WKS??  the new KG in MOS??  

Lake Silver is still a construction site... when would it finish??  I have been there a week ago, frankly speaking quite terrible place....  the surrounding is perfect, b ...

You don't have a lot of choices, just like those RC students (even more tough since Kinder has lesser children)

1. School Bus (it may take 1+ hour but do they serve so far to TKO like RC?)

2. Take Taxi and stay in school for 3 hours then take taxi back

3. Drive yourselves (only if you are not working), driving take approx 30-40 mins

4. Take MTR to Kowloon Tong then change train to WKS

5. Take MTR to say Kln Tong where they have school bus pick up

Hope it will help, good luck with ESF WKS Kinder!!

I love TKO too, and I don't want to move to MOS neither.... so remote! Now I can get on MTR in less than 5 mins (even I drive everyday) >-<

This is posted on WKS website, and please go back and check if there is any update frequently (also should call them frequently too)

===============================
Several meetings have been conducted over these past few weeks which gave us an ideal opportunity to meet with many parents interested in securing
a place for their child in the Wu Kai Sha indergarten. All those invited had lready submitted an application form and been allocated a place so it was good
to meet ‘face-to-face’ and begin the process of getting to know our future parents better.

It was our pleasure to confirm the good news for parents of 2005 born children [who would be due to start kindergarten as a K2 student]... Those
children will have priority for an interview in either an ESF Foundation Primary School, or an ESF Private Independent College. The rule requiring two terms attendance in kindergarten before the January 2010 interviews for Year One will be waived for such children.

Following the successful meetings, an opportunity was given to all parents to visit ESF's International Kindergarten in Tsing Yi, because of course Wu Kai
Sha is still in the process of development.

It was rewarding to receive so many flattering comments about the Tsing Yi kindergarten and to know that parents felt their time was very well spent.

Questions were raised about the completion of the Lake Silver development, and it is ESF’s understanding that the occupation permit for the
whole building is due in May. That is the point when ESF will commence its own internal fit-out, and all is currently on schedule .

Many families have also signed contracts, so it is indeed heartening that places are beginning to fill up.
Applications will however continue to be received, so please pass this information on to friends, colleagues or relatives! Any interested parties should call Mr Dinesh Daswani on 2760 3913.

The newly appointed Principal, Marilyn Clark will be in Hong Kong next term, so an invitation to meet her will be extended to all those who have already signed contracts. Her biography is being posted alongside this up-date so that everyone can celebrate the wonderful news of her appointment.
================================

GOOD LUCK to all WKS parents!

Dear Popolung

Thank you very much for quoting information.

There is one statement which I would like to clarify............... 'The rule requiring two terms attendance in kindergarten before the Ja ...

I will suggest the earlier you can place your kid into WKS (or other ESF Kinder), just go ahead. WKS also don't have a lot of vacancies I believed, and all ESF Primary School has a very long queue, so no one can really guarantee you anything anyway.....
