想請教... (long story)

完全理解呢種心理, 而且感同身受. 共勉之餘都想提醒自己一句不能太執著

其實幼稚園同小學係唔需要在同一區, 如果是我我會在幼稚園階段選返九龍區, 因為小朋友還少, 太遠真的會辛苦, 等考小學再作決定要不要考中西區的小學, 不過當然如果中西區的學校是津校, 要預早搬屋以可以投考心儀那一區的小學, 如果是私校或直資就等學校真的收了又會讀才考慮搬屋吧! 私校或直資是不受住址限制!

如果是想考津小 ,  是與地址有關, 至於附屬幼稚園是對叩門有一定幫助.

你搵幼稚園時, 你要明確是為小學而舖路, 還是只需有宗教呢?   

我是基督徒, 也是35區, 當年我選幼稚園時, 我只是想在神的帶領下讓她學習和成長 . 小學只是認為35仍是九龍城而已,  到今年升小一, 我去年已考了幾間的基督教私小做back up .  

如果你 是又想有宗教陪伴囡囡成長, 又想有小學back up 的,  又不想囡囡長途跋涉 , 又看中中西區的小學,  那你真係報名考那幼稚園 , 收你的咪到時搬過海囉 .   

其實你住35網, 過海唔係太遠, 因為基乎是尾站上校車架 , 但校車費會係幾貴架  ...

早陣子, 我其實己經無乜考慮信仰o既問題, 因為而家個校網有幾間唔錯o既基督教小學, 講真, 入是但一間都ok 架, 我唔要求高...
只係早幾日同個女去做彌撒時, 見到佢好乖咁坐定定聽道理, 又覺得自己有責任去培養佢o既 ...

以我女為例，佢入讀一所基督教小學，然而我哋一家都係天主教徒，由於我同太太都重視小朋友嘅信仰成長，所以我哋從個女BB開始已經每個主日返聖堂，我女由5歲開始上堂區主日學，由於我返嘅堂區主日學都好有系統，又要求學生一定要一起參與彌撒，整個課程時間亦長（會讀7年，讀到8歲初領聖體，12歲領堅振），所以，個人覺得跟小學上聖經堂其實差不了很多。

當然，入讀基督教小學，要留意的是聖經人物、地方譯名會不同，不過我們都會給女兒解釋，所以問題不大。

誠然，天主教的小學很多人爭，所以就算是天主教徒，也有可能不能順利入讀，故此堅持返聖堂，上主日學，在家勤讀聖經，熱心祈禱，實踐信仰，反而更重要。

Anyway，祝你能夠入讀心儀天主教學校。

First of all, it should be net 12 (wanchai and Causeway Bay) that you would have more choices for Catholic schools.

I can understand this even though we are not Catholic family.  So for us, we will have preference but will not limit the choices so early.

At the end, there is one thing you need to note.  Although there are many Catholic schools, but in reality not all of them cover a lot of religious education.  So, this is research that you will have to pay efforts to look in detail.  This will not be easy!

Going back to your question (1), majority of these choices are in Net 11 (C&W) and Net 12 (Wanchai).

For (2), it is really just a personal preferences as you mentioned, so I wouldn't know how stubborn you are right now! but at least you are asking others so I don't think you are that serious.

On question (3), I do think the Sunday school is fine, but for me, I do prefer a school which can extend this to a everyday basis.

On question (4), I guess it depends on whether it is necessary to travel.  Both my daughters travel to HK island for kindergartens.

btw, SPK is in Causeway Bay, not in C&W.

Also, another point you need to review is some of these Catholic schools have private primary and some are gov't aided primary.  So you need to understand more of the mechanism for the allocation/ application process.

May be you can begin by looking into here:

Just to give you an idea:

Here are some options in C&W:
St. Clare's has both kindergarten and private primary, so getting into their kindergarten secured a seat in their primary as of this year.

Sacred Heart has both kindergarten and TWO primary schools, one of them is private and one of them is gov't aided.  Being their kindergarten students will help a lot to either schools.

And there are two St. Anthony's primary schools in net 11, which are gov't aided.

And for net 12 (Wanchai):
There are St. Paul's Nursery and St. Paul's Kindergarten, which connect with St. Paul's Convent School.  In the past, being their own kindergarten students is the first step to be their primary students.  Whether this will continue to be this way, we will need to monitor in the coming years.  But it would certainly help to get in first.

