Hi carolyndrewery

You can try Hongkong Preschool in Royal ascot, or Boxhill and ICS kindies in Jubilee garden. Where do you live in shatin? I think there must be a kindie in the estate you live in. We are in Royal ascot so i would like my daughter to go to one these kindies as they are all in walking distance, but right now i take my duaghetr to Kowloon Tong for playgroup.

Would recommend Hong Lok Yuen, in Tai Po (about 20mins away) They follow a British curriculum. Plus the majority of the children who attend are from English speaking families from overseas. That way, your child would be happier since he will be able to communicate w/ his classmates.

HLY--very diverse, seems to be a great school, but very expensive and far from just about everything. You can't take the train there and it might be more than a 20 minute bus ride from Shatin. To take public transport, outside of a cab, you'll end up switching often, so I assume you mean a 20 minute, school bus ride.

I think maybe it will be too late for the ESF kindergarten and also I want something a little more relaxed for a little while. thanks :]

I think all the ESF deadlines for next September passed a long time ago.

If you live in Shatin, I think Kowloon tong is a better option than Tai PO, its easily accessible. And Most of the International schools there are cheaper than HLY. Also almost all the schools ther have their school buses to most of the residential estates in shatin.
