好好彩我囡當日係9點20 in Kornhill  & 10點 in pods，又好好彩兩間都有offer。我打算讀完N班之後報local  ...

Kornhill係我屋企樓下, 我報左佢個playclass上左2個月, 我個人覺得老師冇想像中同小朋友咁多互動, 上playclass係做inclass observation唔洗interview...原先我諗一心讀kornhill因為近, 但係反而上完playclass有d失望, 反而pods老師比我感覺好好, pn bilingual/trilingual, 所以決定放棄kornhill am

我地有上PODS 星期六PG，覺得啲老師真係唔錯。英文普通話都係 native speaker，讀local stream 都係想進可攻 IS 退可守 local，開放日啲香港家長話佢地一般都係咁。話晒香港人應該要識廣東話。。。

仲有，我地朋友識得其中一個PODS 嘅老闆，老闆個仔都會明年讀 PODS PN，應該都對學校都有啲信心！

We are also deciding whether to send our son to Pods for PN in 2019.  We got offer for their international stream AM.  We haven't decided whether to send him to IS or local school for primary yet so want to leave open both options.  We are a predominantly English speaking family at home but want him to learn Cantonese and Mandarin.  Not sure if local stream will mean too little time for Mandarin.
Any advice?  How much is the school fees for local stream PN?

International stream is only English and Mandarin.  If you want Cantonese then it needs to be local stream.  My understanding is international stream has English and Mandarin home room teachers, while local stream is English and Cantonese home room teachers with Mandarin classes, so yes it will be less Mandarin for local stream.  Just bear in mind local school interviews will usually be in cantonese, while IS will be in English unless you are native Mandarin speakers (and even then only schools that have major focus on Chinese will conduct interviews in Mandarin).  So having less Mandarin isn't such a big issue for kindergarten.
I believe school fees are the same for both streams, but the details haven't been announced yet for 2019-20 school year.

Can't say for sure as we don't know anyone personally who has been to KCS.  General feedback online though is that KCS is good to get into their primary school, but difficult for KCS kindergarten grads to get into other better local schools.
Anyway we also got KCS PM offer, thinking of declining as most likely we'll go to PODS.  Unless if we get into Victoria then that will probably be our top choice.  We are leaning towards IS at the moment but still want the option to go for local school, as our child is still too young to see which is more suitable.
