ICS or CAIS 誠意了解各位意見

Both are good. I just wonder if ICS will make them less exposed to HK local culture and given high academic standards, the kids may not have time to go through private tutorials on traditional Chinese.
For CAIS, I like their happy learning culture. Not sure if academic results are also good? Thanks
