突然間好想舒發下考小一的感受...

2ndsister

小兒今年9月會讀小一, 好記得去年呢個時候, 已經開始留意下D學校, 但因為冇經驗, 就算有D明知理念唔夾, 當時都報左先, 最終我幫佢報左共約20間小學, 我係九龍人, 我諗除左大西北果D冇報之外, 其他都應該冇漏....

最終有1/3冇去考(撞時間), 1/3到最後冇offer/waiting list, 1/3收左(註: 我已經放晒出嚟, 現只註冊了一間, 同埋自收到心儀果間offer後, 我其他就算有2nd in, 我都冇去, 因為真係好累...)....我好清楚等待既痛苦..同埋而家諗起都覺得自己有D顛左...

你地既經驗係點架?

Christi

請問：
如果，命運能選擇～再來一次，
你報小學的方式仍會一樣嗎？

ICbaby

20間.....你太誇張喇.......會引起恐慌

巴不得爸爸

恭喜你為小朋友找到一間心儀的學校,就算辛苦都算值得.

但選左一間心儀小學, 為何會重讀, 是今年轉校重讀?

momama

not more than 10, the family cannot handle

momama

My feeling is, this process is not for the kid only but for the family.  Especially when you start P1, can your family manage in the transportation?  Spending too much time on school bus will exhaust the kid, then no energy to do homework, and then you are angry when you are back home at night ... ... The kids cannot take ECA because no one will pick him up and they are upset about that ... ...No time for the younger brother or sister ... ...

Don't just think about the 教學理念 of the school (any way they may mislead you too).  Get more information about the practical side which will affect the daily operation of your whole family so much.

報既時候真係要衡量下所有因素, 報20間, 真係好誇張!

wilsonchanwh

20間就真係幾多，不過我都報左12間，早期的面試主要吸收實戰經驗，結果音小，優才，WKF 全部衰哂。不過小朋友慢慢掌握面試技巧，最終取得 5 個 offer (DBSPD, SFA, 宣小，CKY & St. Joseph)。(已放其餘4間, 及無去YW third in)

中point , 覺得無問題先係問題, 正正就係好多家長之問題所在.......當局者迷

newmommy

reply to momama, and also want to ask other parents, actually,
how long of the transportation is considered "long"?
for primary school, when is the acceptable time to "arrive home"?
and when do usually the kids go to bed?

多謝分享, 恭喜咁多位媽咪既小朋友入到心儀學校

今年到我小朋友去玩哩個遊戲, 其實好似音小都唔係我target 既小學, 不過我報左佢地 briefing 先...但係咪好似wilsonchanwh 話 早期的面試主要吸收實戰經驗, 而慢慢掌握面試技巧, 因我沒幫我仔報面試班, 所以都擔心臨場表現

我兒子考了8間，由於工作關係能常接觸到不同中小學的小朋友，所以有些學校已經肯定不會選擇(並非那些學校不好，只是不是我們杯茶)，面試由6月開始一直到12月，幸好沒有趕場/撞期的情況

momama

my girl wakes up at 6:15, gets on school bus at 6:45am, arrives home by nanny bus at 3:15pm, goes to sleep at 9-9:30pm.

if she comes home by school bus, she arrives at 4pm!  the nanny bus is too full to drive her school in the morning, so I pay on both sides, in order to save 45mins a day.

回復 yee79 的帖子

這個要看你小朋友的性格﹐ 小兒性格慢熱﹐所以要多練習。我認識一些小朋友開頭面試表現不錯﹐ 但面試太多反而影響小朋友情緒。

newmommy

thanks momama. May I ask what time does school start / end? I want to have a feeling about how much "time" should be spent on the schoolbus / nannybus to be reasonable.
Ths!

momama

Our school starts at 7:50 and ends at 2:45.

If you ask me, reasonable time is 30min.  People say it worths to travel to 天腳底 if the school is good.  Don't think about that!

My neighbour gets on school bus at 6:15 and be back at 4:30 (no ECA).  How much time have you left?  To me, a kid should sleep for 9-10hrs at night to be fully energized.  Roughly one hour to have relaxing dinner.  So at the end, you have to move home.

Remember if it is a must to join ECA after school, you have no time at all.

"People say it worths to travel to 天腳底 if the school is good.  Don't think about that!"

Agree!!   If the kids are really smart to get in a very good school, parents should consider moving the home.  Too long travelling time is really not good for the kids.  And if moving is not possible (due to financial reason etc), then better choose the "2nd ideal" school that is not so far away.

我亞女讀 n1 時已開始留意小學, 到 k1 暑假前就已鎖定了三間, 最後就只考了呢三間, 鎖定目標後至報名前, 我都會差不多每個星期去學校網頁睇吓, 上 EK 的學校專區收吓風, 已確保學校同我當初的感覺係一致.  當中兩間都知機會唔高, 諗住一賻架啫, 最後真的一間唔收, 一間 waiting.  最後一間即係而家註冊了的一間, 一開始都知機會好高, 雖則係咁, 原來去面試時我都仲係會緊張, 好怕有意外發生.  幸好, 最後都一如所料係收的.
