(E) Application for “2027/28 Registration Certificate for KG Admission”
1. Under the Scheme, parents are required to use a valid registration document for K1 registration in the 2027/28 school year. All KGs joining the Scheme can only admit children holding valid registration documents, i.e. “Registration Certificate for Kindergarten Admission” (RC) or “Kindergarten Admission Pass” (AP).
2. In line with the Government’s policy objective of digitalisation of public services, EDB has introduced the electronic “Registration Certificate for Kindergarten Admission” (e-RC). Each e-RC contains an encrypted QR code. When parents register with the KGs, KG staff only need to scan the QR code on the e-RC and the registration process will be completed automatically. EDB will issue a registration document to each child who can receive education in Hong Kong. Children eligible for receiving subsidy under the Scheme will be issued an e-RC. If a child is not eligible for receiving subsidy under the Scheme, an electronic AP (e-AP) will be issued for registration to a Scheme-KG but the parents concerned are required to pay full school fees (i.e. before deduction of subsidy under the Scheme) as shown on the Fees Certificate of the KG admitting the child.
3. Parents are required to submit an application for the RC to EDB from September to November 2026. EDB will announce the details of application on its website (https://www.edb.gov.hk). Upon receipt of the applications with all necessary information and documents provided, EDB will generally take six to eight weeks to complete processing and issue the RC to eligible applicants by post.
4. According to the mechanism of the Education Bureau providing free quality kindergarten education, the validity period of the RC is generally three years. If parents arrange for their children to receive kindergarten education for more than three years, they are generally required to pay the full tuition fee before deduction of the Scheme subsidy. Under special circumstances (e.g. relevant registered medical practitioners or professionals have certified that the children have special needs, so that their years of study in kindergartens are longer than the normal three years), parents may apply to the Education Bureau for the “Admission Pass” (AP).

(F) Interview Arrangements
1. The kindergarten will arrange interviews for all applicants.
2. The date and time of the interview will be notified when the application form is submitted.
3. Interviews will be conducted in group and individual settings.
4. A parent should accompany the child for the interview.
5. Please contact us at 29436611 or email info@twbcslk.edu.hk if interpretation/translation service is required during the interview with non-Chinese speaking (NCS) applicants. We also allow NCS parents and children to be accompanied by a Chinese-speaking relative/friend during the interview to facilitate communication.

(G) Admission Criteria and Number of School Places
* Applicant’s interview performance (80%)
* Parent performance (courtesy, parenting ideas, etc.) (15%)
* Applicant with sibling(s) currently studying in or graduated from the kindergarten (5%)
* For whole-day class applicants, apart from interview performance, applicants with family needs will be given due priority consideration. (As the number of school places is limited, please understand that not all applicants fulfilling the priority consideration will be guaranteed a school place.)
* Number of school places ~ Half-day class: 29 Whole-day class: 29
* The kindergarten provides equal opportunities for admission to all children regardless of ethnicity, gender, etc.

(H) Announcement of Admission Results and Registration Arrangements
1. We will inform parents of the K1 admission results before Friday, 11 December 2026.
2. Successful applicants: Parents should complete the registration procedures for their child on 7-8/1/2027 9:30am-11:30am / 1:30pm-4:00pm or Saturday, 9/1/2027 9:00am-10:00am by presenting the electronic “RC”/“AP” or a screenshot of the QR code printed on the electronic “RC”/“AP” to the kindergarten, together with the registration fee ($950 for half-day class / $1500 for whole-day class). The registration fee will not be refunded after registration.
3. Withdrawal notice: Should parents intend to give up the school place after registration, please notify the kindergarten in writing. The kindergarten will assist in the de-registration procedures, but the registration fee will not be refunded. Upon completion of de-registration, the kindergarten will no longer reserve the school place for the child.
4. Parents please note that if you fail to bring a valid electronic registration document or a screenshot of the QR code to the school for registration on the specified dates, the kindergarten may not be able to complete the registration procedures for the admitted child. Parents must therefore apply for the relevant registration documents from the Education Bureau within the specified dates.
5. School fees for the new school year: Under the 27-28 Education Bureau Quality Kindergarten Education Policy, half-day classes do not need to pay tuition fees. Whole-day class parents still need to bear part of the cost, but the tuition fee for the new school year still needs to be approved by the Education Bureau. The exact amount will be notified to parents before the new school year opens in September. Parents can still apply for fee remission if necessary. (Remarks: The tuition fee for whole-day classes in 25-26 is $710/month and the lunch fee is $556/month, in 10 instalments.)

(I) Briefing for Freshmen: Saturday, 24/10/2026, 9:30-11:00am. Parents are encouraged to attend this meeting to understand the details of our curriculum and the features of teaching and learning. Registration will be open on the school website in September.
