Feb18 九龍塘小學開放日

You must use KTS's school bag.  It's quite heavy.  Perhaps this year (P2) the teachers always require my little girl to bring along with supplementary exercises & workbooks, I can have more exercises in addition to going to gym.

Lunch box quality: I guess average.  Sometimes, my little girl says it's not ok.  But I've not tried myself.  Perhaps the PTA can arrange a random test so as to ease parents' concern.

Exam. week: hope she can go to p.3 with reasonable results.

Hi,

請問小朋友是否有一個私人書桌櫃(有匙)可以放一些不用帶回家做的習作或書本?

Gapper

Yes, but you've to remind your kids (esp. p.1) to bring along with the homework and useful textbooks when leaving school.  The school is closed after 1800 each day.

And, you have to clear the drawer for him / her regularly otherwise it may be a private store of the kid.

唔緊要啦，交流下o者......

今個議題意見不同，可能下個議題好 o岩 key，求同存異，大家 KTS 一脈嘛......    :

aii 寫道:
都好舒服嫁，設計不錯，好似ＳＰＩ咁，價錢都好合理！
至於大家所分享的「料」，是真料，是流料，精英班的事還是待有興趣的家長自己查證吧！
我想事實勝於雄辯！大家都有自己所持的理據！

請問kts p1 也有那些課外活動可參加?

Gapper

no special requirement, just ordinary black in colour.

Gapper

Lots of extra cirricular activities, ranging from sports, arts, computer ... to chess, music etc.  You'll get a long list actually.  Sat. ones are optional whilst the ones on each Friday afternoon are compulsory.

Thank you Gapper, do you have son/daughter studying in KTS. I think you are very familiar with this school.  What is your comment abt this school comparing with the government school?

And, What is the activities time last in Mon-Fri if I choose one of the cirricular activity for my son (2-3 times in a  week) since the time for the school bus is last to 4:30pm.

Which kind of the activities need to paid and which are free?

May,

My little girl is now in P.2.  She has just finished the final exam. and hopefully she can be promoted to p.3.  Actually both Brother Ben and Gigi 2 have offered neutral and detailed comments on KTS.  

KTS is quite demanding indeed.  The standard should be much higher than the usual local Government schools.  I have not compared it with traditional famous Government schools like  MCS, La Salle etc.  But if a primary school has linked secondary school, usually the pace of teaching and the syllabus would be easier to follow.  Of course, Government schools are free but KTS is a private non-profit-making school.

I only know that the school bus schedule on Fridays copes with the school's extra curricular activities, cos. my girl does not join activities between Mondays - Thursdays.  Perhaps you can check with the staff (handling school bus service of KTS) and there will be more information to be issued to new parents.  Don't worry.

If the tutors are school teachers, the activities are mostly free (or plus a nominal charge for materials).  If the tutors are outsiders, then a few hundreds (for a school term) may be required.  So, the fees are quite ok.

Hi,kts各位家長,

請問校方有沒有要求學生學習一種學器?或在音樂或運動上兩者選擇一樣接受有系統的體藝訓練,而是必須選修的課外活動?

謝謝!

Hi KTS 家長:

如果家長的英文程度唔係太高,咁在教導小朋友功課時,
會否困難呢？

請各家長俾意見！Thanks！

Gapper

no compulsory course, but lots of different kinds of extra curricular activities at your choice.

The activity on Friday (after school) is compulsory.

Gapper

May be slightly difficult but don't worry, teachers are nice.  They would have supplementary classes for kids who cannot catch up.

For most of the vocab. which you may come across in General Studies, Maths (only an Eng. workbook) and English subject., you can tackle them by using dictionary.  For English grammar, you can make reference to supplementary exercises.  Most of them give good explanations.  After all, language is a matter of exposure, no matter it's Chinese or English.  The more a kid reads, the better.

Gapper,

多謝你的回應,很多kts的家長對學校的老師評價都是很nice,我覺得kts的家長都一樣好nice.

希望你的女兒,不但順利升上小三, 而且能考獲優異的成績.

Hi,Gapper:

Thanks！

Gapper

謝謝你的祝福！雖然有點壓力，又未解決 (未派回考試卷!)，但她已鬆一口氣。

Frankly speaking, last year I did wonder whether I made a right choice and gave up other reputable schools.  She has shown how much she loves KTS.
