Hi all,

Sept's tuition will be deducted today.  Anyone not joining in Sept should give up their seats before today.  Give St Cat one or two weeks to decide who to allocate the seats to and do the admin work.

Hi babybaby08,

Thanks for your information. I will be patient.

Dear other moms,

請問有無過往經驗可以分享呀?我想知其實每年有無waiting可以入到 St Cat 呢? 因另一間kinder 要我七月頭註冊同交錢。麻煩俾多d資料我參考一下。

babybaby08

I am sure some on the waiting list will be offered a spot.  I know one person who didn't pay for the $660 seat reservation fee and another person withdrew in May.

I just got a call from St. Cat this morning.  My daughter is able to transfer to the English Mandarin class (from the English Cantonese class).  I was so happy when I got the class because I want her to learn Mandarin.

Dear babybaby08,

Congratulations!似乎好快會到waiting list, 希望快D收到電話啦!

babybaby08

Dear Mumkuk,

Did you send any letters to St Cat expressing your interest to have your son/daughter study there?   I wrote three letters in total saying how much I want my daughter to switch to Mandarin English class.  Those letters actually work !!!

Good luck to you !!!

Hi babybaby08,

I have written 2 letters to the kinder. I received a reply for the first time, but there is no response for the second one. Did you receive replies from the school for the three letters? In my letters, I also tried my very best to show how eager we are to send our kid to the kinder.

babybaby08

Hi Mumkuk,

I only got a response for the first letter.  I sent the first letter shortly after they offered me a spot in the Cantonese English class (but I interviewed for the Mandarin English class).  I sent the second letter around the second week of May.  I sent the third letter end of June.

Hope you will get some good news this week.

Hi babybaby08,

My kid is accepted by 民生。But I want my kid to go to 宣小 or 九龍塘學校小學部。I am not sure the kindergarten will affect her chance of success in these two schools. If it doesn't matter, I think 民生 may be OK. Of course, St. Cat. is more famous.  What do you think?

The confirmation is send out by phone call instead of mail?

St Catherine said that they need to do the admin work, and the vacancy result would be released after mid July.

babybaby08

Dear Mumkuk,

民生 is a good school too.  It might just not as famous as St Cat and Kenville.  But you know what,  whether a school is good really depends on the teacher you end up getting.  

In getting into a good primary school, the kindergarten you come from only has little importance.  The primary school will also consider what your kid has done outside of kindergarten life.  My friend's son is going into K3 this Sept.  When he is in K1 and K2, he is learning art / painting, fung fu, piano, violin and swimming.  He always participates and wins (in some case) in competitions.  Good primary schools like kids that are all rounded.

Once again, good luck to you and let me know what happens at the end.  My daughter is in St Cat's afternoon class, so if you are offered a spot, it will most likely be the afternoon class.  Hope I will get to see you there.

Hi LAIKITMAN,

Thanks for your information. I hope all the waiting parents can get good news then after mid July.


Dear babybaby08,

Thanks for your comfort. I do hope to meet you soon in St. Cat in the coming September.
Yes, I also think training and activities outside school are very important, especially to some famous private school. So, no matter which school my kid is going to, I will let my kid join some interest classes.

waiting list! Don't worry.
