Greenwich Public School is situated across a split site with the two campuses located 1.5 km apart. The school's Vision Statement 'Learning for Living' recognises that whilst children are individuals with specific needs which must be met they also exist within a complex network of family, school, community and cultural diversity. This goal is achieved by offering a broad and enriching curriculum which draws upon a range of extra curricula programs and skills which exist within the parent community.

小学校。感觉还不错。
我当时也在Greenwich给宝宝注册了，但Greenwich的学生实在太白，加上还是觉得NSD大些，最后还是去的NSD
我们不是很喜欢大学校，人数多， 老师不能很好的照顾小朋友。所以选校的时候，这个也是一条。虽然很白， 但总体校风还是很正的，我们 孩子入学时，是全校最小的，语言不好，老师都能很好照顾。当然，个别老师也还是有偏见的。现在孩子yr2, yr1时曾有一段时间代课老师是极不公平，从孩子的评语中可以看出来。代课是短暂的一段， 我们也没有计较。
今天听同事说，她一个在小学里当老师的朋友说Greenwich今年生源不足，不知道是否属实。
这完全有可能，目前他们每年级只有两个班。而且还分INFANT SCHOOL 和 PRIMARY SCHOOL。 受学区限制，只在很小一个范围内招生。我们不在他们学区，只是当年KINDY老师推荐，才跨学区。所以也正常。

学术水平应该差不多,但自己感觉HURSTVILLE华人孩子的比例太多了, 很多大陆来的小孩几年下来广东话都进步不小，,所以更偏向CARLTON小学的相对LOCAL环境(不过近年来华人孩子也是越来越多了)

Chatswood 在Annual report says 60 students gain position in selective school. It is very good figure. How about other school? No everyone school focus on Academy

chatswood public华人比率达75%，确实有点高哦，那小孩的英语会不会进步得慢呀。

chatswood public是non english speaking background的比例有75%，这个75%不都是华人孩子。
早上上班看到小孩子们上学，不全都是华人，很多日本人和韩国人。chatswood这边韩国人越来越多了。

Chatswood Public School有两个OC班，Year 5一个， Year 6一个，每个班最多也就30个学生吧。
我女儿的Year 4有三个班，基本上有80个学生，听老师说，有一年Year 4考入本校OC的学生也就5个人而已。
Chatswood OC班的学区除了Chatswood和Chatswood West之外，还覆盖了下面这些区：
Beacon Hill，Belrose，Belrose West，Davidson，Forestville，Frenchs Forest，Fullers Bridge，Hunters Hill，Huntleys Point，Killarney Heights，Lane Cove，Linley Point，Roseville Chase，Sorlie，Willoughby，Woolwich。
你想想这么多区的小学生来一起竞争一个YEAR 5的OC班，80个人里只有5个学生入选也make sense。
所以OC班是非常难考的，能够进OC班的孩子都很不容易，值得骄傲和光荣。

遇到了一位两个儿子的妈妈。说曾经和chatswood的校长谈了谈。她说对校长印象一般，因为校长对孩子的智商很重视，很怕孩子将来成绩不够优秀，会拖大家的后腿。
也看了看chatswood的annual report。发现report上写明了2007年有60个孩子上了select school,有15上了OC of chatswood. 有种莫名的感觉，当然我知道了想知道的信息，可从一方面也觉得学校的倾向过于明显，有点怕怕！

Chatswood Public能进本校OC的没有这么多人。
没啥依据，但是我个人觉得，如果在Chatswood Public，如果你孩子的学业基本上不是班级的前三（当然实际没有这个排名的，但是可以从孩子的学业报告和学期结束的school Awards看的出来），基本上有难度。

Harcourt Pry at Ninth Ave of Campsie is considered good. 教车教练顾师傅的儿子就在Harcourt Pry上学，成绩相当好，据说什么英联邦数学统考得第一，私立中学给全额奖学金，那可不少，不过后来人家没有接受，没去上私立中学，转而去上了James Ruse农业中学，这可是全稀泥排名第一的中校，是公立的，无人不知吧。顾师傅给介绍经验就说，小学有没有OC班无所谓，关键要有G&T班　（Class for the gifted and talented）。Harcourt Pry有G&T Class，这就足矣。

Berala is a very good school, my son's school isn't bad also.
There are 5 students in his class got offer from Summer Hill.

