女真係教到冇氣, 所以阿仔肯學幾多, 我就教幾多, 老公話我教得太快, 我覺得小朋友吸收, 又唔抗拒就得.  因為我唔洗佢寫字, 只係讀書認字, 所以學得好快, 佢認字閱讀已有本地小一下學期程度, 當然同佢講太抽象嘅概念就未必得, 又或要我解釋比佢聽.

我的一對 Twins 也將於9月入讀SWCK,
相信他們一定會喜歡學校!
另外, 我現在也開始留意 ICA,
雖然了解不多, 不過他們也跟SWCK一樣,
是有愛心, 有心辦學的團體,
謝謝大家一直的分享!

我相信ica唔會令大定失望, 如果唔係我唔洗到而家都仲掙扎緊比我個仔入IMS定ICA啦.  有機會大家見面可以詳談, 有d細節我唔想係到講.

Hello Elmostoney,
見到你常常讚及分享SWK及ICA的點滴, 我們都很放心女兒將會讀這學校.
Thanks

oops, yes, a parent just told me about the cocktail.  我頭先同其中一位家長傾開, 因為佢地去接放學, 又係全職媽媽, 佢同學校好熟.  我越聽越心"育", 想比阿仔去返ica (我而家都未通知學校). 我個女個班, 有兩個小朋友有esf offer都turn down左, 留返係ica.

eneresnat,  there is a celebration for ICA? or is it for small world graduation?  I don't know that there is a celebration on June 14 wor.  My daughter still has to go to school on that day.  Is it their fundraising event?

想係到同大家分享下我個女嘅進度.

我一直覺得我個女有d問題, 但係我又唔知係物野問題, 但肯定唔係智力或整體發展有物事.  過去一年半, 我帶左佢去睇不下五六個心理學家, 治療師同教育學家, 但大家都冇物頭緒, 又或冇法對症下藥.  我諗唔到, 真正幫到我嘅專業人士就係我個女嘅老師!由舊年十一月起, 佢已同我講我個女係有d野, 之後迫住我去(再)做評估, 心理學家個報告, 佢睇左兩次, 仲highlight哂.但報告inconclusive, 我試過帶我個女去做therapy, 都冇物幫助, 老師唯有定期叫我去見家長, 過去兩個月, 我見左3次!  個幾月前, 佢同我講, 佢肯定我個女去ADD(專注力不足), 佢話以佢30年嘅教學經驗, 請我相信佢.

我對佢所講, 將信將疑, 因為之前見左咁多專業人士, 都冇物用.  但我都姑且一試, 我唔想用藥, 亦因我對自然療法比較有偏好, 最後係美國訂左隻為ADD/ADHD小朋友做嘅維他命配方比阿女試, 點知就bingo左!

我係到想多謝老師, 佢真係好緊張我個女, 成日的我見家長, 而且後期仲係日曆到記低阿女有邊日專心, 希望搵到個pattern, 提供多d資料比我.  佢真係一個好有耐性, 愛心同包容嘅老師.

新小學面試學生同請老師, 老師training, 我知都係由佢負責左唔少, 我相信有佢參與, ICA will be off with a good start, 因為佢有熱誠, 經驗同愛心.
