Don't be sad....At least, I personally know 3 mums whose kids were born in late Dec cannot enroll KCS PN previously but sucessfully admitted to KCS K1 as a "small boy" last year and this year. But one of them repeat K1 this year as that "small boy's" though smart but motor skill cannot keep up with K2 standard, so, his parents choosed to repeat K1 to be a "Big Boy" in K1.
n班的學額,同k1是一樣 - Are you sure? Based on my knowledge, 2 years ago, there are only 5-6 PN classes, but 11 K1 classes. Maybe I am not updated enough now. Besides, some PN students may go to some more famous KG, like SKH, St Paul Convent. Besides, some KCS PN students will transfer to KCIS (the internation KG of KCS). So, not all KCS PN students will go straight to KCS KG.
Thus, if you like KCS, remember to apply next year. Good luck!!!

Wish to share some thought of mine here. My boy is a small boy ie under 2 years old when the school started in Sept. Of course, they will not entertain me and will not accpet my application. I wrote a letter to office immediately indicating my intention to get into the school when my boy became two. And luckily he was offered a place when he reached two. So if you really wish your child to get a place when he comes to 2, write to the school now and then knocking the door of the school when he is 2, maybe lucky enough, there might be a place for him
But to be a small kid in the class is not easy. Think of the fact that when you come for P1 interview, you are competing with some children who is 10 or even 1 year older than your kid - you will feel that you kid is not mature enough. Mature is not sth that you can train but it comes with experience.
To be a big kid is not sth bad, it equip the child better when it comes to P1 interview.

may I know "SKH" represent which KG pls? tks!
btw, are N1 students hv greater chances of being accepted to K1?? I've heard some ppl said that it also depends on their performance during K1 interview, i.e. no advantage over outsiders?? quite worried...........
Hi, Pingu_k, I remember you, so, which PN you finally choosed for your kid?
SKH = 聖公會 KG, it is a very famous KG on HK Island.
Though the KCS PN students have to sit for a KCS K1 interview too.....I personally think they will have more advantage than the outsiders. If I were the KCS KG teachers, I would prefer to intake more KCS PN students as they have been trained for 1 year under KCS teaching model and language already..........so, must be easier to teach. My personal opionion only, not representing the school : )
I agree with GIPW's saying, even half year can make a great difference among kid's ability.

Pingu_k, welcome to join the KCS big family....... give yourself one year to observe to see if you like this KG.
Don't wear high heel shoe to walk up the slope.....you will feel better when the weather is cooler.
