Yes, for sure.

All are welcome, just have to pay at the door.

They are raising money for the school refurbishment projects.

160選120，機會有75%確實很高。恭喜+羨慕！

不知道有沒有reserved list的parents參加QBS info session呢？如果有，160candidates 應該有包含reserved list.

要收曬reserved list我們waitlist才有機會咯。

希望幸運的家長們會最終收到好幾個offer，最後會放一點位置出來吧。

請問2pmshow

160interviewee 包括confirm interview與reserved list interview嗎？

唔太肯定，但佢有叫我地舉手，有少部分kinder/siblings /alumni ,反而大部分係其他人,估當中有NR及random no. 好,不過Vice President 已經講緊幾時開學前info day, 番學前要留意乜,反而好小interview 嘅內容,攪到好緊張,好大機會收咁

Congrat to you all who will have an interview in Jan...  My son is only on waitlist to QBS.

But QBS shall visit our kinder (Kornhill) In Dec, site observing candidates.  Hopefully my son can somehow catch their eyeballs and give them a bit good impression so that the can remember us in case there will be vacancies later...

if we received foll interview invitation, does it mean our kid will secure a place once passing the interview ? or there still be chance we will be placed in "reserved list" after interview ?

" Interviews are being conducted throughout January to early February 2017, and we will inform you of the interview result by letter/email in the third week of February.  If your child is successful, the letter you receive will request a deposit* payment and a non-refundable capital levy payment, both of which will be required by XXX February 2017 to secure the place."

I think for this year, non-ESF kinder with no other priority will have no chance to get into SJS, BHS and KJS.
Also the strange thing this year is that it seems from the samples I have (ie other kids from TY kinder), it seems those applying BHS has largest percentage of getting a reserved seat interview, quite the opposite of previous years.

That is, this year, BHS most difficult to get in, then KJS then SJS, the exact reverse of usual trend!

In fact, some kids in wks Esf , their zone area belong to beacon hill or kjs. I understand that 8 classes vs 6 classes may make some difference but many unknown variables. I just want to clarify if it is the fact that even for Esf kinder kids do not secure an interview chance ( on wait list and no chance for interview ) , kids in other local kinders with no higher priority shouldn't have no chance, right ?

This is because last year WKS ESF K2 had 8 classes, but this year K2 has only 6 classes, so less competitive than last year.  For next year K2, will be another tough year.
