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.5 }2 }3 B" u( v$ m( p

Anyone concerned and/or more experienced handling this situation are welcomed to join in this discussion:  |; ~0 o+ e8 f- |1 t/ ]

To kick it off, here are my two cents.

: z; h. F/ E1 M+ Y+ 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:8 U4 o! w4 o$ [5 G0 J6 Z
. D, |8 R; |* U
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.
( a+ U& u, U( @& i) N No on site child care available. " M9 g6 y' u5 g% f& S( K2 G

: b( Y% u* o7 K5 q7 H 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.- b( k- R" j1 T; t

  Q- t; f- |( b( N' o9 G% H9 uOption 2: Mandarin Bilingual program - Parkallen School where there is a YMCA KinderCare close by, $755 a month, AND there is a wait list.% o4 y5 U) k% o& t5 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. 8 H5 T; I" K  G, i/ u% p3 I) P
