i have the same problem too ... my son (born in nov) will go to K1 this sept ... see see how he goes first ... but i have preparation to let him repeat in K1 ...
but agree w/ "pearjadema " -> 比d信心你個仔仔啦 ... hehee ...
My boy was born in Dec and he's now studying K1 in SC. He is smart but slow development in "small muscle". Straight promotion to K2 is never in our agenda. We prepared to let him to repeat K1 at the very beginning. So, in coming Sept, I will let my boy to repeat K1 in either HKPreschool or Kentville. My experience for applying for P1 for my elder girl let me realised that the chance of getting famous (not necessary good) school is far higher in a "big boy or girl" situation. Even if your kid is so smart and lucky that hebcan get into these famous schools, you have to consider whether he can "survive" in a class with big boys. I think you have to consider (1) the ability of your child and (2) whether you have high expectation on him on which primary school to be admitted. Given your preference to famous kindergarten, I guess your expectation on your boy is also quite high. If this is the case, I suggest you let him repeat K1. However, if you don't have very high expectation on the primary school to be admitted, then I think the ability of your boy is the determining factor.
You have to be careful if you intend repeating K1 in SC as SC seldom allows student repeating K1 except the student's performance is extremely poor.
