Hi, Your video is helpful. More power to you 😀 We are family of 4 and will be arriving on Sept 2, Do public schools in Canada accept late enrollees for elementary? TIA 😊
Thank you! I think they will still be able to accept your kids cos school starts on September. You should reach out to the school as early as now to explain your situation. They might give you a consideration.
@@TheMapleDiaries Correction mam, schools are controlled and funded by the provincial government. Regions, cities and the school boards run the public and Catholic schools, not the Federal government.
Need help how to dress my daughter for school in the winter. Can you do a video dressing your daughter to demonstrate and what type of clothes to wear? Thanks.
@@TheMapleDiaries hello sis san kau sa ontario? And anong school ng baby mo i will study in fanshawe london ontario and wala pa ko mahanap na place to stay and school for my kids
Very well explained .. could you pls also explain the dice between public and catholic schools in terms of studies, curriculum , funding , sports, grading , teaching etc .. which is best on both
Hi mam Can you please tell me the name of the kindergarten where your daughter went..(french catholic) Because i am able to find only one name..Rose des vents
How did u manage to work your schedules regarding your daughter’s schooling in terms of going to school and fetching her after daily when both of you and your spouse are working?
Hi there! That’s a very good question! This pandemic was a lot easier cos my husband and I were both working from home which made our life a lot easier. However, pre-pandemic days, it was stressful for me cos I need to collect my daughter from the school every time I finish my work at 4pm. Mornings are not a problem because we just drop her off before going to work.
@@TheMapleDiaries has there been any instances where you could not fetch her on time? Is there any school services wherein they keep safe your child until the parent arrives, if so how much do these services cost and terms of payment?
Dear, thanks for this informative vid. Very helpful for a potential immigrant family from Beijing. Can you tell me do kids still have to wear masks in school nowadays? Thanks ❤
Wearing masks is no longer mandatory here in Canada. Students are no longer required to wear masks at school though you can still wear one if you prefer it. Tnx
Hello, we are a family of 5 from Singapore 🇸🇬 will like to check if my twins had completed Grade 6 (Primary School Leaving Examination) by Oct’23 any idea if the school board will re-assess their standard before placing both in the appropriate grade 6/7 (not sure how the system works in the public school @ Canada). ☺️
Hi!! Came across your channel and your video and I'm about to make a decision, which is to stay in my home country (Portugal) or move to Canada (under a pre approved 2yr work permit). Both of us have NOC's in high demand there in Ontario, but, we have 2 kids...what makes me afraid of moving is the possibility of one of us have to be kept home taking care of our kids (4yr and 1yr) due to not having schools for them. Is it so that we could get free schools for both? I've read so many stuff on the internet...like it goes from 1K to 1.6K month for each kid...if we take the worst case scenario we'd have to pay around 3K just for school, which is totally insane in my perspective. Would be really greatful if you could share your thoughts on this!! :)
Oh Portugal, such a beautiful country too! As mentioned, Canadian public schools are free. But if you opt for a private school then that’s where you need to pay a tuition fee. Daycare is a different story, if you have babies and toddlers and you wish to send them to a daycare then that’s not free. I sent my daughter when she was only 3 to a daycare and it costs me 1k bucks. But when she turned 4, she already went to JK in a french catholic school free of charge. I only paid the before or after care. Since we have work and I can only pick her up around 4pm (school is dismiss by 3pm). I have to pay the after care program. It’s a per hour fee, around $40. You might need a daycare for your 1yr old kid where you have to pay.
Hi there! The school year is until the end of June. I’m not sure if your kids can still make it for this school year. I strongly suggest to reach out your school as early as now so you know what to expect. You can send them an email and they will get back to you even you haven’t arrived here yet. Good luck and keep safe.
I moved to Canada at the end of February. I emailed the school as soon as I landed. The Family Reception Center was informed by the school and an appointment for setup for evaluation. My daughter started school today, continuing in the same grade.
Hello, I just want to ask how we can enroll our kids in school here in Kingston, Ontario. Do we need to directly go to the school or we need to go to the district school board first? My wife is an international student, and as what ive known our kids are qualified to study here for free as a primary dependent. Thanks
Hello! You only need to reach out to the school of your choice. You may contact or email them to schedule your visit. Goodluck with your school search.
Hey di i want to ask you i am in 10th right now and i want to shift to canada after 10th .can you make video which exam i have to give , requirements and part time job and how to choose school if their is any schlorship
Thank you very much for the video, it is very interesting. I would like to ask some questions, maybe you can tell me: Are there schools with the international baccalaureate program? Public and private schools have this program? Since what grade do they follow the international baccalaureate program? Thanks for your answer!
Please is public school better than private school? And please if the parents closes work from 4-5pm how will they get their children back from school since u said school starts by 8 am and end by 3pm, and do u mean public schools don't take any fees at all?
Public schools are funded by the government which also comes from the taxpayer’s pockets. You may send your kids to before and after daycare services provided in schools, this comes with a minimal fee.
Good day momshie. Regarding po sa Birth Certificate na kailangan, need po ba etong naka-Apostille or okay na po yung galing na mismo ng PSA (NSO). Salamat sa pagsagot. Godbless.
Hello po, do you have an email address for the Ontario school board? I would like to inquire about the process for my kids who will come along with me under study permit. Thank you for your time and response.
Nice informative video. If a child is 5 years old is has taken a semester of kindergarten and 2 years of Pre-K in the Philippines. If she arrives in CA by mid December - will the public schools allow her to continue the second semester of Kindergarten there? Thanks and stay safe!
Hello! That’s a very good question. I understand that the average cut-off date for entry into the school system is Dec 31st. You could directly reach out to the school before arriving here in Canada if that would be the case. Thanks.
Please do not send your children to the public school in Canada. Choose a private school or do homeschooling. You will not be sorry if you make this decision.
