上星期六一家人著到去飲咁,  10 點幾一早就飛車去 stanley 間 st. stephen 小學 interview, 亞女in 11:15am 我地 11:00am 就去到, 上到去係禮堂出面有幾個 miss 幫你 tick名證明你到左, 跟住派一張介紹學校既 vcd, 一家入左去禮堂見到一張張枱, 每個 小朋友派一張圖畫紙油顏色, 爸爸媽媽就坐係後面等可以一路睇大電視, 小朋友要自己坐係度油顏色爸爸媽媽唔可以陪, 佢地油顏色果陣有 d 鬼佬, 鬼婆, 本地 miss 全部同 佢地用英文交談, 問下你鍾意咩顏色 張圖畫公仔係咩, 呢 part 應該唔計分只係等 interview 期間比 d 野你做下.

跟住輪到你 interview 老師會一齊帶6個小朋友行過操場過去一個課室門口每一坐係一張椅到, 老師又係同佢地玩下d 小遊戲當 warm up 呢 part 都應該唔計分 跟住到戲肉等課室入面 interview 完小朋友出黎就到佢地入去, 我女講番我知, 6個小朋友一齊睇住個電腦, 電腦會講一個故事, 聽完之後老師會開始問問題, 我女話老師叫邊個答就要答, 答完哂每個小朋友仲要接見一個老師, 問 d 簡單問題, e.g. 今日邊個帶你黎 ? 你今日個頭 "cool" 好靚個公仔叫咩名 ? 星期六/日做 d 咩 ?, 成個過程大約 10 mins in 完出番黎, 我唸唔係咁難我女話好好玩 :

我自己中學都係呢間學校讀, 小學我都未入過間校唔錯幾大成2萬呎地方有游泳池, 足球場, 空氣都幾好, 師資方面 interview 果日見到好多鬼佬老師又睇左介紹學校既 vcd, 覺得應該師資方面都唔錯, 係唯一要考慮學費方面, HK$5,200/月 + 午飯 + 校車 + 課外活動 + 其他雜費 = 保守估計要 HK$8,000/月 如果小六寄宿仲要 +HK$2,000/月

Dear powerpuff-mother,
Thank you for sharing your experience.  I attended the interview last Satureday. I found the teachers and school workers very nice.  I like this school because they use English and Putonghua as the teaching medium.  The only problem is the school is quite far away from my home.  My son was car sick last Saturday.  It seems to me that the competition is not so keen as that of HKUGA.  This year the school has received 400-odd applications.  That means one out of 4-5 kids will be admitted.  Hope my son will be accepted and hope I will have a chance to meet you.  My son told me he was looking forward to the boarding life, but he said he did not like the teachers because they all spoke English!

Does the school also interview the parents too?  What do they ask if they interview the parents?

Dear powerpuff_mother,

You must have confidence in this school, or you will not arrange your son for the interview.  My boy told me he performed well during the interview (hope he told me the truth, because sometimes he was over-confident.)  He said he was the one who answered most of the questions about the story.  He also told the teacher he liked reading very much and his favourite character was "托托" (a tortoise).  I only brought him to two school interviews.  Hope he will be accepted this time (he is on waiting list of the other school).

Regards,

Sunny0426

Dear Jackie,

The school did not interview the parents.

Dear Powerpuff_mother,
Thank you for sharing your experience with us. Also want to know if all the parents are rich people.  I was told that some parents were so rich that they gave a pleasure vessel to their child as a birthday present.

Dear powerpuff_mother,

我有一些問題想請教你,有勞之處,先行致謝.

據我了解,聖士提反很注重音樂和體育,小兒"四肢不靈",又沒有音樂天份,儘管我很早已安排他學游泳和其他運動,又安排他學鋼琴.這樣的小孩子在這所學校念書會不會很有挫敗感?因為他不屬於運動型,反倒是思考型,比較喜歡靜態的活動,好像下棋,看書等.我怕學校不適合他.

Dear Powerpuff_mother,

Dear Powerpuff mother,

My son is as same as Sunny 0426's.  He likes thinking and studying when he finds something interesting.  Would you tell my if this school is suitable for him?  A lot of thanks.

sunny0426

學校說最早會於11月中發信通知家長.

hrsccky

Thanks for your opinion.  Hope we may make a good decision for him.
