Exactly what's happening now

I moved to a startup business that didn't have a permanent office as my previous place didn't offer WFH at all (we got called back to the…

I guess there is a possibility, but I have yet to check with the school (I'm pretty sure I've asked them but can't remember what the…

ACER is for private school merit entry

yeah, that might be the case.. Financing 20K+ for 7 years is not that easy though

Very true.. hard to leave when you have a great team..

I've pretty much had a similar scenario. I've had a fantastic manager and a great team, but the manager left leaving us alone. The new…

Agree Mate. I've thought of not considering the offer. I figured out it's not worth scraping the barrel for a top school. I've found a…

what's the difference between Bosch Green and Blue colours ?

I have no clue. This is a Catholic school though, not sure if they have quota for non-Catholics

The local school has a terrible reputation. We either have to move to a catchment or private school

Is that acceptable to the school ? :O

Exactly scotty.. if i want to move to the city to go in a good catchment such as Brisbane State High, it would definitely cost me closer to…

That is exactly what my thoughts are. Then again, I feel I should save that 40K and try the ACER exam at grade 7...

well.. i honour his opinion but kids at this stage is very subjective. We went for a school tour of another school with him which had a…

I understand the friendships are important, and having said that, he will study with the same kinds from Grade 5 onwards in his new school.…

Thank you.. I'm actually doing these and preparing him for the entrance exams. I'm worried that if I miss this opportunity, we may not get…

I know, very clever. I've heard some old boys are struggling to enrol their kids to these schools. No idea how the offer landed on us anyway

He is still 9 and doesn't have a clue what he wants to be (says he wants to be a YouTuber like most kids these days) I've only got one kid.…

I've already asked them and they said no. Talking to people, they say it's very hard to get an enrolment at this school (some say even the…

Yeah understand the costs.. this one is around 20K per year.. doesn't fluctuate a lot when he goes to year 12. I've only got one kid. We…

Yeah, he is 9. He probably have no idea what he wants to do

Hi All, Seeking an opinion on a dilemma I'm going through at the moment. My son goes to a public school closer to where I live in South…

Back home, they used to add gelatine to yogurt. Everything we find is a set yogurt rather than the watery version found here. Is there any…

same here.. was trying for a while.. can't pick the time and date.. too late to call the stores too

Thats one of my biggest worries.. I don't think the rent will cover the mortgage itself therefore big maintenance cost will be definitely a…

when do you think it will rise.. I'm hearing that they will rise in the latter part of the year

Thanks.. The Brisbane property market is crazy at the moment, its impossible to find a property withing my budget (600 - 650K) in a good…

That's true.. i'm not going to be able to subdivide even if it is a 600 block.

I haven't thought about the time period but would like to hold on to it for a reasonable time period. If the newer smaller home will…
