Hello, I have finally arrived here in Hong Kong, 2 months later than intended, which is making schools very difficult to find.
Has anyone heard of the wait time for Harbour School for a 5 and a 6 year old?
Second question is regarding apartment locations, how do people living in DB find the commute for their kids to and from HK island? The living in DB would be ideal for my kids, but the trek over and back each day are a big concern. (I checked with DBIS and the wait is over 170 kids long).
The other school options I have looked at are Woodlands and Sunshine House, but not sure if either will be appropriate for my 6 yr old (she has finished Kindergarten in the US).
thanks

Strawblade: could you please elaborate on that? Very worried to read this as my son will be starting at The Harbour School in August. :-(
You can pm me if you like. Thanks!

Thanks Strawblade, messaged you back. Very worrying indeed though, let this be a warning for other parents considering or already applying to The Harbour School!!! :-(

Hi Strawblade, can you share the information? I have a friend who recently arrived from Canada (and thus completely missed on the application process) who is looking into enrolling their child in Harbour? Thanks!

Your 5 year old can be in preschool, but your 6 year old should not. THS is not the only school to consider.

Hello All,
I also have had this problem,lots of waiting list. A simple search on google, 'THS reviews' will give you loads of information and opinions and experinces. We just got accepted into Kellet and could not be happier...I have to look for a house...once we arrive in a few weeks. I wish you luck. But, would apply to a few schools, don't put your eggs in one hat as they say.
