I just checked the monthly fee of school bus for this year tem, from my home to YMCA will be HK$850, a bit expensive!

If you haven't registered your kid's name to the driver company please do it asap.

The school secretary said that the max students in the class will be 20, not 16!

But they will provide 3 teachers in the class.

I knew that there will be two K1 classes in this September. One is Rainbow and One is Sunshine.

I like this school very much even though I have to pay expensive school fee.

my son will go to K1 in YMCA. During the party last week, his classroom asked us to speak more English at home.

YMCA is a very good kindergarten.
I personally think that it is better than ESF kindies.

It is just the application procedure at ESF has put other kindergarten in a less favourable position.
Do not forget that there is a new ESF kindergarten at WKS. There will basically be more people competing for places.
It is definitely going to have a huge impact to the applicants in Shatin-Saikung-Clear Water Bay area.
At this moment, there are SJS, CWBS and RC. And the application procedures are already hot. With one more ESF kindergarten, we are expecting even less favourable position for other kindergartens.
I know that RC does not have written policy to give priority to ESF kindergarten children. But I really think they would take up a lot of WKS students because they are the same organisation, and because of the location.

Of course, there are other IS that are also good. I think YMCA parents really have to file more applications.
So good luck to everyone.

Don't worry it is a very good and caring school. The teachers there will definately help you upbringing your kid's english standard. I am sure with very caring and nurturing parents like u guys, your child will find their way.

Most of the YMCA teachers are Indian, I "ding" it is not as good as other international kinder.

Sorry but you are wrong.... they got a very good mixture of teacher with different nation.

All teachers are extremely nice and kind to the kids, Head teacher Ms. Susan can remember all the kids name.

My two child study there, and I will recommend  this school since this school is truly international kindergarten!!!
