& g0 F) W; N: X, 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.) F5 O# _, j6 ^% M; C; `

To kick it off, here are my two cents.
+ J# O0 O8 I" R$ C# j$ C4 ]9 a# K* 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:
( B6 ~) K5 [8 b7 B  f
9 i- p( o3 a2 b5 z- m. }9 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. . V1 m7 N; E* b  `3 `% V
No on site child care available.   ?1 {2 J" K  M: k* W$ B  [

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." t+ w7 {( e; m* u% Z5 `

Option 2: Mandarin Bilingual program - Parkallen School where there is a YMCA KinderCare close by, $755 a month, AND there is a wait list.
* ]  ?1 ^$ M# [  N) q 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.
