★Anfield vs Yew Chung★

sagesage

等了一年耀中通知 Interview，Anfield 亦通知要參加他們的 Play session，綜合 EK 兩所學校各有優點與缺點，希望各位給我一些意見！

● 學費 Anfield K1全日連 Debenture 計$10,900 (10期)，YC 2-4歲 全日$12303、$13,228、$13,692 (11期)。

● YC 地點較方便、 Anfield 近界限街、小學在大圍，今年開始必須乘校車返學。

● YC 比較多國內學生，插班生英語程度低。

● YC 重視中文，程度深用國內教材，Anfield 中文較少。

● YC 擔心入小學轉其他 IS 時的英語能力。

● Anfield 小學較新，沒有成績可以看到。

● Anfield 沒有中學，YC 中學在 EK 有很多批評。

● Anfield 小學學費 $12,300，YC 小學 $15,858。

● YC 大校運作有系統，全彩色 leaflet 有很多資料(廣告)，有駐校藝術家，比較重視音樂、藝術。Anfield 細校郵寄取入學資料，只是幾張 A4 黑白單張，比較神秘。

● YC Year 11 可以選 IB課程。

tks for ur information

my daughter took half day only in 2 year old class as i gave her other extra-curriculum activities such as ballet. her classmates took full day class in 2 year old class, and they are quite independent as they need to take care themselves like tidying up bed after afternoon nap, and eat by themselves.
YC also has school picnic, just go park for half day.
if my daughter is capable, why not sending her out of hk for further study? but it is too early to plan

May I ask ur daughter was study in half day or whole day class in 2 yrs old?  And field trip they hv in 2 yrs old?Do u hv any plan to send your daughter study aboard in the future?

My daughter is in YCIS K1 class, honestly speaking, English level is good but I think it is not as good as other IS school such as ESF. 20% from mainland and 20% from jp, no foreigners.
I do think nothing is perfect. YCiS is strong in Chinese and I believe learning Chinese is more difficult than learning English. Having good foundation in Chinese and happy learning is important at this stage. I heard from other parents who hv kids in primary school that in P1, kids are able to read English books by themselves.
Having mainlanders in class is not a bad thing. Hv chance to listen and speak mandarin and my daughter is used to live with multi languages environment. One of the most advantages to study in IS is peergroup  network, which I think quite important for one to work after graduation.

母語未打好便學外語，的確有一些孩子有語言遲緩。家長博唔博，問自已好了。

我反而覺得語言遲緩是個別例子。

其實對於幼兒應"先學母語，再輔以第二語言"這原則我有d保留。

同意！就算不能掌握2種語言，都唔一定要先學母語。Bilingual since birth is possible.  最重要是讓小朋友“浸”在語言裡。

My baby is in ITLP class. She speaks only English and not too willing to speak Cantonese.  She understands Chinese but is only wiling to respond in English.  She is half Chinese.  She is only 21 months and able to construct full English sentence.  She spends most of the time with NET teacher.  I believe lang. developement is all depends on kid.

我知道既同你相反..我侄女讀YC既高年級(10歲)佢D英文好流利,唔肯講中文(但佢識)我同佢講中文都用英文應,佢話係學校講英文,but都有人講中文

啊女由YC 轉了新校一個月，英文口語表達進步很大(真的很不同)。以前系YC， 她說每天除了上課，同學都說廣東話，語言環境真的不足。 可能yc year2 情況不一樣。但我覺得除非學生的母語是普通話或英文， 在YC 可能 兩頭不到岸。
明白中文重要，但我仍寧轉校，再出外補普通話和自己教。

有可能。但其實孩子三歲左右一般己把母語掌握得不錯。與其歳幾便三四種語言，每種語言才用單字，不如到三歲左右才全句句子般學習，風險大大減少，又不會太遲。

how do you know Anfield has one to two kids with special needs?

我覺得香港家長比小朋友入is係想佢哋愉快學習多啲，我大部分朋友亦只擔心is中文唔夠"好". Btw, anfield每班都有一至兩個special needs kids, yc應該無，right?

我也是。贊同。

發覺越來越多香港家庭比小朋友讀IS,目的係想小朋友英文好，於是又有好多人話ycis英文唔夠好（可能係，所以呢d家庭比小朋友入傳統名校d英文可能更好）。我就只係想小朋友開心學習，至於英文，夠用就可以。

耀中校園沒有說英語的文化／傳統，英語好的都是校外有英語環境（父母英文人或補習），但讀得通常唔介意。

好多中學出國，中學大批傳統學校插班生，好多方面水平同小學差好遠。

大陸人佔二成，睇你mind唔mind.

Agreed.  My cousins in Australia learned to speak in English, Cantonese and 潮州話 at around the same time and with much ease, because of the "multi-ethnicity" situation at home.  
It might be harder to master the reading/writing of 2-3 languages at the same time, but I doubt there's gonna be any negative effect on one's ability to learn.
