My daughter attended the interview last Saturday and got the email today telling us she was offered  ...

Is the interview only conduct in English? What test and questions the techer asked? Can you share your experience as I just sent application form by today

中文科會程度低些嗎?如果不呈分，是否不能派津中,一定要讀直資學校?

I live in NT. We are waiting for the results from NIS, ICS, RC and Anfield.
The results will be released very soon. Hope good news comes.

A NET teacher did the interview with my daughter. I believe that the interview was conducted in English only. They did not interview parents. We just stayed in a classroom and waited for my daughter. My daughter told me she played Lego, draw a picture and listened to a story in the classroom. It seems that the teacher observed them while they were playing, and maybe asked them some questions during playing.

Hope the info helps!

We're waiting for RC too, as it's location is very good for us.   But I doubt I will accept the offer now even if my son is offered a place.

My friend's daughter is offered a place too at CS and her English is definitely not fluent, tho she is not shy and is very willing to speak English.  I suspect they look more at the child's character.

Yes, my girl is applying Y1 in 2014-2015. She was born in April 09.

There were four kids in the group. My girl can speak fluent English coz both my husband and I talk to her in English only.

You live in NT too? RC provides through train education and the competition is keen. May I know why you may reject the offer if there is one for you?

Thanks

I asked the principle the same question and she said it's quite unlikely children who choose to attend this school will go back to local/aided schools.  Most will either go international or DSS schools

我想問東涌YMCA係咪行IB?

hi, anyone know if this school start at age 5 for g1, and it is equivalent to reception year in international school/k3 in local school.  then what happens when the kids graduate from their school?  go directly to 7th grade in other schools if not getting in their high school in tung Chung.  I don't quite understand why their curriculum is a year short compare to other schools....does anyone know or have confirmed with the school before regarding this?  

though my kid is not yet age appropriate for primary school but I am kind of concerned about her education in hong kong especially we plan to send her to America when she starts high school

我支持愉快及多元體驗學習，但學校真係好似無乜功課，好似大部分都會於課堂內完全，一星期只需帶一本書回家看，會唔會太過輕鬆同真係少左d呢？

The campus seems a bit old.....
will it be any improvement work on that area??
