因為多數係半唐番，所以未必有咁多人識，我知入邊敎學非常不錯，而且有YMCA 團體支持，係不錯既學校！

我個人都覺得OK, 因為B仔依家返緊佢地既PLAYGROUP, 但就係要諗定之後仲讀返佢地既幼稚園好定係去搵其他, 因為佢依家唔使INTERVIEW既, 有無位就睇你有無係佢度上PRE-KINDERGARDEN或APPLICATION递得早就有位, 所以想俾個仔繼續讀, 唔想見到佢要IN依家IN果間咁辛苦, 到頭嚟可能一間都唔收咁就愁囉....

哦, 多謝曬你既COMMENT, 因為我個仔都讀緊佢地既PLAYGROUP, 所以唔擔心會無位, 因為我地有PRIORITY可以揀先, 依家只係考慮好唔好俾佢一路讀埋幼稚園囉.....不過, 我諗我地都好大可能俾佢讀返, 因為唔想佢讀得咁大壓力.....

我想知咁讀上去係咪都係要讀國際學校？同埋學費係幾多？貴嗎？

Yes, this is an international kindergarten adopting UK National Curriculum, Mandarin (Chinese) is taught as a second language. It's up to international school standard but not the local ones.

You may check the school fees here: http://www.edb.gov.hk/FileManager/EN/Content_514/216178.pdf
$48,200 per annum for kindergarten.

Of course it depends on your own choice, but most children will go to international schools after K2, some of them will stay for K3 too because they didn't receive offers from their desired schools, so they stay at YMCA for another year to wait for vacancies.

If you're aiming local primary schools but would like to send your child to YMCA, then s/he may need to take extra Chinese classes after school as the Chinese lessons and standards only fulfils international schools requirements. As long as your child could manage Chinese well, it shouldn't be a big transition problem from YMCA to local P1.

But please bear in mind that 99.99% international kindergartens are activity/play based and children are more relaxed in class compared with local kindergarten, therefore your child may found some difficulties in adjusting him/herself from a play based environment to a traditional classroom in local P1.

My son also joined the toddlers world playgroup previously and so we have chance to meet numerous YMCA kindergarten children.  They all have very good manner, very polite and can express their idea.  However, I guess the school does not focus on the academic area as some K3 children cannot spell some simple words such as one, two three, ducks etc.  One good news is that they are going to open a YMCA primary school next year.  Heard that the location is at Shum Shui Po and kindergarten students have priority.

我是家中講普通話的爸爸，我兒子在YMCA從Play Group一路讀到K3，沒上過補習班，去年報考英普/全英直資和私校，有一個offer（深水埗崇真）和三個waiting（沙田培僑、王錦輝和元朗宏信），我們非常滿意。小朋友開心返學，英語（一路教phonics）和體藝（全天班每天下午都有一門不同的體育課）都發展得很好，喜歡讀英文書，非常有創意。缺點是中文比較弱，認字很少，但我們相信他到小學可以很快追上。總之，YMCA是一間可以讓小朋友健康、快樂成長的國際學校，但可能不太適合對中文要求很高的家長。

親友有對twins讀緊，校長係k2建議考宣道轉grade 1，細囝interview表現唔好，校長幫手打電話去叫佢收埋。兒子係YMCA 可以愉快學習但對會升主流小學家長並不適合。

你好，想問一下多數是香港人還是其他國籍？謝謝

K1到K3，從名字猜測，香港人、内地人、西方人、南亞人、日本人、韓國人都有。K3的學生少，聼我兒子講日本同學比較多。
