GF also hunt teacher from funful (kln tong) because I heard from a parent that , she recognized a GF teacher. They met before when she attended playgroup @funful with her kid. The teacher taught @ funful.

thanks. it is good that GF can reschedule time. Many kindergartens do not allow reschedule time.  It seems that GF is more expensive than LH.  GF 課程深嗎?值得讀嗎?

how about comparing the 2 kinders in the following ways:

- teaching philosophy
- carefulness and heart of teachers
- content of classes (play / language / projects)
- homework (time expected per day and parents involvement)
- teachers' ability
- environment

thanks!

我小朋友pn及現在K1也在GF long beach讀。so far 都好滿意學校。本身我小朋友好怕羞、被動、怕事，但進步了很多，pn畢業禮時，成班同學上台表演，好投入，見佢唱歌唱到好high。課程屬於偏深。現在K1上學期，開始揸筆連缐、畫點點。maths concept用英文教。普通話用青田出版的「我自己會讀」系列，英文用Oxford reading tree，phonics現在K1上學期是letter phonics revision (因為pn已教），下學期開始教jolly phonics。廣東話用「教育出版社」教材。K1返學3.5 hours，我小朋友選了英普粵班，每日1.5 hours English , 1.5 hours PTH ., 0.5 hour Cantonese. 師生比例max 1:8。每月費用大約$6300.

不過，LH 名氣大D，而且有考小一成績參考，這亦是GF long beach不足之處，因為是新校。

漏咗講，每星期都有親子閱讀。

至於老師方面，相信每間學校的老師都有好有唔好，每個人的教法、風格都唔同。而我小朋友都算幸運，pn時和現在K1的老師都對佢好好、好留意佢。湊返學時，我會問吓老師阿女現在上課如何，老師說，因為她的性格是咁咁咁，所以我哋會咁咁咁教佢。老師係講中哂阿女的性格。大致上, GF long beach老師大多是年輕的，但care學生。另外，校長都好落力吓，每日返學都幫手take care學生。我想，這也是細校的優點，校長會同家長social吓，傾吓小朋友在校的情況。

功課方面，每天都有功課，1至兩樣。另每星期親子閱讀，要做book report.

Thanks very much for your information.
I just phoned them and they said cannot change interview time unless
parents are not in HK that day (need boarding pass) or
children is sick(need medicine letter for proof).

I think getting into LH is more difficult than GF. Should I interview GF instead of LH ?
My baby girl is august baby.

A mama said, LH (HL campus ), 5 pn class, 4 k1 class. So......I think it's difficult to get a placement there . U can call LH (HL campus) to ask how many new k1 students for the academic year 2013-14.
