didma:
小兒將會在九月入讀DBSPD，請問你現在G1是用那一本英文書和練習薄呢？看到你的經驗和分享，真令我很擔心！

some of accepted in DBSPD is not smart and my friend tell me some of "MAKE HORSE",so I decided to give up DBSPD,and I choose LS.   :D  

恭喜,恭喜, 有多一個學位讓出俾心儀DBSPD家長.

真係好唔明, 千辛萬苦考入, 而家話小朋友唔smart    又話朋友講佢知有"做馬"而放棄    想問D小朋友

didima,

Long time to "talk"!  Glad to hear that your son gains confidence again in his English subject!  I totally agree with you that reading is useful in improving one's language.

It's the same case as in my son.  He (is now in G.5) failed in GE paper in last examination but still got a marginal pass in overall (as they combine other parts eg. dictation, oral, listening, etc.).  From the first year my son got into this school, I know that the English standard is far above his level.  As long as he can get a pass and gets promoted to upper form, I let him 'go' with his own pace!

Frankly, most of the boys master excellent English but usually they do not perform similarly well in Chinese.  Having said that, every boy has his own strength and fortunately, I do not feel any pressure from teachers/school to urge my son for better results.

In fact, the boys learn more than what they are taught in lessons.  I appreciate the most on the Project Learning exercise which is definitely a great help in my son's case.

I have a little advice for those whose boys are going to enter DBSPD, stay calm and relaxed, watch and let your boys perform freely especially in G.1.  As long as he gets a pass mark, let him enjoy as much as possible the school life which will become part of their memory!

"我係e生,我囝囝係資優,學校d課程點配合?"  一位家長在一次答問大會問學校.

太淺好多家長又唔高興, 比幾千元學費,課程點可以同津校一樣噃???

I fully agree to your views.

Hi,sababy:我囝囝的同學仔係班內都唔係特別叻,但佢住廣播道可能有錢DBSPD都收

I don't know why nowadays so many parents say DBS is a perfect school.  I know some of the DBS boys are just so so or even poor in their academic performance.  They can stay in the school just because they are good at sports.  Since both La Salle and DBS do have outstanding and poor students, I'll surely choose the one that is free of charge and the money saved can be used for the child's future education or other extracurricular activities.  I can say that parents' role is more important in the development and performance of a child.   As the fame of both schools are more or less the same,  I'll certainly choose La Salle.

如果喇沙都係直資, 大家又會點選擇呢? 好似喇沙的優勢只是無需交學費?

呢樣真呀，有一名門之後讀犬兒間小學，
位名太太見佢亞仔對鞋舊舊地，
便叫亞仔不如買過一對喇！
點知個仔話唔使喇，好多同學對鞋仲舊啦，
對鞋無問題，可以再著咁話。
係呢位名太太自己講的，佢仲好開心，
因為個仔好識諗，錢佢真係大把，
佢個仔咁識諗，唔多唔少都係有D 平民同學罷。

我無Sour Grape 吖，DBSPD 都係好學校，
我亞仔學校適合我亞仔，都一樣係好學校。

Get real, not all ordinary families can afford to study in DBSPD.
有D 家庭每個月係拎唔出幾千銀比學費的，我有無講錯？

Please note that DBSPD is not a school for the "Elite" class only. It has a lot of students from ordinary families.

入去頭嗰年點都要比學費，
全級頭3名好似有獎學金，
全級第一好似全免，
第二同三好似partially 免。
我有好多朋友D 仔轉左去DBSPD，
我亞仔學校呢兩年都游左好多個過去了，
基本上佢地4 年級以上都係他校精英，
要知DBSPD 呢間新校有幾多功夫，
我而家唔會講，等多10年啦，
睇吓到時佢地會考成績係點先講喇。
