How about their pre-school program, i.e., headstart?  Will the kids get higher chance to get in if they attended headstart?

Put it this way: the kids will have low (or even no) chance to get in if they don't attend headstart!

Have anyone attended their interviews before? How was it like?

Not all mommies at Braeman Hill are full time moms, about 30% are working mommies although almost all of them are professionals with senior titles.

For the interview, you and your kid will be led into a room where your child will play with a teacher on one side of the room and the teacher will ask your child questions.  The pricipal and vice principal will be talking to the parents while observing the kid.  It is quite a short interview, about 20 minutes or so.

This is true, so if you are aiming for PN, then definitely go for Headstart.

So headstart is good or not in terms of content? i haven't deicded to apply for its PN or not at the moment, just the headstart programme as playgroup, is it good or not??

Head start program is rather useless. Teachers are arrogant, unfriendly. It just forms part of their interview process for kindy.

But heard format will change this year and move to ap lei chau.

個個都係朋友個朋友、朋友個老闆，舊同學，冇人有親身經驗，同日本個傳聞差不多

Be fair, this is a good school. Kids there are very happy with a lot of different field trips and activities. But of course, $$$$! If you really want to get in, started from their pg. I have few friends with their kids in that school, they love it. And even I have friend who studied there when she was young (acutally she was there when the school opened in the first year). And she graduated in good university in USA. Now very good status. Just different people needs different type of schools. Even you force to get in, you wont be happy because you cannot communicate with the parents. They mainly use english because even the seminar for parents is conducted in English.

Headstart 而家轉到鴨脷洲的新校舍Infant Toddler and Twos（ITT)，仲係Headstart之前加咗個First Step! First Step由一歲開始上，跟住先入Headstart.

我小朋友而家上緊First Step. 我係佢去年一出世就報名，而家上咗一個月多啲。個校舍設施係全港Playgroup最好的，有六個課室：Reading Room, Play room, Art Room, Music Room, Gym Room and Sensory Room. 全間地下都有heated floor. 每間課室有一至兩個老師，仲有物理治療師同職業治療師，超豪！

一個星期兩堂，啲BB玩得好開心，仲學到好多嘢：自己洗手，點名舉手，鞠躬，等等。好多同學都quit咗其他playgroup如gym, tutortime等，因為每一堂上六個classroom已經包含晒所有其他playgroup要學嘅嘢。

不過好多family都有司機，我見到有個仲誇張，司機、爺爺、嬤嬤、媽媽、2個工人、1個陪月。

如果岀世無報到ITT，都唔駛諗wait到啦。
