3 |2 ?) N; U% N1 L* u1 b' [. y 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. 4 P* ~- _# V& m5 D3 g

0 D" C* ~! ?3 a& ?9 c 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:
& V; D8 [& \. Y; ]/ L) I
: }" Q* K# K! ~: ^! g# x6 jOption 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.
/ f6 [. k3 d, d+ r& t% S3 _ No on site child care available. 2 F4 |7 v1 O7 w$ m% ~. O; D

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.% O' a/ J) v1 t0 \

Option 2: Mandarin Bilingual program - Parkallen School where there is a YMCA KinderCare close by, $755 a month, AND there is a wait list.
0 [5 J6 @6 T! [  P$ Y& N) T 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. ! T& H( q9 J- r/ v) @3 K- v! X' p
