今天放棄了？

St Paul Catholic of course, 不過中學部申請緊轉直資

朋友剛放棄了以上兩間去左ISF. According to her, 唔去St. Paul 係怕辛苦,而VSA vs ISF 則 ISF 比較優勝。  我諗應該 St. Paul 好過VSA. 就算打算到外國升學, 讀本地學校完全冇問題,反而我身邊有數個case係由HK local school 轉外國因程度高,外國既學校主動要求小朋友跳一班,慳左一年時間.  我自己都係HK local school 去外國讀大學,年年攞獎學金。
小朋友都係趁小鞭策下好D.  Besides, 係St Paul 隨時可入VSA, 係VSA 就幾難入得返St Paul.

"升三年級, 她只能做到PASS那類人, 彈得不太有感情......."

但關鍵在於已考了5級樂理嘛. 不易啊~~! 努力!

Local primary + IB secondary is one option.  If parents consider switching from local stream to VSA IB, they need to ensure the students could study in an English environment.  I know of a few boys from St. Jo switched to VSA in year 7 and have difficulties in understanding teachers in class.  Apart from Chinese, all subjects are taught in English in secondary.

功課量都適中，咁我都放心好多！
我相信在低小一星期測一科唔難溫習嘅！

Hi cmchang0927,
嘩你囡咁犀利可以上到咁多課外活動。
我想問badminton, 田徑是否在校學，其餘喺外邊學？另想再問甚麼是＂Reader course"?
平日你有冇幫囡囡溫習，還是差不多到測考先嚟溫？
你介唔介意比你囡囡課後嘅活動時間表給我作為參考，讓我如何替囡囡安排時間！

cmchang0927, 我囡囡都係9月入讀SPCP小一。我想請問你點樣安排課外活動時間？返下午班好似好難安排咁。想安排去星期六上午又唔得(因為要上短週)。如果係學校學野，要幾點返去呀? 午餐係唔係要自己帶呀?

Moreover, 番上午班的時間好正的, 我女仲有時間學琴, 打鼓,兒童合唱團, 學校badminton, athletics team and 銅管樂, 另加中文作文班, 英文READER Course 同數學，這個十一月還可應考六級piano.......... 不過三年級是下年班便會cut兩樣，怕Ｄ野深左同時間不見駛。。。。　ＰＳ，　佢仲晚晚九時半瞓。。。

嘻嘻, 不用担心, 我女一年級時四至五樣, 仲有一兩樣係改正.......... 到左二年級, 好多時都係四至七樣, 都係有兩至三樣改正..............
不過, 測驗就一星期一科, 一年四測二考, 都測到你唔當一回事, 好多人星期三測驗星期六日照去玩

pooh仔

我囡囡九月入讀SPPCS小一，我想問你一日得四至五樣功課指幾多年班呀？
我都擔心有成十樣八樣或更甚！

cmchang0927

老實講, 谷同唔谷, 見人見志

比起一D學校, E.G 基灣, 舒服好多啦, 一日先得四五樣功課, 係測驗密D, 但D卷比起基灣那些又唔算深, 再加上學校又冇分精英班, 又冇名次, 老師完全冇比壓力, 又有中學BACK UP, 反而我覺得如果係個D好勝心好強既家長就搵D有名次精英班既學校好D, 咁先顯示到你小朋友既實力(我有兩名要湊, 博唔到咁盡, 啱我)

不過VSA係國際學校, 兩種學校都不一樣的, 如果你比較SIS, CIS, VSA, AIS, etc就啱啦.... 如果你諗住好快比小朋友出國讀書, VSA較適合吧!  St Paul's Catholics 只是一間普通的津小, 英文一定沒有VSA強的

St Paul Catholic 唔會太谷啩，有冇現讀SP Catholic's 家長知道可分享吓呢？謝謝。

Two entirely different systems， one is HKDSE and another IB. Former targeted at local universities while IB is suitable for families planning to send the kids abroad. In terms of learning style， former one is traditional spoon feeding and drilling， with much pressure from on going exams and assessments while latter （VSA）is more focused on learning experience with much emphasis on presentation skills. Both systems have their pros and cons. If your family is prepared to invest in time of drilling and kids are not reluctant， i personally think it's not a bad idea to start in a high pressure environment and think of switching to IB to widen the kids' horizons when they reach year 7.

我都會投St.Paul 一票
