july_rhapsody

Dear all moms,

What will u choose if ur girl is assigned canossa primary school(HK)?

Please help   

janet

好難揀喎,一間中文一間英文,一間要俾錢,一間唔使俾錢~~如果我自己就一定係揀canossa啦~~因為唔使錢,同埋都好多人入得返佢地既中學~~程度都唔差呢~~

思樂媽媽

吾洗諗, 我一定吾揀canossa..
中小升上英中會辛苦小小
canossa..是半日制的..最衰係1年上午班下1年又下午班咁...
4測2考加每周要默書..都幾吃力 :-|

canossa下年轉全日喇~~

I was gratulated in Canossa Primary School (HK) for primary & Canossa College for secondary.  It is a good school.  中上 lar.

Compared with St Paul, St Paul must be 上上 lar, but need to pay.

Dear ChuChuTau,

Do u find difficulty in overcoming the change  transiting from primary to secondary school which uses English as teaching medium?

Can you tell me more on the differences between the 2 school?

According to my experience, change from Chinese primary to English secondary may have some difficulties at the beginning, but can be overcome within the first term.  It was 20 years ago for me, at that time most primary are Chinese while most secondary schools are in Eng.  Therefore, this is necessary to go through for most of the students at that time and everyone seems OK.

No great different between primary & secondary, both are traditional girl schools.

If I live in HK side, I must let my daughter to join this school.  Some of my previous classmates also choose Canossa for their daughter.

1. english primary school.
2. Through train to secondary. also english.
3. Not much homework & less pressure in studying.
4. for me, the school fee is okay for private school.

其實以學術成績而論，當然St paul convent 會高一些，但以校風來說，選canossa primary school(HK)應較適合。

根本兩校都不在同一範籌，難以直接比較。St paul convent 一切以成績為首，資源充沛，直資名校。若孩子天資聰敏，又有能力提供學費、課外活動(暑期出國作學生交流)及校外補習作支援，這真是不作他選！

canossa primary school(HK) 作為津貼教會學校，以學生的德行培養為重，愉快校園生活為先，以全人發展為目標。在缺乏收生自主權下，還算不錯。兩所完全不同的學校，真要看父母的要求。若給我選的話，有能力(經濟與孩子資質)當然選擇St paul convent ，不然以學懂做人及有德行的孩子也不算壞。 本人有朋友也曾經說過，要入St paul convent 是要兒子能結識達官貴人的子女，好讓他日能攀龍附鳳(李首富兒子也曾就讀該校)，本人雖不認同，但亦尊重他的意向！

But St Paul's Convent is a girls' school!  Do you mean St Pauls' Co-ed? They are 2 different schools!

Are you sure?
As long as I know, St Paul Convent is less pressure than Canossa.  The examination is only covering three subjects (Chinese, English, Maths).  The principal emphasis many times that they would like all their students enjoy the happy school life and also 德行 is much important than 成績.  If you reach the basic standard (around 70 marks) you can get on the through train to their secondary school.  Most of the SPC kids are not necessary to attend 校外補習.  
Can any SPC parent share their experience?  Thanks.

我以前曾幫2個華仁小學補習，佢個校長都係咁講，所以功課很小，學校好輕鬆，老師教書好快，大部份同學都有80-90分，叻的有90分以上，其實很多家長會安排很多補習(各科一位補習老師)，學生根本自己會做很多練習，如果唔係哪有咁高分。所以對於學校，佢地唔需要push，學生已經識行，大部份仲識跑。
