If I don't have the nomination rights, can I still apply for either RC or Db and bhs (applying 2)?  ...

Yes, u can apply RC or DC, no matter u hold NR or not. The NR is for level up the priority of  interview only.

From my understand, 2018-19 Y1 application is for child who was born in Jan-Dec 2013.

I think you may need to read through the whole Admission section on esf website which clearly explains the requirements, procedures and everything.

According to the RC admission Q&A FB page (Sep 3, 2017):

" RC ACCEPTS NOV/DEC 2012 BORN CHILDREN'S applications to Y1 (18-19) when parents make the inquiry with us."

hi, how about the chance at Quarry Bay School?

Chance for non-Esf kids for qbs is much higher than other catchment zone

Yes for RC , but for other Esf foundation schools , the application for 2018 year 1, is only for children born in 2013. For DC, not sure

Wondering if you guys know whether there is strict age range for Esf kindies too (for K1)? For year 2018, they only admit children born from Jan to dec 2015 as stated on their website. My son was born in dec 2015, just wondering if I may apply as super big B next year (for K1 in 2019 instead)?

I believe they are very strict on the age requirement but it doesn't hurt for you to call to ask again.

Also, if you worry about your kid too small, then you really don't need to. I don't know the reason why but at least in the esf kinder my kid attended and the esf primary school my kid is now attending,  there are lots of small kids born in the last 2-3 months of the year. My kid is born in June but from what i know, at least 2/3 (or may be even 3/4) of his classmates are younger than him.

Thanks for the reply! Very helpful - yes perhaps no harm to call them to find out. At young age, a few months' difference can mean a big gap ... so I prefer my son to be big b. Good to know esf do not just prefer big bs like  a lot of local kindies ......do u mind sharing which esf kindy ur chid went to before? Thanks again for ur sharing :)

I think the chance for RC nomination right holder is actually very high. At least everyone i know who bought NR got in.

For 2018 admission to year 1, I think the NR for all popular foundation schools (e.g. BHS, KJS, SJS) had long been sold out. The numbers available are so small that you do need to line up very early on the first day at the office. For others, you may still try your luck. If you buy NR, the catchment requirment is waived. But the school bus net work may then not cover your home.

Thank you so much for your info. So in which means I won't be able to purchase the NR for year 2018? Should have made up my mind way earlier

Submit your application to purchase NR anyway, some candidates who bought NR may fail the interview and thus free up some NR slots.
