Thanks Trillian for your reply. I will pick the enrolment form up today. Like you said 5 months is still a while away. I'll put his name down for orientation and see what the teachers think. Like you said when it comes to Feb if I think he's not ready I just won't send him. It just worries me that there will be kids in his class that are a full year older than him. My other DS is one of the oldest so it was never a problem.
