@Laura91 I wouldn’t recommend a Montessori school for any child over 5 years of age. Children from these schools often have very poor literacy skills. You should try Summit Prep which is in the north near cottage. Excellent and passionate ... Read More

The process is quite straight forward - make sure that you have all your documents as per the PO website. The submission of the documents takes a couple of hours but the approval takes about a year. You really don’t need an attorney for this. Read More

We found that in the 30000 to 50000 the furnishings were really poor quality and certainly not the standard of what we were used to in SA. Obviously if you’re in the 70000 plus bracket then the furnishings are better. Read More

Most rentals are furnished but you can negotiate with the owner. Bringing furniture or not really depends on how long you’re planning on staying here. So if you’re going to stay 3+ years then I think it’s better to bring your own ... Read More
