Getting your child into DBSPD

DBBoy

Any tips for the winning horse in race 3 of this week's race in Shatin??  

In exams, we should teach our child to try their best and not their luck.  It is not such a good thing for a student to say that I got the best mark in the class because I was "tipped-off".

Anyhow, my tip is:

1.  listen;
2.  learn; and
3.  revise.

It works with all subjects

CSL123,

Besides DBBoy's tips, I would like to let you know what did they do last year for P.3:

1) English - be prepared to have a short unseen dictation (if your boy is seated in the hall, it may have some good seat  or bad seat but soley by luck!)
2) Chinese - unseen dictation also but nothing can be prepared
3) Mathematics - again nothing can be prepared

Please do not push your child to do extra revision or exercise - the written exam result all depends on what he knows (or how much "ink" he has)! Apart from that, 20% or marks are from internal school results and another 20% from extra-curricular activities.

Just let your boy have a good sleep night before and an easy-going mood to attend!

Good luck!

以前賭馬，在報檔會發現有"貼士"賣。後來資訊發達，變了打008。總之，貼士係要錢既。你公開問ｄ以賣貼士為生計既人羅貼士，形同打劫！

此風不可長！

免費送一招俾你：

Mental exercise in Mathematics.

小拔既傳統。好少小學有做。St. Cat 及很多幼園反而見過。欲知詳情，請先捐款到任何註冊慈善機構，或直接俾錢我，過多你兩招！

睇離我都就快死，手快有，手慢冇！

看完DBboy之討論，我反而有興趣想知入拔翠的使費，以我所知的有：

1.未入前的貼士費。(俾Privatecoach 之流)
2.學校收之學費。
3.學校建設費。(聽說以前不維收，現在很多爛爛地)
4.花草樹木費(聽講一盘水仙花500大元)。

DBboy說要預一筆捐錢之預算，到底要多少呢？

5.打官司費, 心理醫生報告費或/及一切專科費 (起因可能是一支鉛筆)

Dear KatieM1203,

Wow, "donation to the school" is actually an item out of your family budget!! May I know how much is it?   

You may just quote a range for our reference here.   

Thanks,
Vanilla

撞鬼，我個 ad 出左兩粒鐘，半個 PM 都收唔到。

各位，我岩岩自己發覺逢星期四都 short short 地！

Hui Tung 你唔好告我呀！精神病患者係唔冼負法律責任嫁！............好似！

yk,

6.上EQ workshop 費 (若然自覺不高的話).  300蚊棵樹同3,000蚊棵樹可以好大分別gar!

wunma,

我不停搗亂，經我用佛洛依德既潛意識分析法 (sorry,一定要有ｄ根據，對手睇好多智能發展既書架)，發覺係因為一個叫 faith 既資優版常客被殺有關，阿 faith 姐熱心助人，曾在一次南亞海嘯討論中教識細佬好多野(其實係有關以色列七日戰爭既來龍去脈)。

佢同我一樣，都係鍾意發嗡風(不過佢ｄ風有料好多)，物傷其類      加上我就離被發配邊疆，多數冇得上網，所以唔怕死，明知有被殺可能都要踢場。

講黎講去都係錢，我堅決唔信泥ｄ就係 DBS 精神！

My son is not in DBSPD.

Our family makes donations to the school mainly because my husband is an old boy. And I trust most if not all DBS grads are like my husand and DBBoy; they love the school very much and keep doing whatever they can to help out a little bit.

We have been making donations to the school for a couple of years already since we moved back to HK.

To quote a range, I would say a couple thousands per year to tens of thousands per year (per family). However, I think old boys' families are donating a little bit more. My husband told me there are families donating range from 500,000 and up.

終於都睇完成個topic, 好多謝各家長嘅獨特見解, 我又學多咗啦!

If my sons were DBS students, I think I am most willing to donate without hesitation even for tens of thousand.

For tips I would not buy them for money! I just hope that some would share last years' P.3 questions. In fact, my son also sat for P.2 exam last year but failed.

【本報訊】拔萃小學涉「逼家長捐錢」事件再有新進展，

我相信可能會係DPS, 因為我係DPSPD家長, 昨日都未收過學校這樣的通告, 雖然中學部和其他學校設施要重建, 但DPSPD從未強迫過家長捐錢.

I am not a DPS parent, but feel quite puzzled as to why the parents lodged their complaint. If they do not want to give the donation, they may choose not to reply, or simply return the slip blank. Some parents even say to the press that they need to borrow the money from friends - $500? Anyway, the money will all go to the school, where their kids will spend 6 whole years.

All CCKG parents and Christ Church goers were also asked to give donation, but don't forget FOR THE IMPROVEMENT OF DPS! We have the pleasure in doing this – helping a brother school! Do we often tell our kids that it is a blessing to be able to offer our help to the needy? What is the fuss?
