報playgroup入國際幼稚園 (ESF hillside / CWB Victoria)

edwinason

想小朋友讀IB，目標 1. ESF(hillside) > 2. CWB Victoria，都係港島而且相對affordable
而家想到8months就開始幫佢報港島全英/英粵playgroup

ESF(hillside)
ESF playgroup 雖然全英，但好似對入ESF(hillside)冇幫助

CWB Victoria
報artplus對入CWB Victoria好似有一定幫助，但其實我心儀ESF(hillside)多d，因為VSA好似中國文化重d，唔知要唔要讀埋國民教育

而家煩惱緊報playgroup，我知港島仲有Tutor time (聽講好好，但我唔想英普)，woodland (全英，但accompanied冇 sat/ sun揀)，英國文化協會(全英，但冇咩近年feedback參考)，港島仲有冇其他全英playgroup推介?

而家點揀group好?
1. 報artplus，到時照考ESF(hillside)，唔得都有可能有CWB Victoria做backup
2. 報ESF playgroup/ 其他全英playgroup，主攻ESF(hillside)，到時想報埋CWB Victoria係咪完全無可能? 因為冇讀artplus/ 其他VEO playgroup

求指點, many thanks!!

小朋友幾年前讀過ESF hillside, woodland, 英國文化協會playgroup，其實全部都大同小異，亦冇咩特別嘢做（如果有心嘅喺屋企都做到嗰啲嘢），只係為左聽英文而去。

Hillside playgroup惟一好處係俾小朋友熟習interview 環境，但你可以留返大啲先去都未遲。

Artplus我冇研究，但其他playgroup基本上唔會差太遠，揀時間地點就可以。

ESF PG, woodland, 英國文化協會playgroup有冇邊間推介d?
ESF PG 係咪對入Hillside 冇加分 (唔計為熟習interview 環境)?

Thanks

以前我冇經驗都曾經好緊張，周圍上playgroup，但其實佢地真係大同小異，如果你只係想為入IS，想俾小朋友習慣英文環境，咁你隨便上你講嗰幾間(woodland, tutortime, ESF, British Council) 都可以。

呢啲playgroup 不外乎一齊唱歌、arts and craft、messy play、free play、story time、circle time，遇到好老師就好，唔太關邊間playgroup事。

Vic會教中國文化，會播國歌升國旗，可能你唔中意

揀ESF N班 直上K 直上Y1
咪唔使諗咁多

How old is your kid?  If you want to ensure a place at Hillside, you should try to get into their Pre-K program at Tung Chung or Wan Chai.  Other than that, ESF doesn't really look at which playgroups your kid went to.  It matters more whether you have a foreign passport.
For CWB Vic, yes go to Arts Plus.

多謝你提一提我，我想小朋友讀IS就係唔想呢樣咁可能要諗過其他backup
港島相對平民嘅國際學校有冇其他選擇(可以俾一年十幾萬學費但唔想買debenture，CDNIS 都近我，但計埋annual capital levy 每年200k) ?

Just 3 months. Tung Chung really too far for me but seems that all kids can proceed to the primary directly?
Is joining Wan Chai Pre K an advantage for getting in Hillside?  Anyway, I will probably enrol that coz I want my kid to study in ESF
I know foreign passport really matters but I dun have...aiii

GSIS 學費都算抵，要debenture但fully refundable。只不過無乜家長咁有自信當GSIS係back up...