据我所知，Carlingford小学，在Marsden Rd边上就完全不是这情况，我一朋友的两个女儿在那里上学，鬼子小孩居多，人数不多，学校总是组织各种活动，学习上没有多少竞争压力，一年考上OC的也就一两个，与Carlingford West截然不同。

从学习上讲，carlingford比carlingford west差得很远，carlingford只是一个普通的小学，local相对多些，人数少，全校300多人；carlingford west非常重视学习，每年有七八成的孩子进精英（听说的，没有具体考证），当然华人孩子比例很高，学校大，各项活动挺多的，band和string乐队都有。两个学校都没有OC班。周围的学校Epping West, North Rocks, Murray Farm,Beecroft, Eastwood, Denistone East 都是非常不错的小学。相对于这些，carlingford就很一般了。

我儿子在那里读了一年半,从英语零到现在听说读写都不错(相对一年半前),感觉挺好的,曾经见到在雨天,校长亲自给孩子们打着伞等校车。
Hornsby South, Waitara, 和Hornsby North其实都不错。
我女儿在Hornsby South读了一学期Kindy，感觉进步了很多，学校的学风也挺严谨的。每学期还有parent-teacher对话，老师会详细列出学生的发展状况。比现在的学校对孩子观察的要仔细。
中国学生的比例不算高，我女儿当初班上只有两个大陆来的中国人，另外的那个中国小男孩academic非常好。还有一些马来的，印尼的，很可能是华裔。基本比例大概是50%白人，另外50%就是各处的移民，包括印度，韩国，东南亚各国等。这是我从一次学校组织的看电影活动中感觉的。
在Hornsby地区，可能大家都爱争取去Waitara小学，因为有OC班，还有很多人prefer Hornsby North，但是真正去Hornsby South 的学生和家长实际上满意度还是挺高的。
我就是特别感动于那次短短的20分钟parent-teacher meeting， 老师详细汇报了我女儿的发展状况，告诉我哪里有待于提高，例如当时老师说我女儿不知道Daimond怎么说，数完100不知道下一个是101，还告诉我哪些发音有待于提高等。最后竟然告诉我，要回家练习写一些东西，我都觉得奇怪，刚一个term，就可以写东西了，我还真对她没那么高的要求呢，因为之前没有教过她任何英语。但是似乎老师觉得很有必要，小孩子也可以做到的。总之短短的一学期，给我女儿打下一个非常好的英语基础，使她顺利的度过了Sound out这一难关。
我感觉学校里一些印度等地的小孩还是满热情的，他们打起招呼来让人觉得很畅快。
学校还是小一点，大约300多人的样子。有after school care，但是条件一般，比waitara的差远了。canteen也只开两天，教室说真的没有现在的小学那么宽敞明亮。总之，我们只去了一学期，对这个学校还远了解的不够。我女儿也总是说，她更喜欢现在的学校，因为她有种融入的感觉，在那里，她还没有融入，基本没有friend，虽然有两个小孩以前和她一个幼儿园，但是一个是local的，一个是印度的，人家分别有自己的friend。在after school care，她就更孤单了，满眼望去，几乎全是白人小孩，她唯一能交上朋友的就是一个year1 的印度小孩儿。她最喜欢的就是坐学校的校车，邻居的一个year5的小姐姐可以照顾她，也是印度人，我女儿那段时间心理上特别依赖这个邻居小女孩及她的好朋友。

Hornsby South的教学也很不错，对学习抓得挺紧的。学校有校车，直达Hornsby火车站。HornsbySouth的鬼子小孩多一些，Waitara的印度和中国小孩多一些。这样学校的文化氛围就有点不一样了。这要看个人的取舍了。
如果想去HornsbyNorth，现在报名还来得及。晚了估计就来不及了。这个学校也有校车到火车站。

好像Hornsby North很大哦，我上周去的Hornsby South的information day，从家长数目看，不会超过2个班级的。

去年Hornsby South是三个班， waitara也三个班。Waitara原本打算招两个班的，后来改三个了。

纯粹听说，没有实地看过Waitara，Hornsby South
1、Waitara，Hornsby South据说学校比较小学生也少一些， Hornsby North学校算比较大的学生多；
2、Waitara的优势有OC班；
3、Waitara，Hornsby South对于Academic方面更注重一些；
4、Hornsby North学校搞的各类活动多一些，这个我孩子在里面，确实是这样。

看来North确实一直人数很多，今年5个班，去年也是5个班，但是升到一年级倒减成4个班。

EASTWOOD PUBLIC就是通用对面的那个学校对入学学生的要求一点不严的,我女儿以前在里面读的时候,同学有从WEST RYDE,ERMINGTON,DENISTONE等来的,而且进去以后你就会知道这学校现在已经不大好了.考精英学校的时候学校的分数是要扣分的,换句话说这小学的整体得分处于不大好的水平.

