Hi Littlecat222,

Nice to meet you, our kids may become classmates this coming Aug.  By the way, you got AM or PM offer?

My husband and I are still struggling whether we should let our daughter to attend ESF.  Our only concern is the ESF P.1 admission as we are probably on Cat 2 so the risk is high.

Did you get any other offers from other kindies?

Mine is PM offer.  Have you all considered joining the “Clever Cubs” at WKS that’s held by ESF Language before starting of school year?  I want to let my daughter to adapt herself to the new environment gradually.  So, I’d plan to join that program few months later.

My daughter also got PM offer. How can my daughter register the course "Clever Cubs”? Thank you!

You may make online registration at http://www.esf.org.hk/esf_language/schedule/programme4.asp
ESF Language is now accepting application for April-July programmes.
I am likely to join “Clever Cubs” that starts in July.
I think it’s a good chance to let my daughter gets to know the environment in advance.

BTW, will your daughter take the school bus to school?

Hi ramen , Nice meeting you here.
My son got an offer for am session and I am v likely to take it.
Actually I haven’t officially applied any other kinder, but all the playgroups that he attended do offer him to join their K1. actually I like also Leapfrog (in Sai Kung) very much.
Have u seen the recent posts of other parents about higher admission rate to ESF P.1 from WKS kinder? Does it help to make up your mind?

Hi Arcana,

Thanks! We live in Ma on Shan, so she doesn't take the school bus. But I am worried that my daughter needs to take a nap in the afternoon, she may feel sleepy at school

My daughter also takes a long nap every day.
I’ll arrange some activities at PM in August.
Hope that she can tune up her body clock gradually.  Short nap may be arranged after school and before dinner.

thanks a lot.  do u know if there will be similar courses in July/August so that I can better prepare my son before the commencement of the academic year (K1)?  I just wonder if starting the course in April-July will be too early when he is attending a pre-nursery school on weekdays.  

thanks again.

Hi, parents!  

My son is studying ESF (WKS) K1 class now. I have do a few visits there and think the teachers and the environment are excellent. There are books and toys everywhere, as the school suggests the students to play and explore themselves. And the teachers are willing to give them help and instruction.
For his oral English, it really improves a lot. But I have given him some after-school classes that are conducted in English. And I buy him a lot DVDs that can help him to express his wants  in "good" English. Now he can chat casually with the westerners and understand what they speak to him.
