How does your child like her life in GH?

Pianokc

I would like to ask students of GH:

1) I know there are lots of homework, but is it handleable by a average student?

2) Do all students need tutor to survive in the school?

3) If English is only used for English and General Studies, how do the students achieve high standards of speaking in English? (I have met a few GH students in the past, and their English hardly have any accents. It's VERY good English.) Just wondering how does the school achieve this?

4) If GH is going full day schedule for P1, do you think my child will still have time for afterschool lesons such as ballet, piano, art  and other hobbies?

Thanks for sharing in advance.

Pianokc,
1.其實功課唔係好多，只係假期先至話會有多d啫！平時個半至2個鐘就搞掂,咁當然都要睇吓小朋友專唔專心同係咪慢吞吞啦！
2.我覺得一、二年級都可以唔洗住！
3.除了英文同G.S仲有英數,英文讀深一年,同埋平時响學校會有english speaking day ！基本來講大多數學生英文都OK！而且依家d小朋友大多都有工人姐姐,姐姐平日都以英文同佢哋溝通啦！
4.可以安排响星期6,唔洗返學嘛！或者係星期5放學後嘛！就算平時,一日半日都無問題吖！

Thank you, but my daughter's language is English, her Cantonese is really quite a struggle.
I heard there is much pressure, and homework from past students and parents.

I don't like the school's non-disclosure about the info upcoming for Sept too.

I am sending my daughter to IS.
I think it suits our needs better.

No doubt GH is  a VERY good school, for certain suitable students.
