|
|
| Can anybody give me some info and advice regarding teenagers migrating to NZ? I am moving with my husband and 2 children 11 and 15 in April. I am settling in ChCh. My teenage son is a bit anxious about starting a new school; leaving his mates etc. Does anybody out there have a teenager who my son could 'talk' to and who would reassure him that NZ schooling is great? thanks a lot |

Hi susanlin,
My kids are a bit younger than yours. Get him into a good school - check the ERO reports http://www.ero.govt.nz - and I'm sure everything will go well.  |

| It will vary between schools of course, but my high school had different streams for different academic levels, keep that in mind |
