應該選BAND 幾的中學

dictation

連校長本身英文都甘差, 除左大6人同有津貼既公務員有興趣讀之外......其他人比甘貴學費真係要諗清楚

明白大家擔心什麼!  無可否認此校確實有不足地方!
但不是大家說倒這麼恐怖. 在者我諗一間學校不只是睇校長一個!!  此校始終辦了都一段日子, 方向而定.  而且整體老師都好緊要, 所有老師都好努力, 希望大家客觀討論評價.

非常贊同! 胡校長主要教中文, 英語能力不足, 亦不足為奇!
在家教會用英語致詞時, 可以看到她有用心, 有努力去做!
一個校長最要緊是有心, 英語演講要鍛鍊也不難吧! 現在大家是要給予機會及觀察呢! 一面倒地批評誰人不會?
家長為小朋友選擇學校, 都是希望小朋友在學校成長學習! 一味的批評, 給小孩聽了, 他們會有何想法呢?
再者老師的努力比校長的英語演講能力更加重要

吓？咁快resign左！消息係咪真㗎？咁如果佢走左，咪得返2位外籍老師，而且其中一位只係教I S喎！得返一位外籍教英文！

星期五番學都見到副校，另兩個外籍老師都一定有教英文，因為p3,p4都有教過我小朋友！

"在者我諗一間學校不只是睇校長一個!!"
under normal circumstances, a principal represents a school. A person who cannot speak English representing an English school is really embarrassing.

How can it not matter? The school will go under her directions, and because of this, how can she lead an English school? All principals have their own way of thinking, what has been done before by other principals is history. You must know that already if you're from HK. Which new leader won't bring in their own way of thinking?

"在家教會用英語致詞時, 可以看到她有用心, 有努力去做!"
I find it shocking that people find it alright if a principal can't speak English or she makes an 'effort' to speak in English. According to this, than anyone who can memorize a speech can be a principal.

"而且整體老師都好緊要"
The quality of this school's English teachers are also doubtful. I won't be sending my child there after visiting this school a couple of times. On the PTA ceremony, I came round for a 2nd time to see if my 1st visit was a mistake. English work displayed had a lot of mistakes, my friends' childrens' worksheets were full of errors (teachers had made them) and I spoke to the so-called Native teacher there. The lady comes from Italy, and my goodness, was her English bad. Having a European face doesn't mean that they can speak English to a 'native' level. This is what tutorial schools do to cheat parents.

So sorry, this school isn't really what it wants to be or what people say it is. Not just my personal view, but I've got quite a few friends saying so as well.

Wow.. English school is leaded from a poor english speaker. That sounds extremely ridiculous. Working hard on improving english is a good idea, yet trying hard on speaking english is totally another story!!  I aint buying that crab!!   Sadly, there isnt enough good school and options in Yuen Long and N.T.

I have to disagree. English is fine. It is not at an INTERNATIONAL school level, but it is much, much higher than local schools. The principal promotes Putonghua which is VERY important for HK students! BAND 1 secondary schools look at Chinese ability. I know that for many top Band1 local secondary schools and ALL international schools "good Chinese"="good Putonghua".

It would be nice if her English was better, but at the end of the day she doesn't teach kids anymore. Before becoming Principal, she was the head *Chinese* teacher. Every week in assembly she talks about Chinese culture and Cantonese-VS-Putonghua language errors. I am an overseas (HK) Chinese parent; I can't speak PTH, nor can my husband (not well, at least). We chose this school   as it has a good English & PTH environment. PTH was the 2nd major factor when deciding on Gigamind. The 1st was English, of course, but English alone is not enough in the 21st century.

轉了校長，學校沒有大的改變。
我的兩句：可能有些人期望Gigamind是一間國際學校或者一間久負盛名的學校。
在香港，Gigamind是一間獨一無二的學校，只要你認清學校的方式。給你五個原因：

1）小班、小校（全校二百多同學，每年級30-40....其他學校有600-1000同學，每年級100-150）所以學校有everybody knows your name文化、老實說老師比其他學校老師更關心）

2）同學好自由（教課活動啲、紀律不太嚴重、校服好casual、09:00才要上學、功課不多）

3）近屋企（國際學校和名校的直資學校很遠，我小朋友走15分鐘的路就到！）

4）英文及普通話環境（英文：上課／活動用英文，已經夠了.... 普通話呢？用普通話教中文，校長推薦普通話活動）

5）語言以外，其他科跟本地課程差不多（但是教得活動啲）＝同學預備好升中。

第1,2,3原因都是為小朋友開心而讀書不太辛苦。
第4,5是為小朋友升中。


我滿意這間學校是因為這五個原因。只要學校不改變這五個，我就開心。

我也喜歡這學校，至少它適合我的兒子，如重新再選，我也會選激活小學。當然，每間學校都會有優點及其未盡完善之處。雖然校長的母語不是英文，但學校已營造了英語的環境，英文科的功課及評估並不簡單，普遍學生都有良好的閱讀、聆聽及說話的能力。他們喜歡上學便是學習最大的原動力。

認同! 你和我的想法真一致! 再選都係激活, 一班十幾人,香港邊度搵! 佢地小五英文做緊出面主流既中三野~中文自編教材同埋老師北京腔抵晒!

各位，你們好，我是激活的家長，小女今年畢業。若我再選擇學校，都會選激活。小班教學很重要，學校雖然小，但帶給我女兒無限發揮的機會。她可以代表學校出外比賽，表演，朗誦，跳繩，作文比賽，小提琴，口風琴，畫畫，班長，圖書館管理員，風紀……！如果在其他小學，她只是100多人中的一個無名氏，但現在，因為有老師的關注和愛心，她用心學習，熱愛學校。

我本人十分感恩！謝謝。

時間過得真快，你女女要畢業了，當初我的小朋友入讀此校，多得你提點，希望你女女能有愉快充實的中學生活
