Why do you choose 聖文德天主教小學?
We are not choosing 聖文德天主教小學 only for reputation. We value the signals around Humility and honesty, Pursuit of wisdom, Catholic core values (love, justice, service). At home, we support reading, self-care and polite conversation, and we are ready to work with teachers to understand our child's needs.
How will your family support the school?
We will respect the school's language, religious or cultural background, keep stable routines at home, build reading habits and follow up early if teachers identify a support need.
What makes your child a good fit?
Our child is still growing, but we see progress in curiosity, sharing, listening and completing small responsibilities. We hope 聖文德天主教小學 can help continue that growth.
How do you prepare if the child feels nervous?
