Parent FAQ

What is the specific process for the waiting list interview for P1?

According to the school website, the interview has two parts: first, a teacher talks to the child, assessing politeness, discipline, concentration, and basic kindergarten-level knowledge; second, the principal/vice-principal or panel talks to parents, understanding parent-child relationship and parenting style, and considering alignment with school philosophy. The interview is usually held in early to mid-June, and parents should check the website in late May for application details.

What does 'experience-based learning' look like in practice?

The school emphasizes learning through actual experiences. For example, P1 students visit Kadoorie Farm to learn about nature; P2-3 students go to camps to develop self-care; P4 students attend a 5-day military training on Cheung Chau; P5 students travel to Singapore to practice English and broaden international perspective; P6 students visit Beijing to learn about national history. Additionally, there is the Tsang Mui Corps leadership training and the 'Sunshine Tonight' stage play.

How does the school support new P1 students' adaptation?

The school offers a 'P1 Adaptation Course' in the first two weeks, covering routine training (e.g., writing handbook, packing schoolbag, queuing), emotional support (self-introduction, emotion talks), campus tour, and academic bridging. Parent support includes pre-school meetings, adaptation workshops, and class WhatsApp groups. In early November, an 'Adaptation Assessment Form' is sent to parents to understand the child's adjustment.
