Is York Kindergarten good for working mum?

kylieyau

Anyone can share their experience with York Kindergarten. It seems to me that they organise quite lots of interest classes and extra circurrulum, so parents do not need to send their children elsewhere to learn.  One stop service.  Is it true? Are those classes good, up to standard?

Are their graduates good at Chinese as well?

Thanks for your sharing in advance.

My neighbourhood's son is studying at York at am class.  He takes the school bus in the morning and come back at 5:00pm.  I only know he take interest classes and extra circurrulum such as tennis.  I think it is good for working mum because you don't need to search around.

The interest classes are mainly on sat am and there are no school bus on sat.which h means parents have to take their children to the school.But it feel more safe and reliable since the eca are arranged by school.

Tennis is included as normal activity class which is included in school fee already.

those who didnt join the ECA in weekdays afternoon but only join Cambridge Eng Course will go to Sat session so they have to go by themself.

york got multiple intelligence class for children in which they have classes cover cambridge exam, pth 唐詩， tennis, drawing, 體操， it costs $3900 per month. in addition to thus class , ordinary class cost $4200 for international class. but this multiple intelligence class only starts in k2 and k3. teachers will choose children and ask parents if they want to join at the end of k1. my son joined last year. i think it's good so i didn't find him any other class in weekend . his cambridge exam  result was very good.

那麼multiple intelligence class是周六上或是平日, 返開下午班, 是否早些回校=返全日呀. Shuna, 您仔仔否k2已考cambridge exam. 學校D中文水平好不好. 我是新手媽媽, 今年入讀York n1.

just a sharing from my friend that his son is with York and now coming year will not study there anymore as he said York is too commercial and he ends up paying near $10K per month for his son just to study at York.

想問$10000是否包括每個月學費、書簿費、茶點費、校車費，再加上校方挑選小朋友參加其他下午多元智能班如tennis, Cambridge, violin，游水? 是否費用包括學幾個興趣班？
如果是的話，費用也和出面的learning centre 差不多，每個$1000都$4000！working mum 不用擔心工人接送安全！

多元智能班是否被挑選就必須參加？可否如小學課后興趣班，自己參加與否在于家長？

My boy is at K2 of St. Lorriane Kindergarden, Yuen Long AM international class, which is the same group of York.   He attends the ECA in the afternoon.  You just have to pay the fee and the school will arrange all for you, including the lunch and snake.   Total expenses per month is around $10000.    As my husband and I are working and in shift duties, with a younger girl, age 2 at home, I think that is good to us since the expenses for outside activities/classes is nearly the same.  A stable environment for kids to learn and grown up is better and you wil no need to worry much when school helps you to organise everything.

To supplement, they also teach Putonghua.  So to me, the kid's lanuage in chinese is also okay.

How is the quality of the ECA?

I am wondering if it's just like the full day kindergarten, with a long resting or sleeping time in the afternoon.

How are those kids study in PM class?  Do they attend the ECA in the morning during weekdays?

Hi [email protected],
Do you think St. Lorraine has a high standard of academic results?  Also, are there a lot of foreign pupils studying in  this school?  How is the NET teacher ratio to local one?

I am considering this school and will attend the coming Parent's seminar this Sat.  Thanks for your help!

I know york is very strong at academic. But if the kids feel very stressful?
