my girl is in the K1 Pm class this year. Both me and my husband like the school. Since it is not a big school, parents involvement are very important here. We (parents) konw every other kids and the teachers can even remember the parents names. If you want, you can always join the class and I have once sit in the class for all three hours and I also read books for other kids. I would say this is a good school but if you are targeting for locol education, NIS might not be your choice.

Great to hear that...I am wondering if we parents should talk with each other in English in school ( & after class)... i think we should do that because NIS is an international school, on the other hand it seems a bit odd to speak in English with each other ( suppose no teachers were here)  if both parents' 1st  language are Cantonese...

HI cecilia.wilson,
My girl will have K3 interview in mid Jan next year, as current parent, would you please share some more about NIS?
I think it's a very loving, caring, homey school, right?
How is it's primary school's academic standard? I don't expect very high standard, but hopefully average standard?
How is it's secondary section proceed?
Thanks

It's amazing that your kids can go into the interview room themselves without yours accompany. Could you share with me how can you train your kids to be independant and feel at ease with the interviewer?

Thanks a lot!
