Sorry I can not type in Chinese now. 9 }4 `- J+ @5 L8 c  ?' m7 f3 H

9 M1 @# @' I8 D, X+ P We live in Magrath Heights and we are currently struggling with our 5-year-old daughter's to Kindergarten registration.  I wonder if there are parents in Magrath, MacTaggart area who are struggling with this issue as well. I wish to explore possibilities to group up and help each other out on making our lives easier with the half-day kindergarten program.# Q) `" h: v; o/ s0 I

  N# ^9 C, h2 W. \! U To kick it off, here are my two cents.
' N" D! Q) d4 K) A+ |$ R8 [- H2 n, }1 \" P& Q
We need to make up our mind as to which school to register to since one kid can only send in ONE registration at a time, and it can be really hard to switch school in the middle of the year. Currently there are two options for my daughter:
5 V: H2 C& z, Q9 `
* q1 z6 Z" ?, HOption 1: Regular program - a new school - Nellie Carlson(http://www.epsb.ca/schools/newsc ... ions/nelliecarlson/) is under construction and scheduled to open September 2016; boundaries not finalized yet. 5 H2 R1 I) F% Q+ R: b
No on site child care available.
7 R  f+ A3 m; l3 A" b6 F+ }9 q$ i6 l- x
IF we fall under the final boundary, what to do with the afternoons? My husband and I both work full-time 30 minutes drive from home. I maybe able to take one afternoon off in a week, part-time is not likely an option.4 R2 ^# t  J: j. z' d- {
* C! i, S+ X# X1 F; ~3 [4 l. o
Option 2: Mandarin Bilingual program - Parkallen School where there is a YMCA KinderCare close by, $755 a month, AND there is a wait list.. Q, [" q& r% T# z0 x; q, B1 |4 F
Honestly, I wish to send my daughter to the Mandarin Bilingual school, but again, there is the afternoon issue, YMCA is not guaranteed and expensive. I wonder if there are other parents considering this school and we could come up with a program to support each other and incorporate with Chinese elements.
