眼見怪獸LS對小朋友身心折磨，雖然早左D, 我好認同IS理念, 想趁早認識下點樣為我三個小朋友做好入IS的準備 ...
CC816, i like your thoroughness in your questioning. Here's my take:
1) To train bilingualism it is best to have one parent per language and not deviate from it (to your best effort). So the father can speak in English all the way. Never rely on Filipino English! Horrible accent & improper grammar!! The only good thing is that the kids can absorb the language while the Father converse with the helper. Beside speaking directly to the children, having English conversation around the household is important too.
2) Like what others said, the key is not 谷英文 but 浸英文, so you should be looking for expat kindergartens like Woodlands or Greenfield. They have plenty of branches on the HK Island. Set up playdates with English speaking friends also helps.
3a) Yup ESF, if they do not increase their fees in the near future, which they slowly would, unfortunately.
3b) but ESF Hillside kindergarten is impossible to get into, plus given the priority is now gone... You should apply anyhow; it's a lottery. I'd go to a quality expat Kindie if i were you.
4) For some schools, even if you want to buy a debenture it is in such a high demand that it is impossible to obtain one!
5) Really differs from school to school. You must target your schools before asking this question.
6) For most interviews, it mainly depends on the child. Some doesn't even interview the parents. For some, yes, if you can carry a good conversation with the interviewer the chance of getting in may increase. Again, this question is school specific.
7) Yup, aim for through-train schools as much as you can. I can foresee the competition at the secondary entry in a few years time will be quite fierce.
8) Sorry, our family does not aim for local universities so i cannot answer you there. Others please help, thx!
9) As long as you are aiming for IS, don't expect the child to have a high level of Chinese skills. How one trains the child in Chinese would involve lots of intelligence, effort & sometimes it depends on the child as well. From what i observe, most ESF & IS kids do not like Chinese, but there are exceptions.
