Tumtum,

We submitted an application for our baby when he was 8 mths old.  The admin staff informed that there had already been more than 100 applicants ahead of us .  He will attend "Head Start", a 4-mth playgroup programme commencing next Jan.  The co-ordinator advises that there are 4 classes, each of which would have 10-12 participants.  It appears that not all applicants are invited to join "Head Start".  Do you have any idea about the size of the ELP and the invitation process?  Thx

實在係漫漫長路：Head Start---->ELP--->N1--->K1

It is little doubt parents choosing this nursery would generally aim at those famous local schools, notably SPCCPS.  If one has no relationship with such schools at all, to get into a good kindy sounds a good start.  

Somehow, this is satirical we opt for Breamar Hill principally based on its track record admission rate to SPCCPS, without knowing anything about its education philosophy, teaching mode, teachers' attitude, parents-school relationship and etc, which should be more important for a kid's growth.  In a modern world, there is no website, no school visit, no introductory briefing, no publication and little if not no information on Education Bureau's site.  We can only get piecemeal information from friends/relatives whose kids were studying there, but may be years ago.  Having said that, there is a long queue for this kindy.
