We visited two schools today. The kids took it in their stride, I was a bundle of nerves. I kept finding excuses not to call and arrange viewings today. In the morning we visited Hugh Cairns V.C. School and in the afternoon we visited Prince Philip School. The first did not have any spaces for our little one. The principle seemed to have problems understanding me, also Callum and Jessica's names and seemed a bit put under pressure about the fact we were visiting both.

Apparently most schools have nicknames, and the second schools is the Prince Philip's Pirates. It has two children originally from Leicester, England. Also as well as having space in the pre-school the teacher said "did you hear their accent, if you have problems understanding them, just remember they will have problem of understanding us" They also have an autistic child in most classes and two Autism Support Class.

It surprised my that they do not have the same issue with security as in England. For example the playgound is also the park in both cases.
