Yes, figures crossed.  You meanby end of next week ( 6 January) , we will get to know the result? That's what I thought as informed i n the interview letter, but the principal on that day said all parents would be informed of the result by end of March. I doubted why it would take so long....
Can u confirm?

ummm.... unfortunately, tsl is one of the few dss which refuse to have such policy for the P1 application....
unlike st paul or diocesan, there is no place to fill in the application if your child already has brother or sister studying at school.
they emphasize the fairness which is good....

Hi, thank you for your reply.
but now that your elder son got admitted to TSL, does it make things easier for your younger one, i mean he may have additional " marks" in this regard.

it's was a bit messy for him as well, as he doesn't know a lot of word in chinese... so he was a bit shy as well.

the teacher asked him to pick up an apply, a banana... actually she ask some very simple question to see his reaction. most of time we are making translation beside him... because he did know many thing in real life, however, not enough word to express.
yes, i do think he has got a bit luck on the P1 interview as well!!!
knowing that tsl has 3000 applicants this year... for only 175 places....
heard that it will be even more when the time for our second son apply for P1.....

You are fortunate that you sons were not born in 2007 or 2008 becuase many kids were born in these two years, making the competition really keen to get into a good nursery/kinder.  

Can you reacall ...

Do u mean that we have an individual interview ?

Well, besides observing him in a group or from distance, a techer also came next to my son and asked him questions, like where is your mami? What is this ( referred to the toy he was playing etc...).  Since my son shut his mouth and turned his face ( Sigh!!!) I explained to the teachers why he was behaving like this and hope she would show pity to him....

Can you reacall how were your sons doing at the Tivoli nuresry interview? My son was not doing very well as he got a ulcer on his upper lip and it hurt and affect his performance. He was moody and sullen during the whole process, really disappointed. Though I explained the situation to the teacher who interviewed him, but I don't hold much hope for him la...

Anyway, Good to hear that your elder did so well at the P1 interview and got admitted to a good primary school which is also my preference.

Tivoli international class is so nice but won't consider small B's application

flostangraphy

hi mianyang,
it was a real battle during the P1 application period!!! fortunately it's done. and our son get an offer from Po Leung Kuk Camoes Tan Siu Lin Primary School. our first choice, so we are really happy about that!!
our second son will join the P1 battle in 2 years.... another stress period may come.
i think our sons enjoy going to tivoli and willing go to school with interest did help him a bit expressing himself during the interviews.
i think even more in the international stream as there were only 8 pupils/class.
