tuition is about the same.

Greenfield is a bigger school and has better primary school placement. My kid is august kid was rejected by greenfield coz he wasn't able to finish all the required task by himself in the video.
Sophie campus is very spacious and nice. class size is much smaller. each class will have one cantonese and one net teacher in the classroom whole 3hrs.  50% will attend international school after K2. Sophie has less publicity so less known to ppl outside of the area. However, the principal is a PLK director. I think that helps kids to get a place in PLK primary school.

my kid has been attending sophie playgroup and he likes it. he will attend sophie PN in this august.

personally i prefer a bigger school with more different dynamics among children. anyway, we may try to apply greenfield again for K1.

Thanks so much for your sharing. Your kid was rejected for PN? I thought they still have vacancies now.  
What will they do for the interview at Sophie? We will go for PN interview next week.

Greenfield video is a bit challenging. It was submitted in Oct (14mth). The kids need to clap through a birthday song, cut veggie, chop stamps on a book, pick the right color balloons and kick a soccer ball. I have friends sept kids got accepted. My kids barely completed the task.

Sophie interview is very relaxing.The net teacher ask my kid to do walk a straight line and pass obstacle. move a few blocks.
The cantonese teacher ask my kid to pick the car and spoon and pass them to her.

Greenfield 有位，有點意外會唔收。我現在讀緊pn, 老師都ok既～ 停課期間，日日都有網課，都唔錯。但k1轉龍校

係啦，我仲以為實收添。係咪好多人都會考到龍校K1 轉走？請問英普好啲還是英粵？
睇落上年成績升小好似Sophie 好過Greenfield.

sophie only has about 20nos. student graduate from K3. The placement list may look better.my kid played with about 10 kids at the seaside promenade and they would attend PN these yr. they are all putonghua speaking and most of them applied greenfield. my kid was the only cantonese speaking. you can expect greenfield putonghua teaching will be very strong.

I see. Thanks for your information. I think you can still apply for insert class later as some people may withdraw when they receive better offers from LH, SC, etc

係啦，好多間課室，我覺得遲下一定有位，即7，8月時。

係呀，多人轉走
但其實老師幾好，小朋友返學都開心
我英粵班，都有普通話老師
又近屋企，但考到龍校就轉啦

請問一班大概有幾多學生同老師 （英粵）班？多唔多人K1 考到更好學校轉走？

基本上兩間都好易入，Sophie其實都好大間而且係同一間校舍內，但係gf係分開好多間房的（雖然加埋大過Sophie)

我都煩緊應該揀GF定Sophie, 我有去過Sophie個open day, 感覺啲老師好好，地方又大又靚，小朋友響Sophie 既open day玩得好開心，反觀GF好似好神秘咁，大家識唔識有人響浪澄GF讀過？comment如何？

only concern about sophie is class dynamic. u see the FB each photo has less than 10kids in the classroom. for hygiene and convid prevention is good. however, it will not as dynamic as a class of 28 students like other school.

Thanks for your sharing and information!

A child of a friend of mine is attending Sophie and she is very happy with the school.  Teachers are caring and concerned about the kids and would spare time to maintain close communication with parents.  The curriculum sounds quite competitive too.  Kids have to recognise chinese characters and learn phonics early.
