What Parents Say
Real feedback collected from forums and social media
“VEO考local唔算好標青，多數家長aim國際學校或直私。但照顧好、環境乾淨。”
“VEO走IB路線，筆順、加減數讓孩子自行探索。升local小學需要糾正。若決心走local路，靈糧堂升小銜接舒服啲。”
“HH 係全部trilingual, K1開始有stepping up. CBVic stepping up 分咗英普同英粵,由K2開始。 之前有比較過兩間嘅中文教材。HH 會比較多同深，但係唔會差太遠。”
“近幾年很多人說VEO學術深了，其實係因為VSA近年學術加深了幼稚園就要跟 Trilingual program就真係Trilingual，每班三個老師，通常本地小朋友傾向係英文>粵>普，大陸學生對住本地學生會講英文或跟佢哋講廣東話，所以本地學生普通話講得少啲，但如果上到VSA英普語境，你就會發現佢哋普通話完全無問題。”
“HH是旗艦店”
“當初選擇veo，就知道考直/私一定要外補 佢地行IB，學習模式唔係俾你攻考小 但IB 學習模式亦唔係每個小朋友合適 家長應該最清楚小朋友性格 唔好過於將自己期望放喺佢地身上。”
