Your blog sounded like a half a minute transcript from one of the 124 conversations that go around in my head way too often about what choices to make about education, lifestyle etc for my sons. I think I have come to the conclusion that there just aren't any right paths. I work in the area of education and there is the real risk that I know too much - I am also a crazy reader, researcher, opinion seeker so that all equals info overload at times. I think I've made one good decision only to find that at a seminar that I attend it suddenly seems like a ludicrous idea and I'm back to square one. Anyway enough blah, blahing from me - I can say that I did a tour of Preshil a month ago and it really did seem wonderful. I have explored the Steiner/Waldorf thing and came to the same conclusion that the spritual angle didn't really sit with me. Preshil seems to offer a similar approach without that angle. My son loved the whole setting - mum it's the Australian bush, were his words as we entered the campus :o)Good luck as you travel down the decision making path.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-21535770.post-1159005984773604222006-09-23T20:06:00.000+10:002006-09-23T20:06:00.000+10:00Hey didn't know you were getting L into modelling!...Hey didn't know you were getting L into modelling! How did you decide on that?<BR/><BR/>WRT funds for his schooling have you thought of the Australian Scholarship Group? It's a fund you pay an amount into each month and they you get the money back to cover costs of either highschool or Uni (or whatever by then, coz it's your money)... If you haven't heard of this (then you haven't been around long as a parent, rofl), then you will find an ASG ad in Melbourne's Child, or just about any parenting magasine...<BR/><BR/>Woodend is beautiful, btw! And not too far from the city, many people commute to Melbourne for work from there...No onehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05516581267618212776noreply@blogger.com
