其實以前我in 過SC後都發覺部份老師欠缺愛心，相反其他學校雖然無咁出名，但老師有愛心e.g.有宗教幼稚園 ...

其實st cat做得好叻，佢用面試定生死，等家長們覺得好難入便成功升level, 反則york校長好蠢，採用高分收信 ...

我覺得York用呢套方法收生，行政工作肯定比其他幼稚園多。

We chose Anfield.  Ironically its popularity is below SC and York, haaa!  Its very close to home.  I also like the English environment and "learning through play" style.  We might still attend interview at SC in March.  The reason why we drop York is the location coz we do not want our boy to travel to school at such young age.

咁講無故中傷好多學校。

我其實幾認同st cat做唔到公平公正, 試想很多家長的小朋友面試也照水準, 答晒題目, 但也不收, 真不知以甚麼標準收生

我自己都有York的offer，去了面試對York的印象都好好（雖然最後有自己理想的學校收了所以放棄York）
不過 ...

my kid studied there for 1.5 years before she went to K1. I like Anfield more than TT, TT is too commercial, all teachers I met had 'no heart'.

Thanks for your information!  I'm glad to know that coz I do not get lots of feedbacks about Anfield, especially the Whampoa campus.

my kid studied in Kln Tong campus ga. I recently met a boy who studied in K2 anfield Whampoa campus, his grandma told me whampoa campus not good (environment and teachers).  If you want to know more, I can ask her next time when I meet her (the boy is in the same english school as my baby boy).

老實講，我個仔考k1年代（大約4，5年前)個個考york都好似會收甘，到最後無其offer他先會選York,但喱2年好似升呢咗，不過有得揀一定sc。

I see.  Sure, let me know at your convenience.  Thanks in advance!

其實今時今日都無七需要再比較SC 及 York 了。

好久好久前，York 以英文叻出左名，之後SC 開左，係九龍塘，K1 NET 全程 stay 係課室，K2 & K3 都有NET, 當時無咩 local kinder provide 到咁長的NET  time, 於是成了名校，主要都係英文叻而出名。

不過現在兩間學校都有英普/國際班，NET time 一様多，York 的中文又幾好，在 pure 學術層面無咩分別了。

個人意見, 只有學費須比較，這方面SC 平好多。但另一方面，我好欣嘗York 及 Stafford 肯收細B, 所以就算細 B 都可以自小接受好好的語言訓練，佢地又鼓勵細B 去到K2 先 repeat, 因為K2 repeat 係 efficient 過 K1 repeat, 其實有學生 repeat 學校就有機會因此而少收一個學生一年的學費，但佢地都十分support.

再講多少少，無咩都最強的學校的，每間學校都有自己強的一面，自己睇吓學校好的地方係吾係就係自己期望的要求就夠了。

York and SC school fee abt the same now. SC $4200 x 11 mths (last year only $3xxx x 10 mths), York also around $4200-4400.  SC book fee $1800 for half a year, similar as York. York charges around $380 per mth for snack fee but SC kids have to bring their own snack so no snack fee to be paid to school, this is the only difference.

York and SC are good schools, but apparently SC's brand name is better.  None of my aunties who live in HK Island knows York and Stafford ga, but all of them know SC as SC is a well-known kinder.

嘩, 原來 SC 加左咁多學費啦!  咁對我來說就 SC 和 York 就無咩分別了。

至於名氣這一點，可能我係老街坊，自己細細個時沒有 SC, 但 York 當時係九龍塘就好出名，我這群反為一定聽過York。

York only 25 years history but SC established for 42 years.

原來 SC 42 年，咁我今次完全  overlook 左 SC, 謝謝你糾正！
