港大同學會小學 - 10 & 11 Oct - 1st interview

ebnchina

My son attended today's interview and I think he enjoyed it very much.  How's your kids?

My boy told me that there were story & questions, painting picture, drawing card, playing bowling, 1-to-1 with teacher, reading Chinese & English books and maths (division).  

May I ask if your kids told you the same?

Thanks!

我的女兒是L302, 她說有些小朋友玩玩具, 有些小朋友玩遊戲(跟老師一起), 而她選了玩玩具(LEGO)及畫畫, 並沒有跟老師講故事及看書. 只是問了以下兩條問題: 1)9-1=?  2)他說把兩個BALL放在一個盒裏, 如果現在有八個BALL, 請問需要幾多個盒呢? 而我的小朋友只懂答第一條問題而第二條她答錯了. 我覺得第二條問題對於一個K3學生好像深了一點不知大家認同嗎? 定還是我的小朋友比較差呢? 我追不上時代呢?

Agree.....division for K3 students is a bit too difficult....

Re what your daughter told you, I think it's quite true as my friend's daughter also told her the same but her version also had story & questions section as well.

My daughter attended Sunday’s interview too.  The first thing about the interview she told me is “I don’t remember”!  I was quite disappointed as her answer might imply that she was not doing well in the interview.  But I also thought that she, a little girl who was only four-year-old, was a bit difficult to perform what I/the school expected her to perform.  I hugged and kissed her for showing my understanding and support.  It’s okay little girl.  You have tried your very best anyway.

She was happy.  I think she enjoyed the interview though she could not “report” to me in an organized way.  She told me more bit by bit later on the day though I believe there are still a lot missing.  Story and questions, making a card with her name on it for someone she love, then candidates could play the toys there after finishing making the card.  I think the last part is to see whether they can accomplish a task well before going to play.

I don’t know how well or how bad she did until Oct 19.

My son's version:

story telling - one chinese book & one english book

maths - the only question is 7-3=4.

drawing - he told me that he drew daddy only.  i asked him how about me and he said ... forgot

painting - maybe kids were required to finish one picture.  he said that many kids went for the tigger and it was very crowded there.  so he chose another character.

watch TV then leave.

when i asked him that he preferred dbs or HKUGA, he chose the later one and the reason was 'better environment'.  sounds like impossible as dbs's campus is bigger and have more facilities.

after discussion with my husband and we noticed finally coz HKUGA is a co-ed and he met many girls here. (he told me before that his preferece is co-ed school.)

Do yo know who is the talker in the hall ?
He is humble and the content in the short briefing is better and touching.

The tall man is one of the vice principals.  I agreed his talk made me feel touched as well.

cutekiddy

what did he say?

ming88

In conclusion, he mainly said you, as parents, have to find a suitable school for your child.

That tall man didn't introduce himself (or he introduced himself before the parents' arrival?) There were about 15 parents there when I entered the hall. Correct me if I am wrong.

Regarding the content of what he said, it was nothing special that he kept emphasizing the school appreciated what the student did than what they achieved, the school encouraged the students to develop.....parents should pay attention to what the school did than what the school target to do....and those were the important factors for parents to choose the "right" schools for their kids.

By the way, the music show was good but the drama just focuses on those four main characters only. I expect the movie can tell us more....

果個係何主任, 自己都係爸爸, 所以講野會sensational 一d

Actually, not exactly is 'division', the teacher just asked my kid if there are three dogs in a houre, then 6 dogs will need how many houses.

In fact, my kid did not mention about listening to music.

我相信小朋友好enjoy個interview, 因為我個大少in o左幾間so far 都唔會主動講interview發生乜事....唔係話"唔記得"就係"唔想講"

昨天竟主動報料,又話聽老師講故事答問題,又去畫Pooh同Eeyore,跟住又去跟音樂拍子"跳舞"......不過佢就無講老師要佢計數

當日小一簡介會,主講生命教育的那位老師和何主任最打動我,最有共鳴

我知有聽音 ...

是啊,不過負責生命教育那位大聲了些,何主任最touch,比負責講對外交流的那位女副校長觸動我更多

就算另外一位教程的副校也很好,可能都是爸爸

My son didn't say much as usual after the interview.
For the story telling, is the teacher read the story or ask the kids to reach the book?

My son told me that the teachers ask him to read a book in which he don't know.  I wonder if it is true.

我個女說老師用中文講故事後, 然後問小朋友問題, 最快舉手的小朋友答問題

My son recalled that there was a Q&A session for  the whole group of applicants. Then there was also some sort of role play, he mentioned he chose a toy gun and "shoot" the other applicants. It apperas he was asked to be in the naughty corner twice!! So the chance is  ........Anyway I am sure he did enjoy the interview and love the school

What my kid said was:
1.  老師用中文講故事後, 然後問小朋友問題, 最快舉手的小朋友答問題
2.  he was being asked to read out one Chinese story book and one English story book.
