Hi all CKY parents,

Can anybody tell me the address of the temporary school campus in SSP? Is the campus in Tin Hau only for the coming P1 students? All P2 -P5 students will go to SSP campus? Are there two Principal in CKY, i.e. Ms Lau and Mr Yeung? Many thanks.

Hi CKY parents,

請問放榜後是否真的會有學額空出給waiting list既人呢?
大概何時會通知呢? 謝謝.

Dear Christyma,

The temp campus in SSP is on Kwong Lee Road for  current Yr 1 and up students study there until the new campus on Caldecott Road is completed in 2009.

Yes there are two principals, Ms Lau and Mr Yeung, but they are not assigned to different campuses.  Meanwhile, they are responsible for different levels of students.  Mr Yeung, an IB-trained educator, focuses on IB curriculum; while Ms Lau is the Head Principal and oversees the development of the entire school.

Dear Yaumother,

For 2008 Yr 1 students, they will study in Tin Hau temp campus for a year, and will move back to Caldecott Road in Sep 2009.

For the school buses arranged by the school, they will stop at SSP first, then go to Tin Hau, and vice versa.  So teachers will tell stories on the buses.

Dear Sammi,

As parents have already paid the non-refundable registration fee, think parents will not inform the school to withdraw.  Meanwhile, I'll suggest you write letters to the school to see if there is any vacancy.  Regards.

Dear all CKY Parents

I have posted a new title before I see this page. Therefore I put my problem here again to seek for help as most of you are CKY parents as well as to be the new ones this year. Here is my problem:

My daughter has been admitted by CKY to join P1 family in this year. But I'm quite frustrated to face the traffic problem as the long travelling time seems too hard for her. Any new P1 parents living in NT especially in Shatin can share with me.

Dear all moms,
My son will go to CKY in coming Sept, could somebody can introduce a school bus company for me as I may consider to send my son from Kowloon city to Tin Hau directly.

Many many thanks!

Dear Kyliema,

Thanks for your reply!
Would you kindly tell me if I take the school bus, will the teacher take care the students and tell the stories? Is it all the school bus must go to SSP and then Tin Hau? Does it mean that all the primary one student will study at Tin Hau school capmus? Do you any comment about comparing 陳守仁and CKY. Thanks!

Where is the school campus of CKY secondary school? Do you know the school fee of secondary schoo?
Thanks again!

最近P3同P4學生take 了一個International Assessment (Australian exam), 考核English同Math水平，以我所見的成績表，我P3孩子班的學生成績十分勁，遠遠超過香港其他學校學生的平均水平，我孩子和一些我認識的小朋友的assessment, 都是在香港學生top 10%之內，更有個別學生是top 1%，真是頂尖子！

雖然是高興，不過，成績太好，反而令我喜出望外，接受不了事實，CKY學生真是咁犀利？有沒有其他P3和P4的家長可以分享一下？究竟有甚麼學校參加了這個Assessment？CKY班 "馬騮" 究竟同邊間學校比賽？

Dear kyliema,

Thanks for your advice.  That means the school can only inform the students in the waiting list AFTER September?

I cannot see CKY on the name list of IB recongized program. Would you kindly tell me the reaon?

Many, Many Thanks!

Dear 貓公子：

英文與數學都一樣咁勁？有高年級家長透露，好像數學成績不及英文好，所以老師（安慰地）說數學題目頗深。

Dear Yaumother,

學校於每周上課時間表內設有樂器課，基本上鼓勵所有學生都學習樂器。而星期六的興趣班是自行參與的。

其它雜費：
－書薄費(約$3K/年)
－教學材料費(約$3K/年)
－樂器費（約$3-6K/年)
－樂器（多數樂器都要購買）
－校車
－餐費（$16-17/餐)
－Field Trip($200/年)

小學與中學都是同一地址，祇因現在校舍重建，故將07及08年的小一新生安排在天后上課啫。

蔡繼有仍未在屬IB學校因為：
－學校計劃為Yr11-Yr12報考IB，現時最高年級亦祇是Yr6
－因為IB學校需每年向IBO付費，而且費用不菲，為節省費用，學校會按時為未來Yr11班加入IBO。

註：減省費用即減慢加學費的速度。

Kunggi, here's a thread re your enquiry.  It says participants included upper primary students from some PLK schools and private schools (KTS and SFA).  Hope this is of use.

Dear Che,

I'm a Y1 parent and would not claim to be very knowledgeable about CKY.  I gather that its curriculum is not US-based.  It's following IBD for its Y11-12 students (mind you that they currently have students up to Y6 only), which hopefully leads to a variety of choices for further studies.

Therefore, if you're using admission rates for top US universities as a benchmark, some of HK's more established international schools are more your cup of tea.

One of the reasons we chose - and are still staying with - CKY is its emphasis (and, hopefully, delivery) on bi-literate, tri-lingual education.  More important, it provides a pressure-free, yet inspiring environment that would help to instill in students a yearning for learning.

As to the school/student output, I suggest you take a look at "In the Yau Garden", a compilation of the theses, in both English and Chinese, prepared by their Y5 students.

By the way, some Y3 students are enjoying the Harry Potter series.  Sure I would not say it's an average standard for students there.  But the less capable ones are still enjoying school (unlike some others who might have already been 'labeled' as 'incompetent' in some local schools).

If you are really concerned about "outcome", sorry that CKY won't have it until 6 or even 10 years later.

I can't speak for other parents, but I'm becoming more at ease - and confident - sending my kid studying at CKY.
