By December 13, 2025, kindergartens will notify parents of the results of their K1 application. Those who are successful in their application should register at a kindergarten during the designated registration period (January 2–4, 2026) and submit the “Registration Certificate”/“Admission Permit” along with the registration fee. Those who are not successful can refer to the information on available K1 places published by the Education Bureau and apply to other kindergartens after the registration period ends (starting at the end of February 2026). For candidates on the waiting list, if there are still available places in the kindergarten, we will send notifications to these individuals. Parents are requested to come to the kindergarten on the designated date to complete the registration process and submit the required documents and fees. If the valid registration documents are not submitted by the designated date, it may be impossible for the kindergarten to complete the admission procedures for these children.
