温哥华有哪些幼儿园?
新移民在加拿大BC省生活,孩子上学是个大问题,BC省的幼儿园是什么样的,哪些幼儿园比较好?能否学中文?这些都是新移民家庭十分关心的问题,下面就和大家分享一下加拿大BC省温哥华地区幼儿园的相关资讯:
加拿大与国内的教育体制不太一样,一般来说,在加拿大的大学下面,并没有附设的高中,同样,在高中底下,也不会有初中和小学,所以,小学和初中合并在一起来说。在加拿大,上学是根据你居住的地址来划分学校的,也就是说,你住在那个区域,就可以上这个区域内的学校,如果你想去好的学校,就得去这个学校的区域买房,这是要提前想好的。如果你还没有确定要定居在加拿大的哪里,可以选择先去大城市居住,一般在大城市的华人区都有私立的中文学校,孩子想学中文就方便很多,也更容易适应,等到有一定的适应性之后,再考虑其他的事情。在加拿大,公立学校的教育是不需要交费的,这是政府保障的福利,而且老师待遇高,素质相当不错。这里说说在加拿大上幼儿园的情况吧。
幼儿园,在加拿大一般叫做day care,在加拿大,女性的就业率是相当高的,有很多家庭是双职工,根本没有时间带孩子,所以,国家为了平衡就业与社会福利,特地有政府福利支持的day care。加拿大的人特别注重环保与安全,这体现在child care上面,你敢想吗?连地板都是软木做的!就是为了防止孩子在上面打闹的时候不小心摔伤,整个care中心看起来都是软软的,没有尖锐的东西和角,都是圆滑的。在每个班级里,有2-3个老师带10个左右的孩子,老师与学生比例相当高,都是经过严格培训和选择的幼教。在幼儿园里,孩子们可以自由选择喜欢的项目来玩耍,都是根据孩子的爱好来定的,比如有的孩子喜欢画图,有的喜欢搭积木,有的喜欢玩玩具,有的喜欢看书,就分成几个区域,老师分别给各个区域的孩子以帮助和看护,不会强迫孩子做他们不爱做的事情。对于大一点的孩子,还会教一些基本的算术和语言。每天的午餐是根据营养分配来制定的,一般提供肉类水果蔬菜和饮料或鲜果汁,完全不用自己给孩子带饭,十分方便。幼儿园一般是上午9点开门,下午4点关门,双职工家庭根本不用担心这个时间不够,政府充分考虑了人们生活的需要与要求,在温哥华的任何一个地方,都是随处可见day care和幼儿园的,只要有需要的地方,政府就会提供。一般在温哥华市中心,这样的机构是比较集中的,为了节省空间,每个幼儿园都不太大,顶多就10来个孩子。一般来说,双职工家庭享受的政府补贴较多,所以自己交的费用是110加币一个月,而单亲家庭是180每月,无业家庭是160每月,虽然不多,但也不是免费的。
加拿大幼儿园的教育方式与国内有较大的区别,他们更注重保护孩子的心灵与个性,而不是强行的进行“填鸭式”教育,在加拿大,你几乎见不到孩子们面无表情,你甚至也见不到成年人愁眉苦脸的,因为他们都快乐的生活在加拿大这片美丽的土地上。
加拿大的幼儿园:
Canada has its own national education system, as to Chinese, there are some differences. First of all, there are many kinds of schools in Canada , public school, public school and so on. Generally, the system is not too different from the private school, but the private school will be higher tuition is generally charged, but the quality than public school, and public school in Canada is free. Generally in the neighborhood of many schools to children to attend school, the distance is not very far. I think there's a big difference between the two, is because the Canadian school is very much stressed to play with and the children's study, for the child to have a good communication, no Chinese education, do not have a heavy burden, there is a lot of freedom, I think it is good for children to grow up
In the beginning, because I have two children, I could only find a school close home, after school to go up to the Chinese school to learn Chinese. If you have to do business, the choice is not much. But for many parents with many problems and children, because they want their children to get a good education. In fact, the study of public schools in the city is no problem, because the system they have excellent teachers in the suburbs for further teaching. If not, you can apply for the education department to arrange to study in the city of schools. Because of the two in Chinese School is difficult for my children, so I apply for the Vancouver West Side, such as Point Grey and so, the study of Chinese. Children were admitted to
