/ I% L0 a% Z1 N0 `% | 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.

% z: S' v' y! D) ?7 L 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:: ~9 t' Z" h: @  k2 d: T

7 P/ F8 f4 g# r8 J# D' a+ O, L0 {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.
8 a5 L! F5 i5 F, s5 w No on site child care available.   Z6 x$ \/ x# X3 Z. M8 o3 {

4 e" Y2 X3 K( W( L 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.
7 Z: J7 Q! \0 N. m8 O& L6 B& g/ e) M) ^
Option 2: Mandarin Bilingual program - Parkallen School where there is a YMCA KinderCare close by, $755 a month, AND there is a wait list.5 r- k+ H: z5 C1 D3 a. W
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.
