Private School or Govenment School?

it really is Huggles. so its definitely on my list. I have 2 more to view

Sounds really lovely Bandile

Hello Ladies,

I hope everyone is well.

So today I went to view Curro Aurrora. I was very impressed with the following:

- Child, Teacher ratio in the classroom
- Attention to detail, they have ways of teaching children in a fun, playful manner,
- Classrooms are small, and they are built small so, there is no way you can have 30 kids in the class.
-such happy and mannered little children there, we were greeted left right and center, from nursery school kids all the way to high school pupils
-Family orientated school. its all about the kids and parents. parents views and kids views both matters and are valued.

The school is still very young in fact it is only under 2 years in its existence as Curro Aurora and its amazing. I still want to view more schools though, before I make the final choice.

awe Anthea.
I live Pretoria East and work Sandton.. that life even i am 28 weeks almost 29 tomorrow...

Indeed Bandile... but Waterford is too expensive and too far out for us... i work in Brooklyn and hubby in Midrand so this is almost central...

All the best with your decision.

HI.

I really like that idea Anthea08. changing the lifestyle. would love to stay at Waterfall Midrand.

Hi ladies

Been following this thread with interest... Also in the same boat with my LG...

Have a look at Midstream College if any of you stay in PTA area, and would consider moving for the sake of schooling for your children... My LG will attend the same baby scool, primary school and high school... and it addresses all the concerns that GW raised, and put into persepctive for all of us - thanks GW!!! It nailed our concerns to the T!

It is private but not too expensive and its a lifestyle change! We mmoved in at the end of last year and love it there - its so safe the kids can rides bikes to school etc... Its almost like when we grew up... The Estate is called Midstream Estates... We made this sacrifice for our girls - yes you can pay top dollar for the ebst private schools but you also gotta look at your lifestyle - things are just too chaotic at the moment and it helps having them close to home, with regards to schooling - one establishes a netowrk with the other mommies and if you're ever in a bind they can assist you with lifts etc... And when they are older they can all ride their bikes together as they all stay in the same estate...
