Share St Cat K1 Interview Experience at Last Year

FortuneBB

Recently I received some PM from BK mammies who asked me to share the St Cat K1 interview experience. I am willing to share it openly. Hope everybody can find a suitable kindergarten for your beloved kids.

There were two parts of K1 interview.

The first part was group interview.

The kids were play lego in the classroom. Around 5-6 kids in one group and sat at one retangular table, parents sat behinded the kids.
During the lego time, one teacher would hold a picture and sing a birthday song (but i did not know what they want the kids to do and response).

The second part was individual interview.

The teacher brought us to another room for individual interview.
There were 4-5 tables, each table had one teacher, the teacher asked my daughter few questions from their teaching aids.

(1) spot different from three pictures, and name the different one.

(2) Teacher took four things out (toothbrush, biscuit, comb and handkerchief).
The teacher asked her which tool was for brushing teeth, and requested her to name it right.
Which one can eat, and name it also.

(3) The teacher shown her a picture (A4 landscape size), there were many objects in the picture and it was very colourful.
The teacher asked her to find out the objects (totally 3, which were very small) and also requested her to name it clearly.

(4) The teacher took out a toy pot and cup. The teacher demonstrated how to pour out the water into the cup first.
Then asked my daughter to do again and served to the teacher.

(5)
Asked my daughter to point out the same card from another three cards.

Lastly, the teacher asked me one question only (I heard most of mammies were asked two) why I choose St Cat for my daughter?

The kids have to find out two identical parts out of the other 3 cards. I can tell you it's not easy for the kid to catch out and understand within few seconds, plus the cards are small...

Thanks FortuneBB

The birthday song part is quite dumb I think  hahaha


The rest is actually quite difficult.

Thanks a lot for your sharing!!  The interview itself appears to be quite difficult for a 3 year old.....

小冬姑,
其實真係有難度，我囡面試時只有兩歲四個月，真的好靠運氣及當日小朋友狀態。

May I ask if your daughter can answer all the questions? Just wonder if it is a must to answer the questions to get the offer

Thanks so much!! Your information is definitely useful!!

BTW, how long is the interview?  Can it finish in an hour?   Thanks again!

Hi amkchoi and bearwhat,
My daughter could answer 90% questions correct.   During the interview.  The teacher said she did excellent with very fast response.  

But I would like to share that she was failure at the 1st part interview.  She cried crazily and loudly at the Lego time.  Everybody looked at her (she yelled uncontrollable).  She could not adopt individual interview immediately after the group interview.  The teacher allowed me to suspend the interview, but only 10 mins.  

So, please don't give-up during the interview although your kids are cry or showing uncooperative.  Conversely，this is your show time to let the teacher know how you  react to your kids when they are at the emotional moment.

ADD OIL!!
