Thanks for posting this Dach as I`ve been wondering when the cut off myself, I must admit I`m very surprised it`s as late as 31st July.

Matthew being a May 3rd baby, I have a few decisions to make, thank goodness I have a few years to think about it.

I started School in NZ and they would not take children under 5 so I started at 5.5 years (July 1st is my birthday) when attending school in Australia a lot of children I went to school with where the same age as myself, some of them off course were a year younger and they seem less mature, that year certainly makes a difference.

My step son is a June 2nd baby, he started school at 4.5 years, he had to repeat 2 years ago as he`s immature and not as social as the others in his year.

My SIL`s children attend a Private School, they will not take children until they are 6, if we lived closer to this school it`s where Matthew would be attending.

Sherie - I hope Lindsay enjoyed his first day at big school.
