Pudding, Thanks for your sharing. I like this school because I believe it encourages students to express their own feelings and less written assignments. I can tell from the interview last year because my son loved all parts of it, puzzles, exercise, IQ questions and talents show. This school encourages students to read and students are separated into different groups according to their English standard. I think this is great because students could read what they like to read at their level, but not anything too easy or difficult. I fed up with the traditional teaching methods and I hope my son will find the joy of learning in this school. Thanks. 3lamma |

Hi Pudding For my point of view, I dun want my daughter study in a traditional school because of the homework issue. After the school seminar, I have much confident on this school and I believe my daughter will have a good primary school life as well as become an active student. Although I heard a lot of negative comments on this school, the principle gave me a power that I haven't made a wrong decision at all.........and hope all our children can adapt the school culture in a short period.......I hope we can share the experience here for more understanding their learning environment and other aspects..........cheers Thanks, Joanna |

Dear all, My husband and I select this school for our daughter because of its through train. We give up the seat in Alliance Primary school because we don't want to play the lucky draw game in P6 and attend lot of secondary schools' interviews. We favour the teaching method of 'A school' - active and encourage self-studying. Less homework allows our kid to enjoy her extra-circular activiies. To equipe herself to face the challenge in the 21st century, we should not restrict her contact in 'school books' only. :-o :-o |

May I know why this school needs to charge a higher fee than other DSS? For example, if compared to St. Margaret Co-ed, BU uses mostly local teachers to teach English and its fee is higher. So how is it better than others? Thanks. |

Dear all, My daughter will be in P. 1 this September and we live in Kam Tin, Yuen Long. I phoned the school bus provider earlier and they told me that there isn't any school bus in Yuen Long area. I am so worried about the issue. Do any of you live in the similiar area ? keep in touch. |
