monkey05 do you work at preschool?
i want to reflect that so far i haven't see anybody get accepted here
if preschool only have so so limited space in K1, why still cheating HKD 30 out of the parent? why not just say they don't admit K1 student?
like KV or St Cat, not easy to get in, but you still see good mix of people get accepted or waiting list here
but preschool so far nobody get accepted...

cheating? I heard this when ppl talked about KM.. as KM has around 30% vacancy for outsider (around 50 kids will be accepted) but over 1000 application recieved.. some parents said the same thing.
honestly, it's a fair game, and it's not some big money. and most importantly, parent need to do some research before applying a school. So, you should know hkps's policy and it has pn/pg class. If you still willing to pay that $30, why saying this kind of words afterwards? the school itself doesnt know how many kids will leave the school exactly! then how can it offer you a place?! well.. if you can wait, I am sure that during Jun-Aug, many waiting list candidates will receive calls.
well.. my boy is on waiting-list too.. he got all the am offer from the most competitive KGs, and hkps ascot is the only one gave him a waiting-list..
so.. calm down!
sometimes it is not about money, but the feeling of being cheated as actually they have not much space, but they will let you apply
if only they only have 20 free space, and still let so many people download form and apply , i would strongly feel that they are very commercialized school.. i heard they over 1000 ppl applied, so they make HKD 30x 10000 = HKD 30K already ...
i applied for kln prescchool too, another HKD 30 gone, but after went to Ascot Pre school interview, i felt the school not nice, situated in a car park, smell like hosptial, and pretty small, so i don't even go to kln tong preschool interview
I would like to say sth.....I would also share my experience here.
My daughter is studying K1 in HKPS now. She studied PN in the other KG, not HKPS....
We applied HKPS - K1 last yr and we are in waiting list too. My gal is a small girl (0612) so we are not surprised to receive reject or waiting list letter.
We like HKPS after the interview so we wrote letter to principle in order to ask for a offer. Finally, we can get an offer in late AUG last yr......
So, if you are in waiting list, you still have chance to get an offer. They are really keeping your record.
From my point of view, it's a fair game. If you are in waiting list, you can still have chance to get offer. However, if you dont apply or NOT pay $30, you will not have that chance....
I cannot see any cheating...that's the rule of the game.
preschoo very smart
first they make money from a lot of HKD 30 from parent
but also they create noise here, now everybody think it is difficult to get into their school which means their school is good /famous
the fact it, nobody can get in there...
i pay HKD 30 based on the believe that they have space to admit people....a reasonable amount.. like ST CAT or KV.. you will see good mix of acceptance and rejection or waiting here.... but it turn out that preschool only have very little or not even 1 space....
when i pay HKD 30 to buy something, it must based on the fact they have stock so i buy
but now they don't have stock and still give us the impression they have , then i feel cheated
i applied over 15 schools, but only preschool can give me the cheating feeling

it is Another "sour grapes" example.
As you said, HKPS is not your 1st or even 2nd choice, but you still pay that $30 for the game. That means you are willing to be cheated even you do not care to be accepted or not. You made noise here because of $30 = no return. They do not accept your kid in the 1st round which made you angry. If you are the one out of the 20 successful candiate, do you have any word to say?
Somehow, hkps is lucky, not accept this kind of stubborn parent.
What a pity! a small kid has to attend more than 15 interviews.
