woodlands school- sai kung

[alibali]

Hi. Does anyone have any info (pdf, word document) about the classes at this school. I've called for info (twice) and I have gotten some info verbally, but I keep losing the info I've written down. Would be so handy to have an electronic version. The school's website doesn't have much detail on classes/ times/ costs... Thanks.

Woodlands Preschool is expanding to Sai Kung area/distinct as early as Sept 2009. Boy I am excited with the expansion to Sai Kung. Good reputation with preschool around most Hong Kong distinct nothing should go wrong. Then shortly a few of my close parent friends told me they were looking into applying for them but they did more research then me and actually check thy status of their licenses for approval n found Town Planning Board had review their request and had Disapproved their zoning for a Preschool to be establish in Sai Kung where they are situated. Boy was I am shocked and at the same time furious where I've paid the fee for my two kids registration 750 X2 =$1500 that's a hefty price tag for my two kids. I can't believe with such good reputation I thought at first would a school accept my money and yet their legal issue are not even dealt with. I was furious when my friends brought this up and if any of you want to read a full status report the link is the following Go to page 26 of this PDF for Sai Kung and Island Distinct. I hope I can get my refund back but it seems the registration is not refundable. I wish to notify all parents about this so they don't get into the same ordeal as I did.

Thank Shri for sharing with us with Woodland Preschool's response but are you aware that they are not even schedule for the upcoming appeals from the Town Planning Board. This mean's it's impossible for them to be open for Sept 1, of 2009. Please don't provide false information and check with the Government or EDB.

Let me put it in layman's terms, if Woodland Preschool is rejected from Town Planning Board this means they will not be able to get a license from Education Bureau Department (EBD) which means they can't open their doors in running a Preschool or Kindergarten

Dude - Take it up with Woodlands. I have no interest in your agenda, just repeating what Woodlands has told us when we talk to them about this.

I'd take you more seriously if you told us who you are and allowed us to put you in touch with Woodlands so that you could sort your problems out.

It is obvious that your issue is not with sorting your problem out, but you're more keen to slam them.
