Hi beachmom,

I'd be interested to join with my son but also think that HKD200 a session is quite pricey..

Is that the price for 6 kids?
 
HK$200 if for one and half hour (max 6).
Another option is that HK$150 for 45 mins (max 4).

All fees are included an expense for renting the playroom in club house of Park Island and transportation fee for tutor.

Think about it....

Camka, you can see the Park Island when you are passing through Tsing Ma Bridge (to airport).
 
beachmom,

have you check with you clubhouse if such functions are allowed cause we previously joined a Kindermusik class at Tsuen Wan at someone else's clubhouse and were told by there management office that PRIVATELY ran classes were NOT permitted so our classes were cancelled after a few weeks.
 
Camka,
Park Island is a small island located near Tsing Yi. Similar to Discovery Bay, cars are not allowed into the island. You could either take the ferry from Tsuen Wan or shuttle bus from Tsing Yi station or Kwai Fong.
 
Checked w/ our clubhouse. It should be okay for private function.

Can I get confirmation from any interested mommies if you will join or not by Sunday (18 May)?

Thanks!!!

I'm interested in the class but would like to know more about the tutor i.e. her credentials and experience. Please PM me her information.
Cheers!
 
Hi beachmom,

I'm interested to join in! and prefer the 10am to 11am session.

What happens if we can't make it for a session? Will there be a charge still?
 
Wow, seems teaching kids mandarin is a cash cow in HK. I'd welcome anyone to come to play with my 2.8 years old son for FREE as soon as we find a more permanente place to live (North Point or Quarry Bay?). All of us are bilingual in English and mandarin already. I moved to US after college and worked several years as a children's librarian there before coming here.
 
Hi Angiec,

You will not loose your $$. If there is a spare spot in either the earlier or later sessions on any particular day, the child could join that.

Now, I have gathered about 6-7 kids but will wait till 12 kids for two sessions (targeting June 7).

When do you think you can start the playgroup? Just let me get a brief idea so I could prepare for the lesson (booking a room. etc).

If any mommies are interested in joining the playgroup, please let me know with which session you'd like to join.

Thanks!
