Dear all,
1) I just back from overseas trip and will call you on the uniform matter shortly. My son is tall and thin by the way. For delivery of uniform, I plan to be done in mid-July after term end. But then I can give you once and for all.
2) Savoy,
You are right, my son will go to the State (East Coast ) for grade 10.
As you may be aware of, continually, there are students from HKUGA college left school for i) overseas studying and ii) changing to international schools in HK.
Reasons being that i) they dropped IB and ii) some however have long been planning to go aboard anyhow in the first place. My son belong to (ii).
Thanks to HKUGA's coaching, my son was able to be admitted to a more than decent high school in the USA. Not only him, there are students in the past few years were admitted to good schools in the UK and Australia.
I got no complaint about the academic standard of the school, especially Humanities and English. Science subjects are a bit weak though. Teachers like Sidney Wong and Harniess are worth praising. Having said that, family support to help kids catch up and overachieve are required. Never to have your hands off them.
Things I am not much satisfied with the school is perhaps their support for students to apply for overseas studying. During my son's application process, I spent much time to communicate, liaise and chase with the school to get the recommendation letters and transcripts. It may be partly because of the tedious application process of US high school and partly that few HKUGA students go the the US. (Majority go to the UK and Australia).
I therefore are more than happy to share with U the application process in future if so required. In fact, given more and more HKUGA students are in foreign countries, I am thinking of asking the college to form an overseas student alumni. My son are of course willing to be the US contact. |
