當年追求的一條龍，我們最後放棄了！

Ian,

看你所寫，你是不是放棄私立部學位，改參加自行分配同一間學校政府津貼的下午班呀？還是完全選另一間小學？
如果是參加自行分配同一間學校，你無講有幾多分來申請，如抽到連細女都直入，呢個決定無錯o既，不過有一定程度風險囉。其實無違背你當初選一條龍幼稚園的意向丫，只是加入咗些少冒險成份。

我都好理解你大女既擔憂，返開下午班系好舒服既，要佢改為天未光就起身，真系好慘。。。。

Ian,

Hope your daugther can enter to a school which suit her the best.

But just wonder, SH private section allows student to take part in the central allocation. Why you need to decide so early?

Thanks!

Yes you are right about the freedom to participate in lucky draw.  However, we want to be considerate to the other parents and do not want to hold a seat that we do not intend to take.  There are many parents who have asked us why don't we keep it first but there are always others who will need it more than we do.

And this is good education to our children, not to be a selfish person.  'coz I really want them to know their parents can also do that, not just by telling them, but we set the good example to them that we are able to put this into action.

Ian, 想請教上午班&下午班其實係教學理念或者課程上有什麼大不同?
以致您和囡囡會認為下午班會比較適合?
因為我都打算明年自行會選下午班
但朋友們個個聽到都話, '嘩 好深果wor/好多功課wor/無上午班咁好wor' etc e ...

Hi enbutter,

I think I have spent THREE years comparing these two so it is impossible for me to tell you their differences easily.

At the end, whether a school is suitable for your daughter is a subjective thing.  The objective comments sometimes are simply irrelevant as those must be able to apply to your daughter and your family.

One thing for certain, am is more academic advance and have better banding.  I can assure you of that.  At the end, this is the point to have a private primary school.

Good luck to you!

Ian

I guess your daughter wanted to make sure that her sister could get in as well?

Wish you all the best!

BINGO!  

But for a moment I need to seek my daughter's input again as the private section principal confirm the younger siblings from SHCK can also be guaranteed, under her management.  So that is a good thing for those with more than one daughter in SHCK.

純8 卦...請問自行選下午校(或其他學校), 就不能報讀上午校嗎?

It is allowed.

IAN,
當你我都一樣, 本身可以直升真光仲可以HOLD住黎大抽獎, 但我連留位費都無交--既然已經另有主意, 何必霸住個位呢, 早D放出黎, 幫下其他人, 自己心裡亦落實D

相信你女女都係醒目女, 希望早日聽到你既好消息

due to my involvement on certain organization last year, I have delayed my timing to get baptized so it is not a little risk......  I have apologized to my daughter that I owe her this.  But the point is we agreed by serving in that organization, it was meant to benefit more families than just ours.  So, I didn't regret but true the risk should be minimal if it was otherwise.

Glad that my daughter didn't blame me on this.  She has been easy on me.  I guess she understand the allocation system than many parents

Hi Charlotte_mom,

Glad to find our similarity!  In our case, the seats are so limited for the private section so I sincerely would like to leave that to others.  We still like private section more as parents, but you have to learn how to let go.

Is this a good example that we are not helicopter parents?  haha!

Thanks!

是的, 有些時候, 我們珠璣盡算
到最後的結局卻是出人意表.
反而當孩子還是年幼的時候, 我很害怕幫她們做錯決定.
無論如何, 我們做父母的都是經過深恩熟慮, 我想這樣對孩子來說已經很足夠.
加油!
BTW, 你的英文真係好過中文

你女女同我仔一樣今年k.3嗎?我一直以為你女係今年k.2咋
我同你情況一樣當年揀呢間幼稚園就係可以直升私立小學部，但我都決定左唔會交留位費喇，決定左用20分抽官校，如唔好彩抽唔到就玩大抽奬
祝大家好運之餘亦無選擇錯誤

我覺得尊重小朋友的意見是對的, 他才是小學的長遠用家.
只是我懷疑, 他們在此年紀, 是否比我們對不同學校了解得更多, 他們的喜好真得是如此理性 (不知樓主女兒的情況所以只是指一般同齡小朋友而言),  同一間學校的私立及公立部會令她如此的不屑(或響往)亦是表丈特別的問題.   

以我自己的小朋友, 他是見一間愛上一間, 到底誰是至愛, 他自己亦無法一時決定.    我自己覺得, 雖然會給他們機會表達自己的喜惡 (對不同種類的學校), 但在此年紀家長無可否認在選校的漫長過程中, 需做推動者或決策的角色, 介紹不同的學校給他們看多些, 向一些高一些的目標(不一定是名校) 試下. 真得試不到也是盡了力已無悔了.

由衷佩服, 這是一個十分不容易的決定, 佩服你的勇氣, 但更佩服你女兒, 雖然孩子還很小, 但只要她明白每一個決定背後要付出既"代價"又同時肯願意承擔, 她必受眷顧

雖然還有許多個月才會知最後結果, 但你和家人都一定會廣受 BK 媽媽爸爸既祝福，期待你的好消息

Hi doryee,

Yes my elder one was born in the same year as your son!  Didn't expect to find someone to share similar experience so soon.

Thank you for the support and I believe he should stand a pretty good chance!  Good luck!

Thank you for the good wishes!

I admire my daughter's courage to take the responsibility of her own future, and certainly many more during our conversation.

The definite right or wrong only exists in the eyes of an adult, because we thought we know it so well.  But reality is, everyone can only have limited knowledge and we are always affected by the "noises" around us.

On the contrary, the kids are innocent (if the parents keep them that way).  So it is much easier for them, if given the opportunity, to see clearly the way they wanna go.

At the end, it is their own life and we can't help them with every single thing.  So, may as well to let them learn how to "make decision" sooner and be responsible for that.

This is our way of bringing up our kids, that's all.
