Interview Arrangements
All successfully registered children will have the opportunity to be interviewed. The school will announce the dates and times of the interviews via email by October 18th (Wednesday) or earlier, and the date and time of the interview will not be changed. If parents have not received a notification letter by October 19th (Thursday), please call the school to obtain the information to avoid missing the interview opportunity.
Non-Chinese speaking children can come to our interview with a Chinese speaking companion. If you need translation service, please contact our kindergarten in advance.
Admission Criteria
1. The applicant’s interview performance
2. Priority consideration will be given to applicants with siblings currently studying or graduated from our school and whose parents working full-time for our sponsoring body. (Satisfying the criteria of priority consideration does not guarantee admissions.)
3. If the applicants score the same marks, we will decide between the applicants by drawing lots.
Admission Results
We will inform parents of the admission results before 15th December 2023 by e-mail. As the number of school places is limited, parents of unsuccessful applicants may apply for a place on the waiting list by 5th January 2024. We will inform parents of the waiting list arrangement by email. To ensure smooth operation of the school, we apologise for not answering enquiries about interview results on the phone.
Centralised Registration Dates
Parents of successful applicants should complete the registration procedures from 4th to 6th January 2024 by submitting the admission letter, RC to our school and paying the registration fee (HKD 970). If the child concerned studies in our school, the registration fee paid will be refunded in September.
Withdrawal
Should parents decided to change school after registration, please notify us in writing and produce the receipt of the RC. We will return the RC but the registration fee will not be refunded. Upon obtaining the RC, we will no longer keep the school place for the child.
