SBOA School and Junior College, Anna Nagar Western Extension, Chennai; affiliated to CBSE - LKG Interview

By Categories: 


We had applied for a seat in LKG at SBOA School and Junior College, Anna Nagar Western Extension, Chennai; affiliated to CBSE on the 21st of Jan 2009.

The interview was scheduled for the 31st Jan 2009. We just completed the interview yesterday.

We were worried that we might have to wait for ever as there were over a thousand candidates to be interviewed (For, I guess around approximately 600 seats). However, the interview process was conducted so smoothly that it must have taken considerable amount of planning from the SBOA school authorities. We were through with the entire process within an hour, including a waiting time of around 40 Min's.

The interviewer was friendly and asked my daughter a few simple questions like her name, colour of the dress she was wearing and to name a couple of common animals (by showing her toy animals).

On the whole a very friendly and non-intimidating interview. After this, the applications get passed to another school staff, to whom the parents can ask any questions they have regarding the SBOA admission process and this person also gave us information on when we can expect to be intimidated about the selection and admission of our daughter into SBOA, if selected.

SBOA School Bus and Transport alternatives

By
The School bus facility at SBOA School and Junior College is for students of class LKG to class 5. The fee for the bus ranges from Rs.1800 to Rs.2300 per term depending on the distance travelled. The school bus picks up students from a point on the route closest to the students residence and drops them back at the same point. If the parent is not around to receive the child, the child is taken back to the school and the parents have to arrange to collect their wards from the school. The other option available is to send them via private vans. This is definitely more convenient as the pick up and drop are usually at your doorstep or closer than the school bus drop point and they usually wait for a few extra Min's. The biggest drawback is that all the operators use Mahindra vans(The green boxy ones) and they are not very comfortable. Swaraj Mazda or even a tempo traveller would be nice, but I guess only if a big group of parents go out of their way to find one, the situat...

LKG Interview @ SBOA - A Review

By
It is a big relief for us that the LKG interview at SBOA went smoothly. And as I sit back and think what helped and what didn't, a few facts did surprise me. The kids did need to know a few basic things for the interview and I think all the kids who came for this one were prepared. The main distinguishing factor was the stress levels of the parents, the more the parents were stressed about the whole process, the kids clung to them, when the parents treated this as any normal outing, the kids were more adventurous. Once the parents were able to relax the kids were more like their usual self. Believe me when I say, this was not the place or the time to keep pushing the kids to say hello to the other waiting kids or parents as every kid in that place was already intimidated by the crowed. The other striking feature I noticed was that when the Parents pretended to let the kids lead them to either the interview room or to the application counters, the kids automatically took control.

LKG Admissions @ SBOA Junior College 2014 - 2015

By
So the little one is ready for LKG and you are hell bent on finding the right school. Maybe you have narrowed down SBOA School and Junoir College, Anna Nagar or it is on your list of schools to consider, either ways you would need to pick up an application first. From 2012 the applications can be downloaded online and the registration fee needs to be paid at the time of submitting the application. Usually the applications are issued by the mid of January for the current year admissions. You will have at least 2 weeks to prepare your application and submit it. The documents requested to be submitted along with the application would be The birth certificate of the child (With the name entered) An Address proof (Could be the childs passport, family ration card, gas bill in the name of the father or mother, etc...) There are around 1000+ seats available, but unfortunately the demand is disproportionately high.  The below website is where you...
