Hi All Parents,
Our kids have applied for the 2019 Reception. We were asked to provide school report and filled in the assessment form. After that, we were asked to bring our kid to attend an interview. And after the interview, we received an email that they want to visit our kids' existing kindergarten to further observe them again. Is it a normal approach in Hong Kong schools? Because I am afraid this will affect the impression of our kids in their existing school. Also, there is no guarantee that they will have space after that. Thank you.

I know quite a few kids who applied to Kellet were observed at their existing kindergarten (most of them didn't have to go through interview). That's just the way Kellet 'select' their pupils. (So much of "no interview" as declared by them).

If some of them did not need to go through interview and school visit, why it is unfair that some of the pupils need to do both interview and school visit? It's odd! My kids are from real IS.

Hi All Parents,

even ESF go to non-ESF kindergarten to do observation of kids in their school.  


I think it is actually very good because the school would like to observe how the kid performs in a natural setting, how he interacts with his peer group in a non stressful environment.  The "interview", or more appropriately, the assessment session, it is very artificial that the kid's true character and potential may not reveal in it.

Just cooperate with the school if you're keen to go for it.


Good luck.
