Island Christian Academy ("ICA")

另外, 我行入ESF班房, 感覺成班人散收收, 入到ICA係好FAMILY LIKE, 雖然未必成班人一齊玩, 但係立時會覺得佢地係互相友好, 唔會有邊個排擠邊個嘅情況, 對於某D小朋友, 一個咁友善嘅學習群體, 對佢地上堂真係會增加投入感, 呢樣亦都係我感受到嘅分別.  對於一D容易受人影響嘅小朋友, 由其見功.

謝謝你的分享. 對，看過ica小朋友上堂情形，明白你說"互相友好"的意思. 但沒有見過esf, 故未能作出比較. Thx again for your useful info.

想補充一下, 之前所提的, 都是基於老大那班, 人數比較少.  現在的Y2是廿多人, 但不會超過25人, 有什麼影響我不說不上.  但有家長跟我說, 還是很滿意的.  至於教孩子做人德育處世, 整體來說是蠻注重的.

老大上Y1&Y2, 我覺得學得蠻多.今年上Y3, 英文上比我們之前的ESF, 教得更多, 做得更好, 數學我未有機會比較.  但老二去年在ICA上Y1, 我覺得所學不如老大Y1, 再加上他那班出了點义子, 而他那性格上什麼學校都好說, 為了中學才轉了他過去.  不論上什麼學校, 除了校風, 也看老師.

Thx elmostoney for your sharing.

For ICA, we had different experience. It is better to check more opinions from other parents at school.

I have applied year 1 for my daughter, but no news yet, except the confirmation letter to acknowledge my application

agree with YTLam.  多聽不同家長心聲, 每人要求不同.  更重要是一定要school visit, 相信自己的眼睛.   而且弄清楚心中要求, 如果設施. 中學這些都很重要, ica就不合要求.  有些人會要求每星期學校有課程匯報進度, ica這方面是不怎麼做的, 功課也少 (補充一下: 有些家長真的喜歡多功課, 不單單是ica, 其他國際學校也有), 有些會要求大大提高程度, 其實就是接近本地學校了, 所以當別人說那間學校好, 也先理解家長自己有什麼要求.

There will be a Christmas Fair at ICA on Nov 30  (Saturday) 2 ~ 5 pm.  It is a fund-raising activity for the school, but it could also be a good opportunity to meet some of the ICA parents and children.