Eastwood public school中国孩子非常多，一个年级至少一个班孩子都是。
听好些朋友说那个学校不错。open day的时候去看过，一位家长跟我说对校服要求不严，皮鞋什么的不是一定非要黑色，据说这个方面可以省不少钱。

很好，升精英中学的比例很高，连鬼佬都知道这个知名度，据说是个华人校长。

没听过那里的华人家长说不好的。
反而HURSTVILL PUBLIC 的家长蛮多投诉的。据说最近还有从HURSTVILL PUBLIC 转去的。

经常在坛子里潜水，不太喜欢灌水，但是这次特殊一下，一来估计公校面试的经历可能会有人感兴趣；二来谨以此贴鸣谢旋版，我们能成功入学，旋版的面试贴功不可没啊！

得到CPPS的面试机会纯属偶然，孩子爸打电话问的时候被告知不要抱希望，我们也就放弃了，本来也就是随便问问。没想到过了几周校长给我们打电话让我们去面试。于是我们开始利用面试前的三天时间紧张的准备了小贝的简历，参考（或者说抄袭）了坛内名人旋版和西皮二黄的面试贴，幸得女儿平时的涂鸦我还收集了不少，七拼八凑后简历竟然还做得有点摸样，我一个朋友还让我发一份给她，明年她女儿入学或许还能参考参考呢。太沾沾自喜了哈，其实跟旋版的那些是没法比的。

校长很和蔼，先给我介绍一下学前几个步骤，然后说我们很幸运，学校5年没招非local学生了。接下来她想开始问我们些问题，那当然没问题，咱早就准备好了，就等着你问呢，没想到问的问题都不是我们准备的，完全超出了我们的想象，而且问题很多，有要孩子回答的，有要家长回答的，很多细节的东西，校长还认真地一一记下我们的答案。我能记得的大概有：是否full time出生，是否喂母乳，几个月走路，什么时候说话，在家说什么语言，上几天childcare，在哪上，会不会哭，会不会跟小朋友们一起玩，是不是喜欢玩水，玩户外活动的时候是很大胆，还是很小心，还是根本不喜欢，能不能同时按次序做事情，能做两件还是三件，知道colouring在线内吗？回答这个问题的时候我乘机把小贝的简历给了她，因为里面有小贝的“作品”啊，都是colouring在线内的啦。甚至还问了有没有disable或者其它的疾病，有没有什么需要老师或者学校特别知道的。接着校长开始考小贝了，先让她数数，这个刚训练过的，结果当然像小贝自己说的，中间不停顿的，像个小和尚念经一样地，很容易的就数到100了，然后又她认数字，这个没有准备，小贝在校长的提示下基本能认出20以内的两位数。让小贝写她自己的名字，英文名字虽然有9个字母，但是每周画画学校都练两边的，倒还容易。再要写出1-10数字，这些没训练过，只在几个月前教过一两次，于是小贝把3给写反了过来，写到4是还卡了壳，可能她有点晕，学校教写4都是L加上一竖，我教的是正二八经的4，像帆船。后面写得挺顺利的，到了9又有点忘记了，10写得倒是挺快，只是写成了“01”。又让小贝画了妈妈，真是没白学几个月画画，三笔两笔就勾出了。然后又问了小贝很多问题，每个问题都在a lot, a little bit，none里选答案。看电视、用电脑、play outside、听故事、painting、drawing等等好多东西，小贝都不客气的选了a lot，然后还问小贝还有什么别的爱好是她没有提到，但是小贝特别喜欢的。小贝傻乎乎的不知道怎么回答，于是校长又提醒她说，没有提到play doh…...最后校长给她拍了张照片存档，还给了她stamp和sticker，给sticker的时候，又考了小贝一把，问她把sticker贴在手上，洗手的时候会怎么样？小贝闷不吱声，校长提示说，可能会wet，小贝终于大胆的说fall down。最后校长问我们有没有什么问题，我就问问小贝会不会是班里年龄最大的孩子，这的确是我比较关心的问题。然后又问了如何填非local申请表，可不可以下周一交过来。校长很仔细地跟我们解释为什么要特别填那个表，不过我没有完全听明白，大概意思好像是要照顾需要照顾的对象。譬如说如果有熟悉的朋友、邻居、亲戚的孩子在这个学校的；离学校比较近的；需要上学前放学后照顾的。

