Sorry I can not type in Chinese now. + l7 O* y' J+ C

3 L' g' p% Y  v( o( h! N9 S 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.

To kick it off, here are my two cents.

# m  d4 B! B4 C/ I 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:  M- |* m5 G6 Z( P2 e
0 K& D: z( v: u2 u6 c2 D( a
Option 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.
/ C. `# ^! S( M+ s" R No on site child care available.
4 S5 Q: F3 S) H% f) ]$ g/ V. I) Z* g$ {( ^4 H3 @; I9 N
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./ b. |/ n8 R; d
( ]* U1 }  L2 H: c# A8 ^; y
Option 2: Mandarin Bilingual program - Parkallen School where there is a YMCA KinderCare close by, $755 a month, AND there is a wait list.
! x* O- q' B5 [) o4 g 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.
