聖保祿幼稚園家長會

jazzmama

問大人: 你對小朋友有咩寄望 ? 平時邊個照顧小朋友 ?
小朋友 : 對佢玩遊戲咋 !

大家同一間房, 但背著坐, 所以聽唔到問咩 !

st. paul interview係大概一月底!小朋友最主要要肯講o野,我囡囡就係好鍾意同人講o野同埋鍾意答問題,所以interview對於佢o黎講係一個開心o既經歷!
當時只有我帶囡囡去interview,老公趕唔切,所以囡囡答老師問題時,我都同時答緊另一位老師問o既問題,同埋我同囡囡中間係被隔開o既,所以我八唔到老師問佢咩問題!sorry...
睇下有無其他家長答到你啦!

Pinky,

I think we are the same that we like SPK more than Kentville cos of the primary and secondary section.  So even it is more troublesome and difficult, me and my hubby never think of back-off and consider others.  Hope the decision is correct.

Fanny,

It is difficult to say whether it is difficult or not.  My girl was born Aug 2002 and got admitted even though she is not big girl.  I think it all depends on how the parents answer the question and also whether your kid show some keeness to talk and play with the teacher.

My girl hug the teacher and say good morning to the 2 teachers (without my instrution) in the interview room.  She even hold the hand of the interviewing teacher by herself and thus she got admitted.

However, when she interviewed another famous Kinder, she just show black face and refused to answer any question and thus failed.

I will say when it is difficult, it depends on luck and also the mood of your kid on that day.

That is my experience after interviewing for more than 5 kinders with my girl.

To all mamies,

I think my girl started to feel / proud of herself as "St. Paulian" these days despite she has not yet start studying there.  (starting K1 this Sep)

She used to attend PN in a kinder near by our home and the classmates are mostly neighours.  In fact, she loves that kinder and the teachers there very much.  However, since last week, when the kinder start the school day and some of the old classmates started to attend school, I try to take her to kinder to say hello to the teachers and the kids.

Her answer to me is "I study in St. Paul's and no more in xxx Kinder."  And, she refused to enter that Kinder and even told the old classmates (mostly her playmates) she has a new school and it is St. paul.

I hope she really enjoy her school life in St. Paul's

需知 spk 係好好 , 一條龍
日後升小, 中學唔洗煩.

恕我多言, 對於3 歲小朋友來說
每日大清早便長途跋涉上學
家長有無考慮她的感受
或許你自己揸車"長途" 可以解決.
但時間相信真的太早了.

其實, 你可以試問下可否改下午班.
相信不失 spk 學位, 小朋友亦有多點時間作息.
至於午睡小休, 相信小朋友於車上差不多一小時之車程,
自己已解決了.

不妨考慮下, 唔好令小朋友於幼稚園階段已怕上學
影響甚遠

若有逆耳之言, 請不要見怪

jazzmama

同意 bkqueen 講法
我女女都係下午班
反正學咩都係一樣
讓小朋友早上多點休息,
下午更好吸收

abc-abc, 試下同 Sister Kwan 傾傾
或寫信問下先囉
有咪轉, 無咪算  he..he….

To all mamies,

Thanks a lot for your advise.  Our current idea about travelling is to have a private driver to send my girl to school and pick her up directly (all accompany by myself / my maid).  It takes around 45 mins one way (Is it acceptable?).  That means she may need to wake up around 7:00 am in the morning.  However, having a private driver give us a big financial burden and thus we need to reduce spending on other aspects.

BTW, I treasure a lot all of your opinion and share with me your experience.  I will again discuss with my hubby the idea re shifting to PM class.

ChingChingFather,
I am sorry to give you the feeling that both me and my girl are so proud of to be St. Paulian.  First of all, I don't think my girl really understand what is St. Paulian given her young age.  I think she does not want to enter the ex-kinder is because she thinks she is no longer belongs to that school.  As for myself, to be frank, if SPK has no direct primary and secondary section, I don't think I will choose SPK (given the long travelling distance).
As I said, my girl got failed in another famous kinder and that is my dream kinder for my girl which is also in Kowloon Tong.

Pinky,
Yes, I think we met with each other in a trial lesson arranged by BoBo in Tsuen Wan for Kindermusilk.  I did not join any of the Aug02 birthday parties but I love to look at the photos of your parties and enjoyed the smiling faces of the kids.  May be next time I will join the gathering as I think a no. of girl of Aug02 was admitted in SPK.

昨日, 我同個女去買了返學鞋, 佢十分之開心... 我最終..沒有去dr. kong 買, 因為dr. kong 對鞋太圓同好重... 我去咗學校附近間鋪買.. 都ok 啦.. 而且又平, 130元

abcabc

我同你就相反, 我好想個女入上午班, 不過學校就編了佢下午班, 我依架已經開始有d 煩, 唔知點安排, 因為我遲d 要生啦... 到時.. 都唔知點安排, 如果我女返上午, 就好好多, 我可以返工前送佢返學, 工人只係出去接佢回來, but 依架, 佢返下午, 工人就要抱住bb, 出入2次, 一次送佢返, 一次去接...我都想試下同學校傾, 唔知可唔可以k2比佢返上午... 咁就易d 安排...

erikalo,

Seems every mami has different concerns on her girl's new school yr.  Same as you, if AM, I can accompany her to school in the morning and then my maid take her in PM.  However, if PM, my maid need to take care both trip and thus she need to stay in Causeway Bay for at least 3 hrs.

For me, both AM and PM have different concerns. .

想問下一次銀行過數是否 9/尾

Wing(婷婷媽咪)

jazzmama,
應該9月頭唔收學費, 要10月1號再過數架啦

erikalo,
係唔係搵唔到保姆車呀? 我以前見過有d保姆車係去新界架喎, 不過我估應該要去到九龍過車架同埋好貴, 如果你第時生左工人可能應付唔到架喎, 我諗你要諗下啦, 轉上午班我相信好難同埋對個小朋友都未必好, 因為佢地已經有班同學仔到時要佢再適應又有難度, 其實我都都係住九龍東既, 我平時都係工人帶佢返學, 我囡囡成日都叫我生多一個, 但係呢個又係困擾我既一個問題, 因為生多一個, 即係工人唔可以幫我湊返學, 即係又要煩, 不過我計劃左如果真係多一個就唯有下年搬返過香港, 所以而家都考慮緊生唔生多一個

Wing,

In fact, I also think of moving back to HK Island once my girl got admitted to SPK.  But, the rental in HK Island is really high.  I remebered I looked around for a flat, the rental was around 19K for 1000 sq.ft. during May.  At that time, our current rental contract has not yet expired (end on end July) and thus we could not move.

However, during July, when we looked for similar flat, the rental was around 23K and the landlord is relunctant to re-paint the wall despite the wall-paper were largely damaged.  And, the property agent said that there is not much offer in the market and we should not ask for too much.   :evil:

Thus, our final decision is to stay in Yuen Long for the moment until the property market settled a bit, or wait until there is more offer, rather than having no choice but force to accept the ridicious request by the landlord and the property agent.
