Nikky, we've started looking at school for DS too. I didn't think I'd feel this devastated. I can't believe he won't be home 5 days a week! I miss him when he is kinder lol. We'd always planned to send DS to a local school which is quite large, because his cousins go there and love it. But since he has started kinder, I've realised he is very, very social but gets overwhealmed in large groups so we are now also considering a small rural school about 20 minutes away. I've got appointments at both schools in the next few weeks to look around so this thread is great! I would of never considered to ask half the questions that MG suggested.
