Yes,you are right. I should expect much as Anfield is a real international kindergarten. Thanks

I think they are already better than ESF since they teach traditional chinese.

反而我有d擔心Anfield既英文程度,因為我地係屋企都係同仔仔講廣東話,唔知單靠係Anfield上堂,小朋友既英文程度有幾好?

Really? I though they teach simplified Chinese.

回覆:little-pig-pig 的帖子

my son graduated from Anfield almost ten years ago. He studied there for prep program then K.1 & 2. His English and Chinese are both good. He passed all the interviews of primary schools including ICS, Phoenix. (closed now), Renaissance, GSIS and CDNIS. We spoke to him in both English and Chinese and I hired a Mandarin teacher come come to my home to play and talk with him for one hour per week.

好奇問句:你想入IS多d;定去York/St. Catherine多d?冇人可保證入小學機會有幾大;即使當年問Anfield校長/Staff,佢只會話你知年年不少學生去左邊間邊間(亦係事實);但人地入到唔代表你一定得;加上想讀IS人多左好多;乜IS讀好多人爭;ESF收生遊戲規則又改左;以前d人點點點行今日已經唔work;好似當年Anfield行入去就有位;當年Anfield一剛開冇乜人吼...
如果我叫你半晝返Anfield半晝返本地幼稚園一定被人圍插;插至體無完膚;但讀IS中文差入LS小學係事實;冇IS小學收返去LS亦係現實(guarantee有位),中文唔掂係讚LS小學更痛苦。

Anfield is a good school with good English environment.
Do the kids of our senior Govt officials go to IS more or LS more?? Haha the answer will surely ring a bell to you :)
BTW, how can you be so sure that you can get in the primary LS of your choice in 2-3 yrs time? The competitteion for IS is keen and it will onl;y get worse!
Hahaha if you believe in what our Head of Education Mr Ng said -- the English standard of Hong Kong students is improving ans is among the highest in Asia, then go to LS la hahaha.

我想入lS多D,但正如你所講,競爭激烈,萬一真係入唔到lS,只怕入LS會辛苦

I agree with most of the comments here.  You have to know what you want first.  Anfield is an international kindergarten, whereas York and SC are local kindergartens, hence approaches are very different.  It's like comparing apple to orange.  We had few offers including York last year but we had no hesitations in choosing Anfield.  We know we want IS route for our boy.  And language development is most important at this stage in my opinion.  Other academic acquisitions can come later.  Language cannot be taught, one have to immerse in the environment.  Anfield provides a good genuine English environment and ideal teacher and students ratio.  Hence it is a perfect choice for us.  Honestly I do not have great expectations of Mandarin from this school, hence we are amused when my boy started coming home singing Mandarin songs and speaking bits and pieces of Mandarin after only 2 months of school.  That's good enough for us, maybe not for LS.  So it's a choice.  Take it this way.  When you gain more on one, you lose the same from the others.  It is the same amount of time from school everyday, ie. when the school allocates more time on Mandarin, it means less time for English.  Unless it is completely an English environment back at home, I think sufficient English exposure in school in order to establish a good English foundation is more important.

I am worried about the safety of my kids if they commute with the helper

well, if you have no choice, you have to trust your helper with that. I will let my helper take my son to school and pick him up after.

Confirm your offer and send in your request for change of session at the same time (or asap).  It should not be difficult to change from AM to PM session but they will not entertain you before you confirm your offer.  Last year I did the same (but mine was PM to AM) and it was successful.

I call the school this morning ask about change from AM to PM, she told me to send an e-mail to the principal first.

minirat  Yes, that's what I did.  Get in the queue first, but like I said, they will only consider you after you confirm the offer.  it's not difficult to change session especially from AM to PM.  發表於 13-11-11 16:00
