2006年9月TSL小一家長請進

elbs

Hi all,

Your positive responses to various parents' questions surely impress me.  Thanks.

My child will join TSL this Sept.  My family is considering moving closer to the school.  Ma On Shan, Tai Wai and Diamond Hill are under consideration.  Do you have any idea about the boarding time for the school bus for the 3 different places.  How about the cost of school bus ?  (Just a rough idea will do !)

Many  thanks.

principal

elbs,

For anything about school bus, please call the school bus hotline at 26255584.

You may go to TSL's web site below to have a look first.

http://210.0.207.198/index.htm

Click "School Information" on the left of the home page and then choose "School Buses".
Then click "Bus Route (Bus 1- Bus 31) in the middle of the screen for details of each route.

Then, you can see that Ma On Shan, Tai Wai and Diamond Hill are all covered.

For the boarding time and school bus fee, please call the school bus hotline for more information.

Dear Principal,

Oh sorry I've missed your message. Really thanks you for your detail information. My girl likes Japanese but my friends said that French is better. That's why I'm still thinking over.

Dear Principal,
       Thank you very much!

2000626,

No matter which one you will choose finally, the ideal case should be the one your daughter likes as it will be her who will study that third language.

If I am not mistaken, you have to inform this final decision to the school about 2 weeks after you get the first batch of the notices from the school.

Dear all,

Noted that "plain red school bag" is required by TSL. But I hv brought a new school bag which in pink color, in very good quality (light weight) for my daughter before getting acceptance (P.1) by TSL. Can anyone answer me the following questions :

1. Is TSL hv their personalized school bag ?
2. If not, is it only "plain red" style accepted by school ?
3. A red school bag w/small pattern can be accepted by school ?

Besides, any idea of school uniform supplier since they don't mention on notice ?

principal

晴雨公仔,

School bag :-

Yes, "plain red school bag" is the official requirements.  The main colour should be red, be it light red or dark red.  I think a red school bag with small pattern might still be acceptable as long as there will be at least 80-90% red colour.
According to my personal observation, it seems that I have not seen any real pink school bag used by pupils at TSL.
I guess you may not want your daughter to be
"so outstanding" from the crowd when all the pupils line up in the morning and everyone spots this pink school bag out of the >1,000 red school bags!!!

The school does emphasize on discipline.

  

School uniform suppliers :-

For last year, I can recall at least 2 suppliers below.

a) 陈炳记 (Mongkok or Tuen Mun)

b) 宝琳 (TsimShaTsui)

Not sure whether it will be the same for this year or not?

It seems that there will be a session for all the new P.1 parents to come back to the school in the middle of July.
Just wait for the letter from the school and you can then ask all these details to the school about school bag and school uniform on that day.

Supplement :

School uniform - total 4 suppliers.
Their names / addresses will be provided in a long circular which you will soon receive.

elbs

principal,

Thank you very much for your detail information.

Dear Principal,

Thank you your reply. Since I brought very expensive school bag (seven) but in pink color, I'm doubt whether go back to exchange it in red color with pattern at both left/right side OR just sell it online. I think I shall take a photo of school bag in red one and then get approval from school during Orientation Seminar.

Regarding school uniform supplier, do u mean that they will mention on coming notice? If not, could u pls give me tel no. of supplier also.

B.Rgds.

晴雨公仔,

In that case, perhaps you can bring back this pink school bag to the orientation session for all the P.1 new parents around the middle of July to ask the school whether it will be accepted or not?

In case not, then you can either exchange it with the shop for a red one or sell it online.

Details of all the school uniform suppliers will be mentioned in the circular/notice that you  will receive from the school very soon.

Dear all,

Has anyone read the April '07 "Creative Writing" newly posted on the school web site?

Looks like more and more pupils like to spend a lot of efforts in drawing very nice pictures to attract teachers/audience's attention so there will be a higher chance for their work to be posted.

It is good that they can cultivate the sense of creativity by doing so.

However, they may then need a much larger paper to write/draw from now on as the larger picture allows less available space for them to write the words!!!     

Sooner or later, it may need to be renamed as "Creative Drawing"!!!
 


Have a good weekend.

Principal,

  for your hard work - in digging this out.

Re :  Textbooks

We bought duplicates of a few textbooks,
and I asked Wai Fat what should be done.
Their answer :
Take the books back to Kln City Wai Fat,
together with the TSL booklist which they gave you with the textbooks (with the $$ total marked on it),
Wai Fat will issue a voucher which can be used to pay off $$ on textbook purchases, eg for the outstanding textbooks which are not yet available.

Bluestar,

It is not so hard work.
Can pull this chatroom out in just a few seconds.  

But curious to know why duplicates?

Anyhow, the voucher will not be wasted if you still need to buy those
books that are not yet available.

Principal,

The duplicates = Black Cat books.
I bought the entire set of Simpl Chinese version BC already, total approx 2x books.

Bluestar,

Do you find the content, layout or the page number of the Simplified Chinese version BC series 
exactly the same as those we can buy in HK?

I heard there could be wrong spelling of some words in certain cases.

Identical.
Font size of both versions are same, equally small.
Same exercises.
Only diff is in Chin characters on the cover, and I think the foreword.  So these diff are not of any significance.
You get the same CDs.
At 1/3 the px, so vvv attractive.
Didn't notice any wrong spelling.
And they don't use BC for spelling anyway, just a reader.

We used 2 books (from simpl. Chin set) in P2 already.
The year before, there were 2 readers per term, i.e. 4 per school year.  Last yr there were only 2 readers for entire school yr.

We may consider that as well.

Dear all,

The long-awaited 06/07 secondary school places allocation has just been released on the school web site.
Please have a look.
It looks rather similar to that of last year.

Any P.6 parents know  roughly how many cases of successful "knock-door" this year so far?
