My daughter is 2 yrs and 6 months as on Jan 01, 2012 and we will be shifting to Frankfurt on Feb/ March 2012...Please let me know if she is would be eligible for next academic session and till what time are the admissions done? Regards, Mink.
Hi Mink Welcome to Germany. Wish you a Happy New Year. Here Normally Academic year here begins by September. They ll admit the Kids in the kindergarten at the age of 3. But in some Kindergarten they ll take kids from 2 1/2 also. After u move to Frankfurt, u have to enquire nearby kindergarten and then u have to register it there. If there is a vacant place, they ll give admission immediately or else u have to wait for some time. If u hve any more queries just reply me. regards priya
Hi Priya, Thanks foryour response. So, I will get time for my kids admission if I can arrive there before March/ April. Do you knowany Indian group or community which I can join ? regards, mink.
Hi Mink Sure there ll be an Indian group in Frankfurt. Since i am staying in hannover, which is far from Frankfurt, i dont know abt the communities there. But for sure , u can find a good number of Indian people there. U ll get a chance to meet them in Indian shops or in some public places. Hope u ll hve a good time in Germany. regards priya
Hello Mink, Welcome to Frankfurt. Regarding kindergarten, its good to register as early as possible as i am also facing problem for my son's admission who is now 3.3yrs old. indians r many but scatered all over the city so its really difficult to get a community unless u have ur own circle i guess....lets b in touch once u come here. bye
hi Mink, I am sending this reply in a hurry so kindly excuse. 1.u have to register ur child b4 15th of Feb 2012.So if u do see this post please register urself with the Municipal Kita. 2.I have enrolled mine in a private Kita(Expensive though,but i didnt have suitable options). 3.I dont know much about Frankfurt,please see their municipal website. BTW the 15th Feb date is for Stuttgart
Hi Sjoshi, We have arrived here couple of months back and recently my daughter got admission in a nice KG quite close to our home in Langen. We are looking for like minded people who we can socialize and develop good relationship with. If you are interested, please do not hesitate to contact me at mink19@yahoo.com if you are interested. I guess you are based in Frankfurt main. Langen is quite close to Frankfurt (only 10 mins to FRA Hbf)... Regards, Mink
