Anfield International Kindergarten

LittlePigmom

Why you change to Anfield suddenly and don't continue to finish K2 in the previous kindergarten.  So many change may makes your daugther frustrated.  Hope that ESF can accept your application.

sks, Little Pigmom,

My younger daughter attended K1 & K2 class at Tsung Tsin Primary & Kindergarten's International Section.  I know I apply ESF Primary late.  Anyway, I will try to submit the applic ...

My younger doesn't speak Chinese.  This is the main problem to make her feel lonely and boring at the former kindergarten.  Even though she was in International section, her classmates usually spoke Cantonese during rest time.  She had expressed that she wanted her classmates could speak fluently English few times before.  But I hoped she could build up both English and Chinese well like her elder sister who is attending same school at Junior section now.  After interviewed Anfiled, she likes this school much.  I have no objection for her request.

Valerie,
If your younger daughter used to speak English, it should not be a problem for her for the ESF interview.However, the catchment zone of Beacon Hill is big too.

On the other hand, you need to accept the education system of IS, it is different from local. You may need to balance between local & IS as your two daughters are studying at two education system.

Hi Moms,

Just want to ask if anybody knows the chance to enrol in the Clearwater Bay School from Anfield? Because I think most of the kids from Abacus would go to the Clearwater Bay School, so kids from other kinder might be more difficult to have a successful application.

sks,
Thanks for your advice.  I will apply another IS schools too.  The worse case is to attend K3 at Anfield and re-apply ESF and local primary schools' international section next year.   

By the way, my girl was very happy and excited for the first day school.  She told me she met some new classmates and sang a new song which she learnt yesterday.  Hope she would enjoy school life.

You seem to have a good change for your daugther as she can meet friends who can talk with her and share with her.  It's very nice.  All family members communicate in English at home so she cannot speak Cantonese.  
Although she can study in international school, better to teach her Chinese at the same time.

Fattymom,
My target school is KJS (it's my catchment zone). It seems many Anfield child go KJS so I think the chance is high.

Yes, the catchment zone for SJS is really big. But don't worry, I think t ...
