St Clare's versus St Paul's Catholic

candeelian

Thanks God. We got offers from both school. Both schools are similar, traditional girl's school which suits my daughter. The only thing is that I prefer an English primary school, but St Paul's Catholic ranks higher.

Which one will you choose?

in terms of Eng environment, st Clare is better

Agree. Personally would prefer St Clare's culture and curriculum. (More western/French approach)

We have decided to choose st paul cat. I can supplement my girl with English，whereas I cannot provide the hardware which the school can provide. I feel very comfortable about this decision.

Thanks all for your view. Giving up either one is a heart-pain.

I read from ek that the building project may likely delay for at least one more year, that means your girl may need to stay in Chai Wan at least for 2 years.

The campus in Chai Wan is quite good. It's not as modern as other new schools but it is tidy and the space is enough for a primary school though it does not have its own sports playground. The environment there is also nice although some people may not like the location.

For reference. We got SC, SH and SPPCS last year and finally chose SPPCS as there's no school fee and we have a little sis following =)

其實要學好中文比英文難好多............
我囡讀私幼睇得較多英文書依家變咗冇咁like睇中文書我有啲擔心

我自己覺得中英同樣重要,我小時中英都唔叻,不過英文還可靠日後努力和浸淫特飛猛進,相反中文就.....

首先恭喜樓主, 二選其一都還得神落.

兩間都識人讀, 少少個人意見：

樓上說種視英文，是嗎？ 我識的朋友說重視中文多於英文，請指教

staying in Chai Wan for a while is not a problem for us. In fact, I quite like the campus in Chai Wan. It is spacious and comfortable. SC's campus is small anyway.

Hi Elbar,

I guess in that case the girl has a younger sister so SF guarantee a spot for her sister.  Therefore every case is different.  Btw, you better assume SP will stay in Chai Wan til 2020 instead of 2019 , in case the completion date of the project delays.

If eng primary school is yr 1st priority, then better choose st clare’s

candeelian

It is a very hard decision for me. I like St. Paul Catholic needless to say. Having said so, there are not many English primary schools now in HK. It is hard to replicate an English environment because English is almost non-existent in our everyday life, to strengthen needs a lot of effort. I don't want to miss out the golden language learning time.
