Sorry I can not type in Chinese now. 8 `' Q8 |, q$ z8 Q- i* k

2 \. @: l" h# o$ n 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.

  {: y% ]/ g8 l+ z$ R 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:3 H! \8 U# ?, t; p  [; T: I

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. # m" u! S& p4 R2 N4 A1 ^
No on site child care available. ' M6 |+ ]9 H5 m) g
! F2 @4 z5 r" I" k
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.+ z1 e3 e7 F7 z3 ~: Q% M

- W; a  `' R, f# f3 Z( hOption 2: Mandarin Bilingual program - Parkallen School where there is a YMCA KinderCare close by, $755 a month, AND there is a wait list.
$ a2 \2 m# K% u. A# i2 v3 N 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.
