I am currently in Taipei but will be moving to HK June/2005. My 21mo is currently in a wonderful Mandarin-only Montessori here half-days 5days/week. I am looking for a similar school in HK. Any recommendations? We have no idea where we will live yet, so are not limited by that.

TIA!
 
Hi,

There is no Mandarin montessori school in HK. However, my daughter goes to International Montessori School and it's bilingual Montessori program: English and Mandarin. There are 2 teachers in the class: 1 native English speaker and 1 native Mandarin speaker. I am extremely happy with the school. You can check out http://www.montessori.com.hk/

If you apply now, you'd probably won't get the morning class in September. You might get the afternoon class.

Let me know if you need more info.

Would appreciate if anyone know of a Mandarin Montessori playgroup on HK Island. A friend of mine has a 2 year old and she's not ready to send her child to a Montessori preschool yet. She works so a couple of hours on Sat and/or Sunday would be OK. Thanks a lot !
 
I just came across Little Dynamites's ad on another site and they do Montessori playgroup for upto 3yrs old either in English or Mandarin.
 
I just found out Woodland Montessori on Caine Road has a Saturday Mandarin class. Has anyone tried this before ? Thank you for your input.
 
I am a both a parent and a Montessori teacher doing my practical, and there are several Montessori learning centers that I know in Hong Kong.

CHILDREN'S OWN WORKSHOP (Causeway Bay - Hysan Road Above starbuck). But only English Montessori for the moment. They do have daily classes. Don't think they have a website.

INFINITY CHILDREN'S WORLD - (Prince Edward and Tsuen Wan). Founders are AMS certified. Mon-Sat daily classes. They also have weekly seminar on Montessori and Jelic. The center will soon offer Madarin Montessori classes.

BEST CONCEPT (Tsim Sha Tsui) - Run by Taiwanese Teachers. Mon-Fri daily classes. It's Bilingual - Mandarin and English. Think they are AMS certified. Parent feedbacks says that it's more like 70-80% English and 20-30% Mandarin. Again, it might not be the same for every class.

You might want to check them out for yourself. Good luck!

Hi run4fun,

Just FYI, there'll be a Mandarin playgroup trial session at Hilltots (Tai Hang Road) this coming Saturday, Sep 2, from 10-11:30am.

Hi Yanmama,

Thanks for informing me. A friend of mine is interested and I believe she has contacted Antione already.

Cheers.