跟校长告别的时候，小贝没有忘记自己的承诺，大声的跟校长说Thank you and Goodbye。出来一看时间，我们已经在里面1个多小时了。

晚上回家跟小贝爸交换意见，小贝爸说小贝回答问题声音太小了，还抓耳弄腮的弄出好多鬼脸，我也是这么觉得的，某一瞬间甚至觉得这样又点丢父母的脸。不过俺现在是爱学习的妈妈，知道这样做并不是她的错，平时并没有机会给她练习，想让她表现得多落落大方，尽善尽美肯定是不可能的，况且她答应我做的事情都已经做到了。我给她爸爸讲了另一个让我很感动的场景。从office出来在学校门口，她又跟F吵架了，眼看着又要哭了，我说，千万别哭，被校长看见了可不好，public school可能不喜欢哭鼻子的孩子，小贝硬是努力地把眼泪给逼了回去。所以我跟小贝爸说，我对小贝的这次表现100%的满意。

转眼就到周一交报名表时间了，我们还是没有完成表格，因为想来想去，我们都不是受照顾的对象，也不能不填啊，即使是校长愿意给我们一个名额，她也要有合适的理由啊。想啊想，周一一大早起床，现场发挥，终于编出了几个理由，完成了报名表。

根据旋版帖子中的建议，面试后一两天应该寄张感谢卡，于是又在周三寄出平生第一张thank you card。

我想明年开学把女儿转学去JASPER ROAD小学的YEAR 2,  听说这小学以前不错，现在怎么样啊？进OC和精英的多不多啊？每年大概有几个人能考上？

原来想转MATTEW PEARCE的，但差一条街，MATTEW PEARCE死活不收，别人说JASPER ROAD也不错，就是考OC和精英时，学校给打分比较严格，相对其他学校会分数低点，比较吃亏。
另外，还想请教，听说JASPER ROAD从YEAR 2开始就分快，慢班了（考试是根据一年级的成绩的）， 我女儿明年开学就读2年纪了，会不会被分到慢班啊？还是说要到明年开学整个2年级才考试分班？

都是中国和印度小孩，不考上OC也考试BKHH啊

我女儿现在所在的小学95%都是白人，5%的移民，但今年考上OC和SELECTIVE的才各一人，还都是普通的SELETIVE, 没有考上JR和BKH的，所以才想转学去JASPER ROAD的，印度人和华人多的学校才成绩好啊，没办法啊， 但就怕JASPER ROAD也升学率不高，那我就白费力气办转学了

我现在住CROPLEY DRIVE, 可以在JASPER ROAD 读书， 但离MATTEW PEARCE一条街之差，当时女儿报KINDERGARTEN之时就是怕JASPER ROAD有变电站和移民多，所以放弃没报，现在两年过去了，打听了很多，觉得华人多，印度人多才学习成绩好，再说回来JAMES RUSE旁边还那么大一个电站呢，没准多电电更聪明，呵呵

周围有好几个朋友都要送这个学校的。据说还可以。

刚听朋友的朋友说, 她的孩子就是JASPER ROAD小学的,今年有6位同学考上OC班了, (3个考上MATTHEW PEARCE的OC + 3个考上DURAL的OC), 大伙说说这个比率算好的吗? 听说carlingford MURRY FARM有20个考上oc

我邻居说她儿子从小都是在John Purchase 念大，校风很好，，孩子上大学考到全额奖学金。。。不过每次路过看见总觉得不像学校，那种demountable感觉很没有学校的氛围哦，可能是澳洲特色吧。。。

人数越来越多， 原来高年级都只有一两个班， 这两三年Kindy都招到了三四个班， 但大有一批家长等着五年级转私校呢。
学习方面普通，以舞蹈和band在附近受推崇，尤其是舞蹈老师开办的Studio，还挺专业的， 每年都有演出， band也有不同层次的三组。

Local property redevelopment has led to an increased density of population and a corresponding increase in student population. Community and school expectations are high.

不好.
对咱们亚裔移民不太合适.
读了半年就赶紧给转了.

可能意指孩子在那里遭到了种族歧视, 是这样吗? 这有什么不好说的, 我们在这里也经常讨论的. 我挺吃惊的, 因为以前听到的其他华人对这个学校的反映都说不错.

croydon小学很不错。旁边的burwood girls high, 和PLC都是好学校。
因为burwood girls 和PLC 都是女校，所以如果家里有个男孩就不要考虑那个区了。croydon小学的特点华人孩子基本都是女孩，男孩很少。
