過對面的太古廣場地下(即电車路), 在連卡佛門口的巴士站乘23 或40 ，next stop 是香港公園的壁球室站，過此站後按鐘，在斜路頂落車，向左轉行1分鐘便到。

Hi,

Are you all with the same schedule 1045 on that day? Which district is yr son's ps located?

Is that this sc likes to ask maths in Eng and very critical questions to the applicants? Is principal Leung going to conduct the interview or the vice-principle & the Brother ?

金鐘有12A巴士(近地鐵B出口, 近力寶中心), 去到堅尼地道, SJC對面有巴士站, 一落車望向對面馬路就係SJC, 有交通燈可以過馬路.

-Candidates are selected for interview this year.
- Maths' questions are of P.6 standard, in Englsih only. One question is akin to Mathematics Olympiad and explaination is required.
- The candidate will have interview with Principal/Vice-principal/Brother at last part.

Kanam,

Thanks for yr infos. How do you know they are selected and how many are selected out of approx. 486 applicants this year ?

in other words, this sc is very emphasis on Maths, right ? My son is weak in O Maths. Do you know any comprehension reading or self-introduction would be held during the interview ?
Do they have any Q& A in PTH other than Eng ? I wish they would ask more
non-academic questions instead.

I read from the admission procedure in the school web page knowing that candidates are selected for interview but I have no idea about the details.  You may ask the school office if invitation letters have been despatched.
For the English part of the interview, candidates require to read a passage and answer questions.
Self introduction is included in the last part, talk with Brother/principal.
PTH is optional in the interview.  Candidates may answer the questions in either PTH or Cantonese in the Chinese part.
Don't be upset for your son's capability on Maths.  Each part of the interview is essential.  Just strive to his best

Thank you very much holokmom & LittleKidult, I know how to get there now.

Heart, our schedule is 10:00.  My son's Maths is not very good, doesn't matter anyway, just give it a try. hehe...

Clumsymom,

Yes, hope our kids can compact all the challenges
in coming months. Frankly, it is too much for just a 11, 12 age in this   .

clumsymommy

Yeah, good luck to all!
