校長都冇嘢問我哋, 只係問我哋有冇嘢想問
見完校長, 辦妥手續後, 校長話我哋可以隨便玩一陣, 咁我個仔就急不及待咁走咗出去玩 (佢好乖咁等咗好耐)
出到去, 有啲小朋友玩緊車, 我個仔想爬入啲車仔度時, 有啲哥哥仔就教佢要由另一邊開門上車, 又教佢要用腳"young"架車先會郁
但我個仔都唔係好識玩, 跟住周圍行, 佢哋就用車追佢, 又想撞吓佢咁, 我知佢哋冇惡意, 只係想一齊玩
跟住有個英文老師就同佢哋講唔可以咁, 跟住個老師又同個中文老師講多次, 個中文老師又教佢哋唔可以咁, 跟住佢哋就慢駛跟住我個仔, 又話我知佢哋叫咩名, 我又同佢哋傾咗陣偈
本來on the way去學校時我個仔開始眼瞓, 我都好驚佢去到學校會扭計, 但去到時, 佢好快就warm up咗, 心情仲好好, 見人就打招呼, 我先舒一口氣
整體感覺好好, 最重要係, 我睇到我個仔鍾意呢間學校

agnesthfok

I bought two sets..... and I have some additional ones passed over from my relative..... so got quite a lot........

since my kid will be attending other school next year, do you want mine? they are in excellent condition........

you can choose to wear the T-shirt and shorts alone (summer time) or you can wear your own clothes with the apron on top......... so I didn't buy any winter uniform, just wear our own clothes and put the apron on top..... to save $$

agnesthfok

Karie, good question........ our concern is still $$$..... especially when I've just given birth to our second son........ so $$$ is critical......... my elder son will attend St. Cat pm class........ if we can manage financially I would really want him to continue in YC..... but let's see......

For sure, you can just buy the apron.... this way you can use it for the entire year....... don't buy lar..... I'll pass you mine........

Not smart lar.... we're just lucky......... but really worry that he won't be able to adopt since the learning environment is quite different from that in YC......... if he cannot adopt, we might need to send him back to YC.....

Please leave me your contact via PM so I can contact you when the school year finish around July........

Hi,  nice to meet yew chung mom here. my bb going to attend nursery classs in coming dec.

I hv a question about the uniform, no one mentioned about bb need to wear uniform, can u share some information on this? thanks

agnesthfok

Do you mean your bb is going to attend the ITLP program or the 2-year-old program? If ITLP (for babies) I don't think you need to wear uniform, but for 2-year-old program (pre-nursary) then you need to wear uniform.

Hi Agnesthfok,

I've applied for 2010 Two-Year-Olds Program for my bb too.  Of course letting my bb to have a happy first year school life is what I concern.  However, paying such high school fee for studying in int'l school, I can't help expecting my bb can learn and develop interest in English in return.  I've attended YC's seminar and understand the Prinicipal's theory.  Since my family used to speak Cantonese to bb, should I better don't put any expectation in bb's English learning progress... if I really choose YC?  How about your child's situation?

You might think YC being an international school, everyone would speak in English, but the principle is quite opposed to speaking English with you child unless your mother tongue is English. She think ...

I just paid the school fee for pn class few days ago(monday), but they haven't mentioned about this. thanks

Yes, only 2-year-old programme student required to buy uniform. Don't worry, they will send notice to you and let you choose the size and item.

agnesthfok

we speak to our son in English and Cantonese... but my son's English happens to be much better than his Cantonese........ from school he is exposed to both Cantonese and English with both languages having equal weighting......... so your child will have exposure to both languages.......... there will be 1.5 hours of Cantonese led by a Cantonese teacher and then another 1.5 hour in English led by a NET........ my son did not pay attention at all when it comes to the Cantonese session, but as the school year progresses, he showed more interest in the Cantonese session too.........YC is unlike other int'l school where English is the dominant language...... in YC both Cantonese and English are just as important..... at least that's true in the 2-year-old program.

I asked my son's paediatrician to sign not the one from school.

I live near Lai King and we take the school bus from YC, the school starts at 8:45am and the school bus comes at 8:05am to collect my son. It really depends on you, if you ask someone to take your child to school, then where does that person go during school time? seems like a waste of time.

Dear all YC mama,

My son is going to attend am class starting this Oct.
Think @ Mei Foo accepted my son pm class as well. My husband like YC. But my concern is YC is a bit far away from home as I live in Mei Foo. I am in a dilemma now.
