Think International School

so.san

功課唔算少 (i feel), 但有些小朋友會在學校完成部分, 視乎有沒有時間, 咁就好D!

K2每天都有一版中文字 (25-30個), 一版數字lor. 如有興趣, 有心機時好快做完. 今月起還要做讀書報告.

International class 沒有功課的.

maria_lai,
我係報morning class的，但現在只有afternoon class，think話在十一月將有4-5個小朋友入讀上午，18 Oct interview, 到時睇下有無得返上午!

jujuy,

I applied in mid-Sep but Think said it's better to have interview in end-Nov or early Dec when my son is older.

I've just called Think to check if my son can be allocated in the morning class if he has an interview earlier.  I said a friend's kid born in Nov but has been told he may be allocated in the afternoon class (ie. your case lah).  A lady said they've employed a new teacher and will open a new morning class in Nov so my friend's kid should be able to join morning class.  I don't know if it's true but you may check on your interview day.

I hope my son can join the morning class 'coz it's more easier to set the schedule.

vinci,

I'm happy to share info with all of you 'coz I've also got many info at here.  In fact, I didn't know Think before I join BK.  If I didn't join BK and no mom shared info, I was still busy on finding a proper kinder.

Other BK moms are nice and willing to share their info of Think as well.  I've known much of the MeiFoo branch which help me lot.

Is your son studying in MeiFoo K2?

You're right that it's better to have the interview later.  My husband also said I'm too nervous.  I just worry it's too late to apply others if my son can't get into this kinder.  You know many kinders already starts application now and there would be limited kinders that I can apply in Dec.  Do you think I should apply few more for backup?  Oooops, maybe I'm too nervous again.

Thx!!

maria_lai:
i must check on my intervew day. i hope my son can join morning class too, because he need sleep on afternoon.

除了think 仲有無讀其他?

maria_lai

jurjury,

Yes, I want my son to join morning class as well with the same reason as yours.

I've only applied Think as it's the one which suits most of my requirement, but now I'm wondering if I should apply few more.  You know I'll have my interview in end-Nov or early-Dec which is recommended by Think.  They said it's no hurry to see my son 'coz he'll join in Jan05.  I agree with them 'coz my son's development will be better than now.  However, I worry what'll be happend if my son can't get into Think after they see him in Dec.  You know many kinders start application now and there'll be limited choice for me in Dec.  I talked to Think on my concern and they said there should be no problem to get in.

Maybe I'm too nervous.  What do you think?  Should I request for an interview earlier?  Should I apply few more for backup?

maria_lai

Vinci,

You're nice and sweet.  Thx!

You've totally described what I feel and your point is totally same as my husband.  Maybe I'm too nervous lah.  Yes, you're right that I have confidence on this issue but still worry there'll be any accidents happened, unless getting concrete confirmation.  I do make conflict to myself huh - having confidence but still worry.  I should try to take it easy.

My son will be 2yrs old in mid-Dec.  Is your son studying in MeiFoo Think K2?

maria_lai,
其實你不用太擔心，interview 只是見見小朋友和交帶校服等，據我所知現在11月只有4-5人報上午班，下午班的人數不足10人，如按每班15人來計，仲有好多位! 最好係上午，如果唔係我會比兒子在明年2月去九龍塘樂基插班，但都係只有下午班!!或者去九龍維多利亞!

如果你仲擔心的話，可以報多幾間!!

jujury,

Thx!!

The lady in Think also said they just want to 見見小朋友 so there should be no problem for my son to get in.  I think I'm really nervous.  I'll wait for the interview and take it easy.

九龍塘樂基 and 九龍維多利亞 are good.  My colleague has applied 九龍維多利亞 for her daughter as well.  However, my husband doesn't want our son to go so far.  Do you know the school fee of 九龍維多利亞?  I can't find info at its website.

jujuy

我都唔知九龍維多利亞的學費，我估是3000-3500左右。你住邊區，我住荔景去THINK校車都要600元!!所以去九龍塘樂基 and 九龍維多利工都係要坐school bus!!

今天收到美孚地利亞的電話，叫我星期六去interview,  其實報美孚地利亞都係因為近，都唔知這間學校好唔好??

jujuy,

My son is being taken care by my mother on weekdays.  My mother is living ChoYiu which is near to your home.

Wow, why it's so expensive from LaiKing to MeiFoo?  One day when I was in Think, I heard a lady checked the school bus fare from 泓景臺/昇悅居 and it costs $200-300. My mother should be able to bring my son to school daily but we haven't discussed the details.

I've seen BK moms talked on the Delia kinder and it seems ok.  佳寶 and 宣美 are also good but I don't know if they have bilingual class as Think.

jujuy

maria_lai:
佳寶 and 宣美應該和think不一樣
只聽人講過Delia有好多不同國藉的小朋友，但課程深淺，多不多功課都係唔知，問來問去都唔識人讀過?

jujuy

maria_lai:
昨日去think interview 見了校長，佢話上午班一定有位，因為現有兩組，11月再加一組，妳不用擔心，我問佢而家有多少人報了名，佢話都有5-6人!但校長話一定要足2yrs先可以返學!
interview 真的只是見下家長及小朋友，小朋友識行就ok，就算未戒片及未識講野都可以返學!!因我個仔都未戒片!!

星期六去了Delia interview 發現這school 都幾好，感覺上仲好過think，老師幾好人，好友善! think的中國藉老師都好，但外籍老師就麻麻地，因我偷睇佢地上課，有小朋友投訴、跌倒外籍老師都唔行埋去理，只係企係度講!可能只是我多心或是個別情況吧!

maria_lai

jujuy,

Thx for your info.  I don't worry too much now.  My son can only talk in BB language and also 未戒片.

Is that mean your son can study in Think from Dec2004 ('coz your son will be 2yrs old in Nov)?  ie. Think has accepted your application and your son will join the morning class?

Has Delia accepted your son's application?  How about 九龍塘樂基 and 九龍維多利亞?  Will you go any of them if they have morning class as well?  Which kindergarten will you choose?

I'll stay in Think if they accept my son's application.  My son is now joining its playgroup and so far I'm satisfied with the kindergarten and teachers/staff.
