Me too, DD1 in Sec 2 this yr. She’s looking forward to the boarding experience so she can spend more time with her classmates and best friends.

Hi. I am a year 1 mum. Is boarding in school compulsory for year 2 girls ? If so, for how long? Thanks


Also, is there anything that you "experienced" mums can highlight and guide us "new" mums along? Many thanks.

Yes, compulsory! Only 4 weeks. I think that is a very good experience to both mum n daughter…

[Tough Cookie]

Wah, 4 weeks!! I am sure it will be a positive experience for mums and daughters but right now, it’s unthinkable for me… maybe next year by this time I will be more mentally prepared.


Did you have to guide your daughters much in their first year? Is there somewhere that I can check their schedules such as examination dates, camps.

Thanks.

:yikes: I feel faint after reading above :gloomy: ...Can they come back during weekends?

Hi, another Year 1 mum here! Is anyone going for the IPAD session this Sat?


As for the boarding school, I recalled reading somewhere that the gals are allowed to go back during weekends or even weekday evenings for their private lessons like piano, etc?

[Xnowy]

yes, they are allowed to go back on weekend. and the girls are allowed to go private lessons, tuition. but not on Friday night as school has program for them. Sat morning also has activities to attend.


To me I am very happy about that (幸灾乐祸）, cant imagine how messy her bed will be…hahaha

Hi clover18. What's this IPAD session about?

Hi Tough Cookie
There is a workshop tomorrow on IPAD use in the school; believe it's open to parents of sec 1 and sec 2 girls.
