乜灣仔果間算N? 算kinder 咩？佢只係offer playgroup.
點入Esf kinder , 準時報名，有運氣抽籤，有play visit 又聽得明英文

去你想報k個間報play group 等小朋友 熟習環境, 到時interview起碼小朋友不害怕新環境。
另外N班要有外藉老師，見到外國人不害怕
到時Interview不會對小朋友好多要求，衹係老師會同小朋友玩下，老師會留意小朋友的英語聆聽，如可以英語簡單對答更好。

Esf無 N班播。你參加嗰啲係佢哋对外开放嘅playgroup. 就算参加，㨂返喺嗰個你有意報考嘅校园上啦。起碼俾小孩習慣吓環境。除此之外，並無其他特別advantage

The best preparation you could do is to talk with your child in English only, starting from right now and maintain that at least until the Play Visit is done.
Bear in mind that during the Play Visit you're going to be speaking English only to your child, if the normal routine is to use Cantonese or a mix of Cantonese/English, then the child may sense something "abnormal" is happening on the day and may feel confused and behave in an unexpected way.

Agreed with above. English and Luck (on your random allocated number) are key.

also this will be their first year of through train system so should be more competitive

我女都係今年考入esf k1.
Agree 最緊要都係show 到小朋友聽得明英文，其餘其實係靠luck.
我一路以來都盡量同個女講英文，尤其係play visit 前幾個月。

My son got an K1 offer this year.
Since there's no pre-nursery class at ESF, we had been attending the ESF playgroup when he was 15 months old.
And as my helper (Indonesian) and my in laws speak Cantonese. I have been the only one talking in English with my son (I'm a working mom). So I had sent him to an English pre-nursery school (3 hours all in English).

Yes. Pre-nursery at weekdays and playgroup at ESF on weekends
作者: 3piggys 時間: 19-5-23 00:01
Attending playgroup at the Wanchai Centre will not increase the chance of K1 offer.
Agree with the above that under the new full-train scheme, the K1 competition could become more vigorous this September.
First of all, you have to be lucky enough to be offered a play visit. Some don’t even have the chance. Perhaps foreign passport holders may have an advantage but a certain percent of places are still offering to locals.
Prepare your child to communicate in English. Per my observation during the play visit, only a small amount of children speak native English. Some are fluent. The rest speak only simple phrases or even single words. Despite the level of verbal response, the child must demonstrate that he/she understands English and reply accordingly.
During the play visit, there are various activities in the room. Try to lead your child to the activities that he/she likes in order to demonstrate a good sense of communication and interaction.
The final stage (and this is pure luck) is that you have been assigned a good random number (high enough) to be offered a place.
Wish you good luck !

阿女年尾出世，本身想遲一年報入ESF k1(2021年）
可唔可以今年都報定先，攞下經驗
唔得的話 之後下年再報過名！
因為我見有家長話waiting list, 應該逐年逐年咁計🤔

esf 入學需要跟出生年份申請，冇得話自己想做大b就defer一年。2016年出生嘅小朋友就要今年申請k1，如果下年申請就會變k2申請。要k1入學先會直上Esf 小學，k2入應該唔guarantee。

灣仔間playgroup 説參加了就可guarantee ESF hillside interview, 朋友讀pg 告知的，本人未fact check
作者: Bella1121 時間: 19-8-23 17:15
My child got hillside K1 this year.
She speaks fluent English as this is almost the only language we speak with her since her birth. She attended hillside playgroup for a year before the play visit, which apparently helped a lot in terms of the child being familiar with that environment and could act like her normal self during the assessment.
From what I saw from the play visit, the teachers would talk to each of them independently and see how the kids respond. I guess as long as they have reasonable response to the teachers, ie. say yes/no, do simple things requested by teachers, they will be fine.
But then everything boils down to having a good random number, so that you would be able to get a place at the play visit.
Good luck.

就係因為比較平，如果50 萬可以有個機會，D人可能更加想試。其它學校/幼稚園都係幾十萬 debenture，但之後嘅學費就唔係 ESF 咁平嘛。

其實今年K1開始已一條龍，幼稚園直上的學生已霸佔超過7成學位，而我相信新一年小學的NR將會排在幼稚園生之後。視乎你揀邊間ESF同埋邊一區，港島嘅話都仲有機。

我估又未必，身邊好多本身支持本地教育嘅中産家長, 因為社會環境影響，紛紛跳船想入IS. 佢地本身又未有錢到可以投資移民，又或工作離不開香港。所以未來呢一兩年esf k1競爭可能會幾大。

Yes, this should be a new policy implemented this year, as ESF is worried that with increasing number of local applicants, it cannot maintain 70% foreign passport ratios across all ESF schools.

本帖最後由 貝珠 於 19-8-30 17:38 編輯
No.
1. Such statement has been on Esf website for long. I don’t think it is something new
2. I doubt if 70% 30% rule applies to Esf, as strict foreign passport rule only applies on new schools which got the land from the government for their premises. Such as fis in tko, Shrewsbury, ashk, Malvern, Stamford. For ESF with such a history, I don’t think the government will influence or take any action to them
3. I will suggest you to attend their admission talk and ask them explicitly
作者: 已刪除用戶 時間: 19-8-30 17:53
Thanks for everyone's helpful responses. I guess it doesn't matter that much as we will apply regardless. Just have to think about whether or not to buy this new debenture.
作者: 貝珠 時間: 19-8-30 18:31
In Esf, the nomination right is limited to small quota, every school has a limit. Previously, 150 quota for all schools all forms across with capping per school. In short, it is not wise decision to spend that money for kindergarten. It was not too oversubscribed for wks, Tsing Yi ,Tung Chung and cwb. Hillside I heard different story.

Oh I see, I just assumed that maybe this year there will be an oversubscription for kindergartens due to the new through train offer. I will probably wait and see what the kindergarten debenture quota is and decide. Like you said if the quota is limited then it would not be necessary.
作者: 已刪除用戶 時間: 19-8-30 19:49
ESF website has just announced the new Debenture quota is 150 across all kindergartens. And will automatically convert to Individual Nomination Rights for Year 1.
作者: 貝珠 時間: 19-8-30 19:54
150 for 5 kinders, 30 per school, which is quite a lot

Mind you that ESF has actually sent emails three times to current parents of ESF schools (Primary and through-train IB schools as far as I heard), reminding them that after implementation of "through-train education" this year, their younger siblings may not be guaranteed a place at ESF schools if they do not study at ESF kindergartens. They strongly suggest the parents to enrol their younger kids into an ESF kindergarten. And indeed these kids also enjoy priority at kindergarten admissions. So I guess for KGs other than TC and Abacus, the competition should be very keen.

Thanks for the info. I did expect the competition to be extremely tough this year. We decided to try our luck after all, may consider buying INR for year 1 if we don't manage to get into Kindy. Though who knows what will they change next haha. We just did the application today, so fingers crossed!
