May I know if your daughter study in ESF Kindergarten now?
No tpoon, My daughter studies in Woodland now. Because I know that Woodland has a good relationship with ESF. ESF will send someone to Woodland school around January to have a non-official "interview" with those kids.
I guess it may help a bit for Woodland kids to get a interview place into ESF comparing other schools.
I guess studying in St. Cat does put your daughter in a very bad position - how can you show to ESF that she can't go to local school?
Her first language will not be considered by ESF at all.

I'm raised and borned in Australia, and English is my daughther's first language, however, she still did not offer an interview from Kowloon Junior College, she is now in St. Catherine K2....:(
My daughter also received interview letter from the Kennedy School yesterday.
But the interview day will be quiet late, it will be held on Feb 9. Any mums get such a late interview too?
On the letter, it even says after the interview, they will place my kid under waiting list. They also strongly recommend us to apply other int'l schools, just in case if we are rejected.

study in ESF Kinder only give you priority in each Cat. But they will still interview Cat 1 first..... and looks like competition in CWBS is very keen vs other ESF Primary School....
