I don't know of a Chinese School near Shaw Blvd., what level is you kid? If you are looking for a playschool that caters to 2 to 3 year old I could recommend, but if you are looking for a big school for education proper I recommend Saint Jude Catholic School in Manila, only 15 minutes drive from Shaw Blvd if no traffic. I'm a Mandaluyong City resident but send my child there instead of ICA-Xavier.

There is school bus service that could fetch your child to and from the school. The only disadvantage of this is your child will be the first one to be picked up and last to be dropped off. I did use the school's bus service but only for 2 months, my son complained about the time he got home around 6pm, so I opted to fetch him to and from the school. It's not that far only problem if traffic, but there are lot's of alternative routes.

Just an additional consideration I made why I let my child study at Saint Jude Catholic School:
1. The school is known for their discipline (study wise), although their standard is not the same when I was still a student there. (Batch 90).
2. Their Chinese lesson is way better than what Xavier - Ica could offer, no offense to the said school but my cousin who studied there could not compose a straight Chinese composition whereas in Saint Jude we are trained to make compositions as early as Grade 1 to HS IV.
3. They offer equal attention to both Chinese and English subjects.
4. One thing I noticed from Xavier students is they look highly at themselves to the point they would look at you differently when you study at other schools, (correct me if I'm wrong here)
*TS it really depends on what you really want for your child, just make a good decision coz after all the future of our child will depend on this.

January 4th, 2011 09:22 AM #8Sorry, but St. Jude studes are terrible English speakers, are Nerdy, and Baduy.
And Xavier dudes are secure enough NOT to look at others differently. Man For Others is the Ethos that they have. They are confident enough to mingle with the best people out there.
Xavier is the school of Choice these days for a very good reason. Inspite of its high tuition, the waitlist remains long.Last edited by marg; January 4th, 2011 at 09:32 AM.

I admit Judenites don't speak fluent English as Xaverians do, but given the right forum they can speak English and could express themselves properly. The Nerdy and Baduy stuff you said were typical trademarks of a Judenite from way back, but we let our achievements speak for themselves.
I don't have a problem with Xaverians expressing their confidence in public but sometimes the way they conduct themselves gives you somehow an idea on how the school trains their students. "What you sow is what you reap." After all it pays to eat humble pie once in a while. Peace.
The TS is looking out for a good Chinese School by that I assume he/she wanted a good Chinese education for his/her child. Xavier - ICA, Jubilee and Phil. Chen Kuang are no doubt good schools, the only thing is: Are the Chinese curriculum they offer "good quality" in return for our hard earned money? - That's all.Last edited by ans_lim168; January 4th, 2011 at 11:27 AM.