There are three gov't aided catholic primary schools for girls in this net, Marymount, St. Francis's  and St. Paul's Catholic.  I believe they are all good choices.  These schools don't have own kindergartens.

我是住港島...無錯如果是女孩子天主教學校真的有好幾間不錯的選擇...除了上述聖心及聖保祿...亦有幾間不錯的津小都是天主教....所以如果真的想讀天主教小學12網是不錯的選擇(如果考慮大抽獎及搬屋是可以接受)...
我不會打算搬屋所以都有睇過如果大抽獎, 我的區都是主要基督教學校...曾經都有猶豫...不過我覺得選學校應該以學校的校風為主...我知道堅企附近的基督教學校是不錯的...所以我都會考慮...
當然有學校的協助, 在信仰上都是一個鼓勵...所以如果真的選擇了基督教的學校...我相信我們作為家長的就要在信仰上做得更好了....

背景:
想問下大家, 小女細細個己經領洗 (catholic), 而家每個weekend 我都盡量會帶佢去做彌撒。其實我真係希望佢將來可以接受天主教學校o既教育, 但係我自己個小學網入面 (net 35), 得一間天主教學校, 仲要勁勁多人 ...

Hi Karlie,
Thanks for your sharing on the choice of school from religious aspect.
I think it all depends on how you priorize your choices, whether religion is among your critical criteria or other aspects, e.g. conduct of kids, academic, etc are more important.
Some Christian schools in HK are doing a lot in implementing the religion in the "daily teaching". Those not yet believe or not holding the same idea may consider them v. "hardsell".
By the way, would you mind sharing the good christian schools you mentioned in school net 35? I am doing some research on school net 35. Would like to know the names of these Christian schools (pm will be definately ok if you prefer).
Many thanks!

我無宗教背景, 亦唔想呀仔咁細個有, 如果佢想要信教, 不是邪教, 我也無所謂. 但我個人認為學校是個學習生活知識與人相處個人品德的地方, 不是學習宗教的地方, 辦學的只是不同的團體, 可以是官方,可以是校友會, 可以是街坊會, 也可以是宗教團體, 教什麼,用什麼理念等都應該要適量地盡量中肯. 我覺得香港的教育團體還算節制. 不會太過份. 既然是這樣, 可以入自己同宗教的當然OK, 入其他的也不是問題, 香港是個包容的社會.
因為如果好似你咁講, 我唔想我呀仔入有宗教背景的學校, 我就只能有一半的學校選了? 選學校, 我覺得教學理念和校長的為人更重要, 教學理念是一直流傳下來的傳統, 校長是是否執行得好的關鍵.
我仔34網的, 去睇過獻主會, 見到佢地好努力, 做左好多野. 睇完, 我同老公都話, 算吧啦...都係找另一間. 因為老師校長都太花時間在表現上, 搞咁多野(還是搞得唔到家), 邊有時間睇細佬. 要選一間學校最好可以見見校長, 知道校長是以學生為本的, 咁先放心把小朋友放在那裏. 好似呢, 聖三一堂小學個高校長日日都會笑容滿面check小朋友的體溫, 果個係以小朋友為本的校長. 官校呢, 就是以教師為本的學校, 總之要老師方便, 大家做定定, 唔好搞咁多野....要學的一樣不少, 但再多都無...(我呀仔讀官校)但我又覺得無所謂, 讀書就讀書, 起碼唔會搞埋D無謂野.

個人經驗分享

我自己係天主教徒, 2個女亦已領洗, 大女今年升小一
在选校的過程中, 我一直希望為女兒找到一間天主教學校, 但在自行分配中我們失敗了.

我們考到一間不錯的私小 (無宗教), 本來我們都已打定輸數, 但最終我女waiting入了另一間天主教女校(私校).

我們一直沒有选基督教學校, 怕女兒會混乱, 亦怕她在校內沒有歸屬感.

今年開始, 我們亦會讓她參加堂區的主日學, 讓她靈性上有更全面的培育. 我們希望可以自小給她好的信仰培育, 使她可以走她應走的路.

每人心中的價值觀都不同, 有人會选成績, 有人會选近屋企, 有人會选派位校網....要看你自己的想法了.

祝主內平安

沒錯...我們是天主教...就是怕入了基督教之後...於宗教上有混淆...因為大家的經文都不一樣...稱呼亦有不同...
如果能找到一間天主教+教風純樸的學校就最好了!!
