ESF abacus 用家請教

sabsab122

只是睇過官網的virtue tour, 覺得環境好大自然，好靚，所以報咗K1 同playgroup. 但早幾日上playgroup我有啲失望,
環境不如video 般整潔優美，是雜草亂生冇人打理，所有設施都好舊（除咗班房入面），三輪單車扶手位置是生鏽的，周圍積水好多蚊，洗手間衛生環境亦欠佳⋯
去完一次playgroup 其實已經唔想去第二次….

疫情下，大家都講求衛生整潔，
何況是幼兒園,點解個環境會咁樣…？
究竟係之前停課停太耐，所以冇人打理？？
定係個環境一向都係咁?
求用家分享，謝謝！

個厠所不嬲好似去咗郊野公園。幾年前去過playgroup 。係raw 嘅，因為似village school。但一定有人打理。

我對abacus 的第一印象和你一樣
當時看過校舍後，入讀的興趣大打折扣，之後再出邊報了很多其他我認為標誌的學校,但我仍然沒有放棄報Abacus 。
重重考慮之後最後入讀了abacus，你說的問題是從來都這樣，但我女讀好開心，我喜歡這間學校親近大自然，和別的學校不一樣他賣點沒有學騎馬打網球，而是讓小朋友關於大自然，學習環保，校風純樸老師教學好認真很有責任感。我唔知道其他班級如何我知道我們就讀的一班、家長、學生都好好，大人細路都鍾意返學，是一間很好的學校，就連門口的教職員到時熱情有禮貌。
開學的第一天，家長陪同課室上堂，玩具佈置很有趣，有趣的是這些不是玩具而是真實的用品，廚房佈置真係有個鑊鏟和螺絲粉，紙做的廁所，你可以形容大人細路都被這些「玩具」深深吸引。
好似放學返嚟我女總是好多嘢講，
好主動表達，懂的英文一天比一天多，所以我覺得學費是抵比的
純粹用家分享，希望分享對你有幫助
補多一句學校都有佢嘅優點
看父母想子女得到哪方面的優勢
希望我嘅意見對你有參考價值

Agree ! My son left the school 4 years ago but he still loves Abacus so much. Whenever we pass there, he would say my school ... it can tell he was super happy with the school.

Thanks so much for your sharing! I actually did hesitate after attending the 1st playgroup class.
and I did actually think of dropping all the lessons!!!!lol

But after I attended the whole term, I’ve changed my view a bit.

I think their learning activities and lesson structure (which is just free play around different stations indoor and outdoor) somehow meet my expectations.

(I have to admit that  I m a very picky person,
And I didn’t even enrol my child to any PN coz none of them in TKO area meets my requirements)


I’m so glad to hear all these wonderful feedback about Abacus.
Coz my daughter is starting K1 there soon :)


I heard that kids are expected to be very independent (e.g go to toilet by themselves without any 姐姐helping .) is that true? coz my child will just be 2 years 9 months by August n I m kind of worried

Also,
If my child is very shy to play with others ( or even play in the stations) and just wandering around the classroom/ playground, will the teachers or TA encourage her? Or just let her to do nothing?

Sorry for so many weird questions, and  thanks so much for your help.

I cannot help with your questions....Just wanna say hi because we think alike...I also live in TKO and also didn't enrol my daughter in PN for the same reason. She ends up commuting to Sai Kung (HKA playgroup) and Kowloon Bay (a Montessori centre).  I'm glad the commuting will be over soon as she'll join FIS Nursery in September.

其實我冇了解過其他學校的環境、學習方式，之前去過九龍塘York聽他們介紹學校，$15000自製全日學，王子公主「開心谷」升小學要各散東西，佢哋都好多入到名校紀錄；Woodland環境都是家長欣賞放心喜悅的，讀完K3再入國際學校可能條隊唔知排到邊，如果唔行國際學校Woodland可能太happy學術唔知會否難追上其他傳統學校。
Abacus 外觀不華麗，國際學校來講佢都算實而不華，esf在剛過去的成績算得上彪炳，在國際比賽更加有令香港人驕傲的成績。
我唔會極力推薦，每位家長對子女期望不同，我都經過過這個時間，當年我報咗17間幼稚園，淨係拍片剪接都攪到傻咗，當時最擔心係學術唔夠，唔知使唔使補中文，真係諗過要讀兩間幼稚園，到而家當然冇啦TT

謝謝你的分享。反而我只報了兩間K1, 因為大部份的國際學校是2022不收細B K1 的,  我又從來冇考慮過讀本地。
要2023先可以上K1. 我又唔想等太耐了。
重讀PN or K1 我都覺得好無謂，寧願早讀一年留返時間俾佢大個咗如果想take gap year 會比較有意義。
所以其實ESF  係今年唯一選擇，希望適合小朋友吧。
但佢係超級內向怕羞型，唔知八月開學會點🥹

請問小朋友現在是否都在ESF 小學呢？

佢地係好注重independent，唔著得nappy。但老師會幫做唔到嘅小朋友，好似我女入學時同你女一樣大，個toilet都唔識坐上去，我有請老師幫一幫佢。佢開學前一個星期先啱啱開始肯去廁所痾wee wee，估唔到返學後又都做得唔錯。當然都預咗會成日痾濕，到下學期好好多，佢大d識自己講，或者知道忍係唔得嘅。

yes and no. He did not speak much when he was 2-3 but I saw his change after attending Abacus. Indeed before joining Abacus, he was doing his N class with Anfield where he started to be more active.

不會。playgroup 係play based, 唔需要坐定。其實K1都唔expect 坐定。
