Kingston interview

nys262

hi annievong,
請問妳是apply playgroup or n1呢? Thanks.

nys262

Just be informed, interview next week for the 1yr old class...好緊張!!!

nys262

Thanks Koeda!
Actually, I don't know much for this school. I visited this school once for picking up the application form, so impressive that kids can talk in English/Putonghua so fluent. Why cannot learn a lot there? Too simple?? I wish my girl could have happy school life; but as a mom, I still want that she can learn more.

nys262

Agreed with bbgrass; we have no relationship with the School, and my girl is our 1st kid as well.  I submitted the application when my girl was 3months old. I believe, our interview is really based on 1st-come-1st-serve.

bbgrass,
would you please let me know a bit more for the interview details? Many thanks.

nys262

OIC, my girl is (big girl) also.

BTW, interview is in English/Putonghua/Cantonese? Because my hubby is a CBC, he's so worry that if he cannot speak in English.

Koeda & bbgrass,

Thank you so much!
I'm looking forward to be Kingston parent.

nys262

請問每 級有幾多班呢？

nys262

Many thanks bbgrass!
I'm really looking forward to say hi to you when I bring my kid to school in the coming Aug....But the fact is, I still didn't attend the interview yet.... hahahahaha

nys262

hello1972,

In my case, I prefer Kingston because of:

1. lowest teacher/student ratio, teachers can really have enough time to observe & guide every single student.

2. we sure that will let our kid study in canada after grade 9/10, so international school is suitable for us.

nys262

Has interviewed, they said will let us have the result next week.... But, I still keep on checking the mailbox everyday...hahaha

nys262

收到offer了，雖然是下午班(上午班較方便我返工)，總算是收了，所以都非常開心！

唔知有否機會改上午班呢？其實上/下午班對升兩歲班又有否影響??

nys262

Thanks bbgrass!

I will go to school tomorrow for the payment, and will let them know my  preference.

nys262

Yes, I'm Kingston parent now....hahahaha!!

nys262

Yes, my case was almost the same!
The interviewer told me exactly the same as what bbgrass mentioned. But, I didn't request to change by that time, so I received pm offer after 4days. Then, I asked for any am vacancy when I went to school for enrollment & payment. They said yes....
But, my girl enrolled pm class finally, coz hubby & 6299 said am class is too early.

Ethanmami, don't worry! Offer will come very soon, and even which is still pm offer, try to ask again during enrollment.

nys262

Hi Ethanmami,

Yes, my girl enrolled in M/W/F pm class. I don't know they have school bus service for playgroup student(with 1 adult) or not?? But, I read some comments for the school bus service before, seems which is quite expensive.

Where are you living? If you're not living too far away, taking taxi might be more flexible woo!

nys262

Ethanmami, welcome to Kingston!

Doesn't matter la, pm class is not bad, our kids are still <2yr in Aug. If they can't sleep well, still can take a rest in the morning. But, did you leave the message to school that you would like to have am class in 2yr old class? I did so, and the staff said there is big big chance my girl can swap to am class next yr.

See you on Aug12!
