學之園pn

Monstereasy

當然可以站在道德高地大聲疾呼，求學不是求分數，幼園並非為考小一。但幾多人可以選擇逃離小一制度。當唔夠分，唔想將運命放在抽獎，唔想讀國際學校，考直私係唯一出路。當大部分直私口說只着重禮貌，現實考串字重組句子時，就明白幼園為何如此。

True and agree, the whole school system is making every parent nervous and put away the whole point of early childhood learning. I believe, just I believe we need our child to be creative and have a happy childhood by letting them play and the real learning should come at age 4, 5,. Not in the PN age. I have an experiences with Cannon playgroup while my son was just 16 months, they ask my son to sit quietly and cannot get the toys til the teachers let u. The teacher told me they train the kid for school interview as the main goal . And told me if I m not comfortable with this kind of environment u would better go to international school.
It just gives me a feeling that they are running a business rather than education .

When a kid wants to paint an elephant pink and they punish him, then it is seriously wrong in my opinion.

我朋友既小朋友讀過三間名幼, 佢話學之園唔算嚴, 起碼故事時間小朋友可以自己㨂位坐, 畫畫唔會要求小朋友畫得好靓。其中一間九龍塘名幼要求小朋友畫畫要跟老師一模一樣,  畫得唔靚會扣分

I always believe Chinese people are very smart.
But this kind of teaching method is killing everyone's creativity (that's one of the reasons why Chinese are copycats, very good at it by the way, but can rarely bring along their ideas or be creative).  We can only do what we are told but cannot build in our own ideas.

Sadly, but this is the fact. 我覺得家長要早啲考慮定小朋友行local定international條路

呢個係香港社會既問題，唔可以只係話幼稚園問題。讀唔起國際學校，就要玩同一個遊戲，大家都係面對現實！有邊間可以真正咁冇限制，個個創意無限？

另外我小朋友都係讀學之園PN,佢油畫亂來都冇比罰亦冇投訴。你個case好特別。坐好係考小學基本要求，接受唔到就可能要讀國際學校。但LH 冇要求你全程唔郁，反而係應玩則玩。

That's one of the reasons why more and more local kids are in the international schools now.
Another concern we have regarding LH is that they stress a lot on academic.

During the last parents meeting of the term, the principal told the parents to 'get ready and do not relax during the summer holidays'.  And the principal stressed that the years after would be even more tougher.  Get prepared not to give too much time for your kids to play and get ready to study with your kids more.  They will setup courses on Saturdays for kids to attend too.

That's exactly what the principal said to us and it was driving us crazy!

有幾多人可以讀到國際學校？我有不少朋友都比佢地既子女讀國際學校，但又話品行麻麻。香港係好奇怪既地方

對於你的事件很遺憾，如果我孩子因畫畫受罸我亦會很氣憤。幸運地過去孩子功課無論課題是什麼只畫ironman, 亦無受過任何投訴，老師只說他真的很愛ironman。

We are not angry at all.  We just don't appreciate their over-discipline method of teaching and the whole direction of the school.  We feel like the school messed up our kid last year so badly (he cried for 3 months and didn't talk in school for almost 6 months).
This year he is slowly getting back to normal after 3 weeks in the new school (he enjoys and talks to teachers and classmates and wants to go to school on Saturdays and Sundays also).

品行在乎身教，但大部分國際學校中文水平偏低，而中文的國際地位日漸提升，係香港有學好雙語既條件而放棄有點可惜。

There is no right or wrong in teaching a kid, is just about weather the parent accept the local famous kindergarten method. I know that many parents like the LH method and prefer more discipline and academic over free time and play in school.

我小朋友讀了學之園4年，剛剛7月才畢業。小伙子在畢業前哭訴話唔捨得學校。老師們真的好好，幾天前我才收到她的電話問小朋友小一適唔適應，還叫我們OPEN DAY返去見面。

每個家長對自己小朋友的要求都會唔同，我覺得聽老師講守紀律係應該，沒有紀律同大陸人有咩分別。其實學之園對小朋友紀律要求只是好基本，聽從指令我覺得係小朋友應該學嘅野，玩的時間小朋友可以任意發揮，小朋友喜歡觀察由得佢觀察，唔好阻住佢，我絕對同意。但當老師有正式要求時，任由小朋友ignore，係唔係一件好事呢?

我老公唔係本地人，考慮左好耐因為中文緊要所以捨棄國際學校。

身教係好重要，但如果學校同自己個套身教差太遠，小朋友冇所適從。教唔好的。以我朋友為例，知書識禮，小朋友都同自己好大分別。尤其上左中學既，朋輩影響好深，見同學多過父母，揀學校都要各方面去考量。

學之園課程深唔深，真係見仁見智，我只可以說，學校給予的硬件和軟件絕對可以幫到小朋友適應香港大多數小一生活同面對正常的小一面試。  話說回頭，我小朋友在班內唔屬於成績標青的一個，但老師從來沒有給予壓力，校長更再三再叮囑家長唔好俾小朋友咁大壓力。如果有朋友問我邊間幼稚園好，我絕對會介紹佢地去學之園。

Having discipline is important.  But over-doing it makes the kids very robotic.

Last year when I asked my son to make a choice, he had a very difficult time to make his choice (in the playgroup the year before he made the decision very quickly and let you know what he wanted without fear).  This year he is back to normal with his self confidence coming back (as a result he can make his choices quickly, talk to classmates and teachers, talk to strangers, etc etc).

Glad to hear that. I do believe you had made the right choice for your kid.  加油!
