SPCC收咗我個女, 我家住牛頭角.基督教.
有同事叫我放棄這學校, 因太多有錢人, 阿女會自卑.我會考慮這點, 也會考慮遠近問題.
但又覺得社會上就是有不同階層的人.只要好好教育女兒, 讓她坦然面對,背景其實是家長的憂慮 ...

Dear Charlottechan,

SPCC also accepted my daughter. Same as u, we live in Kowloon, 基督教, from St. Cat, not rich family, not related to SPCC.
But I think it's really not a problem to  study with 不同階層的人 at the same school as long as we teach our kids to have the correct value.

A few days ago, I don't know how to choose if DGS also accepts my daughter. But now I have decided to choose SPCC after discussion with my daughter's class teacher (who is very experience). SPCC should be a more suitable school for her based on her characteristic.

Hope my daughter & all other accepted kids will enjoy the school life at SPCC.

幾大都讀左先啦，最多唔適合咪轉校囉！

Congratulations to you all whose children are accepted by SPCC.  We are also living in Kowloon side. Not related, and no religion.  How do you think about the commuting time from Kowloon (of course depending on where it is in Kowloon) to the school (school starts at 8am)? Or you will move over to HK Island instead?

Do you know where to find some information on nanny buses for Kowloon?

Thanks a lot!

除左家庭背景的因素外，我又想八卦一問︰

小朋友如果IQ高但EQ低又是否合讀SPCC呢﹖比方說好重視成敗得失，別人對他/她的評價...

We live in Ho Man Tin.  I asked the nanny bus about the travelling arrangement yesterday. Boarding time:

South Horizon - ~7:30 a.m.
Central, Admiralty MTR - ~7:10 a.m. (~$800)
Ho Man Tin - ~6:50 - 7:00 a.m. (~$1600)

I have made some observation on the other school bus from my place:

Good Hope - aboard at 6:45 a.m. (schools starts at 7:30a.m.)
MCS - aboard at 7:20 a.m. (school starts at 8:00a.m.)
Sacret Heart Kinder - aboard at 7:15 a.m.

In view of the above, I think the time the nanny bus to my place is quite acceptable.

係中學有清窮學生唔出奇, 不過係小學出現就.........
中學可以攞份次第排名就知個考生成績如何, 或者睇下d公開比賽獎項等黎收生, 叫做有往積睇, 但考小學....無得睇成績, 就算公開比賽獎項都會係初級既, 認受性唔會太大, 學校點揀d有潛質既學生呢? 所以我相信小學收得既唔會係窮人囉. 記得中學既講座有提過全校約3成學生係有用學費減免, 小學有冇講過有幾多成?
唔咁講小學收生全部係"有錢人", 不過應該唔會有窮人!
只少係我個仔(讀緊中學部)7而家d同學中, 舊生升上去既冇一個窮過我地!

囡囡在SPCC(中學)唸初中，幾年前中學註冊及考分班試時也遇見一些住在牛頭角的家長，她們的囡囡給我的感覺是既獨立又有自信，而大家家長們圍在一起傾談時，也非常融洽。囡囡的同學有住馬鞍山、天水圍、東涌，當然也有住山頂的 ...

i know that someone who lives in a $60 million apartment was rejected also.  For those accepted, don't forgive as your kids really performed their best in the interview.  Be proud of them and give them support!

Good luck to all!

上面有人講:

"同學有住馬鞍山、天水圍、東涌"  --> 點解要show 住址證明 ?  有冇住公屋家長收呀 ?

"舊生升上去既冇一個窮過我地!" --> 你又點知呀?

"幾大都讀左先啦，最多唔適合咪轉校囉！" --> 絕對同意

如果你有1千万捐俾學校, 我估無論interview 成, 間間學校收你仔女!

總之, 問心無愧, 盡力讀書咪得羅.

如果我無記錯, St. Paul Co-ed係唯一提供學費減免的直資或私立學校. 據聞家庭收入$70,000以下的都有機會, 當然要通過其入息, 支出及資產審查.

有需要的家庭不妨提出申請. 不用介意, 正如哈佛是全美最貴的私校, 但哈佛保証, 不會有學生因承擔不了其商高昂學費而不能入讀.

