Once you’re ready to proceed, please complete the online application form.

Ensure that all fields are filled out accurately and that the required documents are uploaded in English.

Documents to be submitted with the application:

1. A copy of the child’s passport and guardian’s passport

2. A recent passport-sized photo of the child

3. A copy of the child’s birth certificate

4. A copy of the child’s and guardian’s CPR (required for local residents and if available, for other residents).

Step 2: Application review

After receiving your application, our Admissions Team will carefully review all submitted materials. Based on this review, we’ll determine the appropriate grade level for your child.

Pre-nursery 2 years - 2 years 11 months
Nursery 3 years - 3 years 11 months
Kindergarten 1 4 years - 4 years 11 months
Kindergarten 2 5 years - 5 years 11 months

Step 3: Entrance interview

We invite each child to participate in an entrance interview, either individually or in a small group setting. We adopt a holistic approach to understand your child’s needs, abilities and prospective learning.

The interview evaluates your child’s cognitive, social, emotional, behavioral, and motor development.

Once the interview is complete, we will confirm your child’s admission status. If your child is offered a place, you will receive a formal offer letter.

To confirm your child’s enrollment, please sign the offer letter and return the required documents. We’ll also ask for the applicable fees to complete the enrollment process.

Waiting List

Applications are accepted on a rolling, first-come-first-served basis throughout the academic year, subject to availability. We encourage families to apply early to ensure a spot for their child.

We assess each child’s age, development, and readiness during the entrance interview to ensure they are placed in the best environment for their growth.

Children must meet the age requirements for their desired grade.

Siblings of current students are given priority in the admissions process, as long as they meet the age and academic criteria.

If a class is full, your child will be placed on the waiting list. Placement is based on application date, age, and readiness.
