Did they send any confirmation in writing?  Or just phone call?  My son is on no. 61 and they just have 60 seats. They will also give priority to siblings and the ones who transferred from local session. Do you think that I have good chance?

Thanks

There is no interview for K1 (KCIS). This is on a first come first served basis.  According to last year's experience, I received phone call from school office in late Jan and paid the registration de ...

elmolly,


我認為視乎你讀哪一類local school.如果是很傳統那一類,可能起初會"追"得比較辛苦.否則,應該問題不大,因為KCIS是比較注重中文的國際學校,e.g.每天都有普通話課,每星期會寫一版中文生字.

補充一點,我知道有蘇浙國際的小朋友讀完K1後,轉往新加坡國際學校就讀,所以我估程度應該都不錯.:D :D :D

Haileychn,

The admin. staff called me first to confirm if I would take the seat & which session I preferred (am or pm). Then I received a confirmation letter a few days later and was asked to pay the deposit within a week.

As I recalled, my daughter was waitlisted No. 80 as told by the staff but still she got a seat without having priority. Except I did tell the staff at the very beginning that I had also applied "main stream" section for my daughter.:D :D :D

Thanks, 琬晴B. I hope that my son can get into KCIS.

Thanks for the info.

BTW, why did you choose both KCS and KCIS? Is it too tired for the kid? Do most of the parents do this?

Thanks

Haileychn,

The reasons I chose both sections:
1. I have two children and I hope both can attend whole-day school.
2. I believe she can gain a balance mix of Chinese and English from that.

Regarding your concern, the children attending both sections can take a nap (for K.1) and have dinner at school in the time between. I admit this kind of schooling may not be suitable for all children. But, to my daughter, she fitted in very well and is enjoying making so many friends.

I know a couple of parents who send their children to both sections.

琬晴B:D :D :D

Many thanks!

Hi there,

My girl is studying at KCS N1 at the moment.  She accepted by KCIS K1 next year and I am waiting the result of KCS (local section) result.  If KCS also accept my girl, she will attend both KCS and KCIS.  Hope that all of our child can enjoy the school life.

Dear moms, is there any one got the offer from KCIS for the K1 class in 09/10?
After received their acknowledgement last August, I haven't heard from them any more.
Pls help.

I received the phone from school office at late November and registered on mid December already.

I have asked the staff of KCIS of the students turnover rate.  She told me the highest turnover is students finishing 2 years kindergarten in KCIS before the KCIS primary school.  It is likely that some students were going to the K3 of local kinder.

Dear rollingcat & CreamBlue,
Can u tell me what's your children's no?  I still receive no letter from the school, and start to getting a bit nervous.  Even I called the school, they just told me that everything is still in progress so what i need to do is continue to wait...sigh

Does anyone know if KCIS accepts children with problem on learning difficulty?  

My daughter is studying P.3 in local school, and she has been studying both Mahts & Science in English; there should be no probelm for daily communications.  Unfortunately, her academic result is not good, or I can say bad at local school, a lot of stress from examinations.....  

I hesistate now if I should try to apply Grade 4 at KCIS in Sep, although I don't know the possibility; or I should wait 3 more years for application S1?  Is it difficult to apply in case my daugher's academic result is not good?

Many thanks for your sharings!
