Hi - I can't help but think, that fees for private high schools at the top end for year 12 are around $15,000 a year and added to this all else that goes with attending one of these schools.

What are they going to be like when our two and three year olds are twelve and thirteen ? $20,000 ?

Nick and I between us, earn just over what is considered to be the *average* wage and just manage to cover bills and put a bit away. Where do regular people get that sort of money ? And twice that if you have two children ?

My parents took out loans with AVCO so my brother and I could have private schooling, and my two sisters went to regular schools and have both excelled. I think someone back there said it depends on the child. I'd like to think we could pay for the second half of high school as private.

Barb.