中國人有句老話, "千金難買少時貧", 貧困的家庭, 只要有正確的價值觀, 比別人努力, 將來會更有出息!

SPCC's remission system is the best for middle class families among all DDS.  They calculate your disposable income, instead of total income of the family.  They will deduct the cost of the housing expenses, either in the form of mortage payment or rental payment, and that is the difficulity which most middle class familites are facing.

其實SPCC學費減免很寬鬆，自住樓宇不計入資產內，收入計算可以扣除樓宇供款部份，如果收入每月五六萬以上，扣除一二萬供樓，相信大部份人都可以獲得學費減免！
但礙於面子問題，很多人都怕別人知道，但請放心，除非小朋友自己說出去，學校在保障個人私隱方面做得很好，減免手續不經班主任處理，由校務處獨立辦理，學校這方面做得很好！    另 中學的手冊內不用 填父母親職業 和地址  (小學的就不知道了) !私隱度高！     
他們自主收生有那麼多年經驗，收了你的子女代表你的子女是有一定潛質！我仔在中一就讀，原校小學升上的英文一般都很好！      我仔是外校生，經過三個月的訓練 ，英文寫作方面突飛猛進 ，寫出來的文章相信去考中學會考都合格有余了！當然考5*才是他們的目標！

"舊生升上去既冇一個窮過我地!" --> 你又點知呀?

唔好意思, 我係講緊個仔相熟既同學或已知既同學(約十幾個), 並唔係全部學生.

不過點都好, spcc中學(小學唔清楚, 我地都係外來生)係間好好既學校, 入到既當然要亨受下學生生活.....

Dear bblovesmama,

One of the reasons is because of her 男仔頭性格, she always gets alone better with boys than girls. She always plays happily (and even crazily) with the male, no matter in class, church, park or different activities. I suddenly thought it will be very cruel for her to have no more male classmate for the next 12 YERAS. No group work, no stupid sharing, no interaction among boys & girls for 12 years are very strange indeed. The real world is not like that.
If I want to give the best (including learning environment, all round & well balance) education, Co-ed seems better. When I think of better 心理發展, other factors like location, rich/poor …. seems not important anymore.

Dear  212512,

May I know how did you prepare your kid for SPCC and DGJS interviews? Thanks.

若小朋友EQ低就更需學校的教導及扶助建立完整而正確的價值觀。

藉着基督教的背景，這方面 SPCCPS 做非常出色！

在校內，小朋友學會了信任、分享、關愛、互相扶持、自我激勵.....，體現「信、望、愛」精神。

Dear share123,

我其實沒有特別 prepare a lot for the interview.
返而是為她的 personality 去預備, 因為 she was quite shy before kindergarten. As I need to go to work, so I arranged one extra-activity per day (all nearby & carried by grandma every day). Hope that she can have more exposure, have fun and the don't be so shy. Luckily, 她不覺得辛苦, 返而覺得好好玩. 我當然亦有為她參加幾個朗誦比賽, 但全部都贏唔到。 On the other hand, I only focus on her homework at night because other people said the result of kindergarten is very important. We found that she becomes more mature with more exposure and the school helps a lot in training her up.
所以應該將功勞都給婆婆及幼稚園老師, what I did is only on time planning for my daughter ecery day. She was accepted by SPCC & got second-in DGS really really surprise all of us.
But now, I am dreaming to focus on her 品德教育 & correct value and at night, I wish she can handle the homework by herself lah... because I found her self-control is rather low.

小兒今年spcc三年級, 唔見得有同學歧視問題, 同學間亦唔會有比較家底既情況, 就算係家長, 亦只係有部份係有$$人士, 都幾大部份係中產, 或家境普通(本人就係其中一份子)

就算係有$$人, 佢地都好低調, 唔會周圍"曬", 好多都好有教養, 所以唔洗擔心

別放棄
對孩子不公平
既然都去考了
怎麼樣都試一年先

其實學生根本唔知邊個有錢或冇錢
老師都未必會知
(會比較既係阿媽問題..但我相信就算有錢阿媽都唔會咁教小朋友啦)

同事叫你放棄
我想多少有點酸葡萄心理
