Dear TTJTmama,

I think HKUGA is suitable for active boy, becoz they have the time for stretching exercise for the child every after lunch time.

上述4間都是好學校,
而且各有不同特點...要求...規格...等等,
地區也盡不同,
如你真的想了解多一點,
可以到上述學校的個別專欄看看或查詢,
相信他們(家長們)很樂意解答你的疑問....喵喵

Paul Boys, St. Jo, Wah Yan 都係d"較為"傳統既教學, 佢地都有宗教背景, 歷史悠久.  (成績都係以"分數"黎區分)

而HKUGA 係新開小學, 全部用既係活動教學, 功課小, 但project多, 家長亦要多d時間協助projects.

你個仔好動唔係主要"考慮"問題, 而係佢既思維同集中力可唔可以應付學校既要求.  邊個男仔唔好動?好動唔一定代表要活動教學.  

如果佢可以manage到"較傳統"式既功課 (做workbook, 應付tests/quiz/assessment), 佢都可以去"較傳統"既學校. 呢d學校, 家長既"參與"相對較少, 對在職父母黎講會好一點.

如果你唔想佢日日做功課而唔介意佢做project, HKUGA就比較適合.  但係家長就要放多好多時間去參與協助projects, 仲有好多家校活動同家長groups, 所以要有心理準備.

再強調, 好動唔等於上堂可以周圍走, 上堂都要守規矩紀律.  唔好只係諗小朋友既性格而選校, 都要考慮埋家長能唔能夠handle到學校對家長既要求, 始終: 家校合作至可以教好個小朋友架

閱讀風氣佳不佳?  有次好奇online翻查他們 library 近一年的閱讀龍虎榜, 發現頭二十位有十九位是中文書, 唯一一本英文還是puzzle book.  極其量只能說"中文閱讀風氣佳"; 還是, 學校不太promote English reading 呢?

哈哈.....可能係屋企睇得多呢.......中英文都好,最緊要愛閱讀就是了

我仔咪讀Paul Boys' P1囉! 我覺得佢地又冇人地傳聞中st. jo o個種咁大壓力.  

有d pushy總係有既.  但我又唔覺得呢d叫"好大"壓力.  我個仔唔係top of the class, 不過學校冇打電話同我傾話我教子不力!  

學校唔要求學生十項全能 (at least o係初小階段), 佢地有好多唔同既activities, 不過唔expect學生一人join 3樣.

閱讀係有既.  英文書都有, 不過我仔既英文書多數o係老師特定"派"比佢地做book report, 而中文書就係自由o係library借, 所以d lib record至會出現借中文書多過英文書.  而且學校每學期都有平offer比學生訂scholastic英文書, 仲邊度洗去借?

我朋友話閱讀風氣好,佢亞仔d同學借埋亞仔屋企d書,唔!等我問下係咩書先,唔通係漫話
不過,都有聽過st paul boy 近幾年質素下降, 唔知有冇人可以分享下   但學校已轉直資,收3,000學費,應該有d過人之處呀

Teresa,

As u said, "我仔咪讀Paul Boys' P1囉! 我覺得佢地又冇人地傳聞中st. jo o個種咁大壓力."
我諗因為paul boy 唔係"金字塔"式,所以小朋友冇不必要的壓力. 你可唔可以share下你對paul boy 的睇法
:  u know, paul boy was a very good school in my days, haha...

其實我都係憑個仔個情況而講.

我仔以前讀既kindergarten係一間中文幼稚園, 學既英文唔多.  最初入paul boys' 時我都擔心佢英文跟唔上 (esp.  見佢地general eng, reader同general studies都幾深).

不過, 開學後發現佢地教英文教得幾慢, d vocab都係由淺入深.  教grammar都係用返用開既reader同general english textbook附助 (當然有grammar書).  

學校既英語環境都幾好.  小一oral係double堂, 有2個nat teachers一齊上, 佢地既accent係好清楚既英國accent.  平時佢地有本叫英文passport, 小息時就拎住本passport搵老師用英文打招呼同傾計, 老師就會簽個名o係passport度, 同學間就會比賽斗多簽名, 有獎架.

不過讀paul boys'做功課要快手, 因為除左daily homework, 仲有1星期2次dictation (中/英), 每日一篇 (中/英), weekend有book report, 有時有資料搜集, 仲有平時學樂器都要時間practise.
