| Hi PoonHui I remember there was a reply asking whether you would pick up the school uniform by your child after school today or by the parents on tomorrow morning at 9:00am. Anyway, you better check with the class teachers for the right time. Cheers |

| Hi cutiemo, Interview at Kentville usually takes place on time. No need to fill in any other form. Interview is short and quick and serious. I am quite sure that you would not like the school after the interview. Haha. But this is just a false impression. Kentville is really a nice school with caring and experienced teachers. Questions asked are: What's your name? How old are you? Tell me where is the ball in the picture? What do you see in the picture? What is this (pointing to the slide) in the picture? Do the matching games. Putting blocks up. (sth like that, I am not sure, cos it's my husband accompanied my daughter during the interview). Ask the child to recognise eyes, ears, mouth, nose and head. Ask your child to sing a song. Expect your child to say thank you when receives gift/candy from teachers. Expect your child to sit properly and to pull back the chair after interview. Teacher will ask the parent some general questions such as is the child potty trained, how old does your child start walking, how old does your child start talking. I believe that it's still fine for a small child not to speak much as long as he is concentrated and well-behaved. No need to wear suit and tie for kindergarten interviews, I guess. Smart casual is good enough. I wore business like when I went to St. Catherine's interview with my daughter because it's a Friday. My husband just wore smart casual when he went to Kentville interview with my daughter. Hope the above helps. Cheers.

| Hi Cutiemo, It's a very usual interview. Short and casual question will ask. - be arrive on time. Better 15 mins earlier but don't be so early cause your child will be tired for waiting. - interview takes around 10 mins. No form need to fill in but remember to bring all the necessary doc. that mention in the letter. - simple questions like name, how old, build blocks, simple puzzle, recognize colors, shapes, sing song ... . - be teach the child to point out if he/she is shy. - as my opinion, big or small child is not so important as my boy's class also has many small boy/girl. - only casual dressing is required. - KV love kids with discipline and courtesy (it's also their teaching principle). So, don't be over-play and sleep well before interview. - important, there will be a staff give a small gift (like a candy) to child when leave the interview room. She will give mark to the child also by recognize the name sticker (which distribute and require to stick on child's chest during the interview process). So, remember to tell your child say "Thank you" when receive the gift. - as parents, relax and keep smile during interview. Be confident to your kids, and yourself. Pushing is not helpful. Hope above is clear, and good luck to you and your kids. |
