人生交叉點 Anfield vs Kingston vs YC 如何決擇？

sagesage

YC 第一個offer, 全日2歲班交了留位費，一條龍，但擔心普通話及英語環境不夠。

Anfield First Steps 收到 Offer Kowloon Tong, 上過 Toddlerobics 及報了 Playgroup.暫時沒有不滿意地方！但$14000留位費要考慮清楚，我還要X2.最擔心Anfield 升小學問題、只有50個位。

Kingston 12月初才見面試，Open House 感覺50%普通話50%英語，見小學部學生英語能力很好，地點環境幾好。要每三年交$8萬，學費其實三間差不多，幾千元差別。但見EK講2歲班只餘20個位，又不知面試表現如何，心情不好大哭要走就煩！能否一條龍升kingston 小學亦是重要因素，官網寫明1歲班優先升小。

如果你是我如何決擇呢？？？

要academic 就kingston, 直上小學應該無問題, 如果校長無講錯, 今年有60 個小一位, 59 個係kg 上, 只得一個係外來生.  亦應該有一堆kg 學生去其他小學, 唔係個個都會想上番原校.
我覺得Anfield 感覺好caring, 小班, 細校, 有Discipline, academic 無kingston 咁強.  
kingston 99% 香港人, Anfield 雖然都係多香港人, 但都有d 外國人, 英語環境同老師我當日接觸都覺得比Kingston 好.

YC 因為報警唔洗錢, 都照報, 我有個friend 個女讀緊2 歲班, 超開心, 不過我未visit, 俾唔刑comment.

我希望我出年都會同你一樣面對相同既交叉點! 我3 間都有報, 2015/16 先入PN.

i have similar situation, but my third option is Victoria instead of Kingston.  Already has offer from YC for full day program.  Not quite worried about the school or its program, but still hesitating in putting my child into a full day class.  Waiting for Anfield Pre-K offer.  I quite like the school as it is small so teachers tend to be more focus and caring.  I'm also impressed with their creativity in structuring the curriculum.  As for Victoria, they just started with application so need to wait till Feb for the interview.  Problem is there are so many people out there that apply to Vic, so i can't even be sure if I can get an interview or, even an offer.

When do you need to confirm the offer from YC?  I think the offer from Anfield should come anytime.  When did you apply?

We received the interview invitation from Kingston earlier this year.  I understand that an interview invitation from Kingston is sort of equivalent to an offer under normal circumstances.  At that time, we have already paid HK$13.6K and confirmed offer from Anfield, so it was an easier situation for us, and the thought of paying HK$72K non-refundable capital levy (to Kingston) for kindergarten education also did reinforce our decision to stick with Anfield.  However it was my gut feel to finally decide to reject the interview invitation from Kingston.  We did not hesitate coz we were already very convinced and so looking forward to school opening at Anfield at that point of time.  I have no experiences with Kingston, so I cannot comment or compare it with Anfield.  Having said that, I believe it is a good school coz most comments I heard are positive.  As far as Anfield Whampoa is concerned, we are very happy with the school to date.  So my 2 cents worth of advise is to just go with your gut feel, so we cannot possibly try every school.

i would see vic is more local and very popular for those who targets 直資/私小。 Difficult choice.

Why?

So far Anfield gives me a feeling of less commercial, better English enviornment and good discipline with the catholic background. The only down side is maybe less chinese teaching And no secondary school.The capital levy of kingston is really a put off for me. I cannot be sure that I will stay in kingston throughout yet.
At the end just my gut feeling indeed.  
But I know kingston and YC are more famous among IS

I like Kingston.
