Frenzied parents now hit Yuen Long kindies with plastic stools

Hundreds of people lined up for the Yuen Long Lutheran Life Kindergarten starting yesterday morning to obtain application forms that will begin distributing this morning at 9:00am.

Only 800 forms are available, and frenzied parents have descended in droves to secure a place for their children armed with plastic stools.

Yesterday morning, eager parents have already started lining up outside the school, using stools to hold their place. Many parents even pasted a piece of paper with their name, phone, and self-assigned place on the stools, using them to substitute their actual presence in line.

This is all incredibly silly and a waste of effort. Parents shouldn’t worry about kindergarten places — check out our article on picking the right kindy for your kids.
